Certainly one of the best Persian restaurants I've ever tried in North America. Trying it for the first time, I was a bit hesitant...a rate of 4.9 (from 250 reviews seemed a bit suspicious) but I am so glad I came over my doubts & tried it. Gladly & proudly give it a full 5 star rating myself & will certainly will go there again in my next trips to Montreal.

I really enjoyed the koobideh, it was cooked perfectly & tasted amazing. The only thing that could be improved was the rice. Overall, a great experience!
Excellent & worth the small detour. The owner needs to spend a bit more time training service staff. I say this to encourage improvement & contribute to the success of this business. The food quality was very good & I was with two Iranians who know their Persian food. Keep up the great work & best of luck.
