I recently had the chance to dine at Cafe Restaurant Nab, & it was such a memorable experience-both in terms of food & atmosphere.

The highlight of the meal was definitely the kebabs-perfectly grilled, juicy, & full of flavor. The koobideh was tender & well-seasoned, & the barg had that beautiful char while staying incredibly soft. You can really tell they pay attention to quality & authenticity.

The tahdig (crispy rice) was a standout-golden, crunchy on top, & soft underneath, just the way it should be. Paired with grilled tomatoes, fresh herbs, & a light salad, the whole plate felt balanced & satisfying.

The presentation was also lovely, served on traditional-style platters that added to the overall Persian dining experience. The ambiance felt warm & inviting, making it a great spot for both a casual dinner & a special night out.

If I had to mention one thing, it would be that portions are generous-so come hungry or be ready to share!

Overall, I'd highly recommend Cafe Restaurant Nab to anyone looking for authentic Persian cuisine in Montreal. I'll definitely be coming back.

My friend hosted a singing birthday party for about 60 people. The restaurant atmosphere was warm & friendly. The food was served buffet style with many options & all well-prepared & presented. It was delicious. They served many different types of infused teas. The chef & staff were very accommodating to the event schedule & had everything ready to serve at the appropriate times.

Excellent all around!!
