Les avis sur Nab convergent vers une expérience persane authentique et chaleureuse à Montréal, où les plats sont généreux et savoureux, le riz au safran parfumé et les kebabs tendres comme koobideh ou kebab torsh, et où des spécialités telles que kaleh pacheh et ghormeh sabzi reviennent régulièrement en tête. L'ambiance familiale, le décor soigné, la musique et le service attentif donnent l'impression d'être invité chez des hôtes sincères, ce qui incite souvent les clients à revenir et à recommander l'adresse. Les portions et les prix sont fréquemment jugés généreux et raisonnables, la qualité des ingrédients élevée et l'authenticité des saveurs bien présente. Quelques retours mentionnent toutefois des améliorations possibles sur la rapidité du service lors de grandes tables et sur la formation du personnel, mais dans l'ensemble Nab est décrit comme un joyau caché et une adresse incontournable pour ceux qui recherchent une cuisine iranienne maison et réconfortante.
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.
The food was excellent, especially the lamb kebab which was very juicy & tasty. The rice covered with saffron. The staff were very friendly & the welcoming was very warm.
I highly recommend this restaurant.

Those who gave this restaurant high ratings have probably never been to a good restaurant or tasted good food in their lives!
The restaurant environment was extremely cramped, dark, & damp. The tables were covered with cloth, & the host was wiping his cloth directly over the table covering! Instead of using disposable sanitary table covers or having glass tables that can be properly cleaned with disinfectant!
The chairs were old & wobbly. The soup was overly thick. The doogh was sweet! The koobideh kebab was greasy & small. The rice was very low quality basmati. The mirza ghasemi was undercooked & had no distinctive aroma or flavor. & finally, the restroom was absolutely not clean at all!
Yet we paid the highest price - even compared to restaurants in Toronto!
Nab is a warm, family-run Persian restaurant that immediately makes you feel welcome. You can tell there's real care behind the food here. The father of the family personally prepares the kebabs, & the whole team is incredibly kind, patient, & genuinely friendly with customers. Their hospitality feels sincere, not forced, which makes the experience even more enjoyable.
The Iranian rice is outstanding & easily the highlight of the meal. Perfectly cooked, fragrant, & flavorful, with an absolutely delicious crunchy tahdig. The aroma & taste of the rice alone are reason enough to come back - it's truly the restaurant's biggest strength.
The kebabs were good overall. The barg kebab had nice flavor but was slightly on the tough side, while the rest of the food was satisfying & well prepared. To finish, the sholeh zard was excellent - rich in flavor, beautifully balanced, & clearly homemade.
Overall, Nab is a lovely spot for authentic Persian food, especially if you appreciate high-quality Iranian rice, comforting flavors, & heartfelt service. A family business that puts soul into what they serve, & it shows.
Absolutely delicious safron rice with dishes such as chicken skewers, beef, & eggplant beef stew. We were here on New Year's Eve & they had very relaxing live music. Highly recommend!
Absolutely amazing Persian food! Everything was fresh, flavorful, & beautifully prepared. The quality of the ingredients really stands out, & the flavors are authentic & perfectly balanced. The kebabs were tender & delicious, the rice was fragrant & perfectly cooked, & the portions were generous. The atmosphere was warm & welcoming, & the service was attentive & friendly. Definitely one of the best Persian food experiences in Montreal-I'll be coming back for sure!
I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. I ordered the vegan kebab plate & it was delicious & substantial. My friend ordered the koobideh with an extra skewer of lamb which he devoured & enjoyed very much. The main plates come with soup, salad, grilled tomatoes & rice along with toasted bread. I got an extra side of roasted vegetables with my dish. Very chill & relaxed atmosphere. This restaurant's menu is extensive for various diets. I love this as I was able to eat there as a vegan with no issues & left content rather than hungry. The restaurant & washrooms are clean & the art & decor were beautiful. I couldn't stop lookiing at one painting. Our waiter was lovely & made us feel welcomed. This is a great spot for a date, a night out with family or friends. There were even a few kids that we didn't even notice until we paid. They were so well behaved they could put some adults to shame!

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!
After a day of walking around downtown & not agreeing on what to eat I was starving & had a headache. This place was next to where I had gotten a massage earlier in the day & said to my son, that's it we're eating here & we're so glad we did! First time having Persian for me but my son has had it with his friends & said this is the best he's had.
We all ordered the Koobideh (beef skewers) that were tender & juicy. & that little triangle bread cooked into the rice was like a drug it was so good. Portion was more than enough.
We also had the eggplant appetizer with the fried onions. It came with a pillowy bread. We devoured it. & finished off with the saffron ice cream which was part creamy but more icy. Very rose scented. I never had it before but definitely interesting.
We enjoyed the decor, the family run business with mom & dad cooking & the son tending to us. He was so nice & helpful. Too bad we live 6 hours away!
If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would. The husband & wife that own the place (the wife is also the cook!) are very welcoming & the sweetest. I ordered takeout for a small meal, & the food more than exceeded my expectations. I got the mirza ghasemi with a side of saffron rice & the damnosh tea.
Mirza ghasemi: I don't think any words I use to describe this dish can do it justice. The eggplant was melt-in-your-mouth & had the most amazing grilled/smoky flavor, & it was made even better by the egg. Highly recommend getting this.
Saffron rice: To me, rice is supplementary to a meal & can even be omitted. But this saffron rice could be standalone. The flavor that came from the saffron & the scorchedness...I think my heart stopped a little.
Domnosh: This was such a pleasure to drink. Such delicate flavors & subtly sweet.
The food & drinks here are so good & made with such attention & care. It's really worth checking out.
The food is so good honestly I have nothing negative to say about this place. Love the atmosphere & I love the tahdig rice with the koobideh, their soup is always very delicious. I appreciate they also accommodate for people that fasts & brings cheese, bread & dates so we can break our fast. lovely place!

The lamb shank was really well-cooked & flavourful, I really loved the saffron rice with zereshk on the side of the rice. The staff were polite & attentive, which made for a pleasant experience.
This restaurant/experience was simply amazing. The outside does not look very appealing, but DO NOT think twice about it! Once inside, you'll see a very nice & clean looking restaurant. The waitress was very friendly & answered all our questions about Persian food very attentively. The ambiance was really nice. I brought my date here & she loved it. There wasn't too many people around so it was very quiet to converse, & the Persian music was very lovely background. We had their homemade bread which was very light, with two dipping sauces. We ordered the eggplant/onion which was very tasty. My gf had vegetarian shish kebab with rice & I had chicken with barberry. They were both excellent, super hot, & delicious. The portions were perfect so that you were filled. The chicken was very well cooked, but still soft & juicy. We ended with a tea. Service was excellent, food came promptly & was very well presented. We were very impressed & will be definitely be returning. In general, the food was very healthy which was also a plus for us!
Woow:What a amazing night.We had in YAS restaurant .We were 6 people & the food was awesome, excellent & very good service especially the food that I like was KHORESHT FESENJON & LAMP SHANK with basmati rice. At the end we had for dessert BASTANI (safferan ice cream mix with pestach)
We had a BD party. The only thing that we like is the ambiance - calm & authentic.. for this the resto get 1+ stars from 5....
First of all when we choose from the menu & wanted to order the waiter said that we're missing this, that & so on..She was very aggressive from the beginning, the food was not as described in the menu & rice was totally cold. I ordered "beef stew goulash with beans" there were 2 small pieces of meat - 1 beef & another one chicken!.... when waiter asked why there is a chicken in beef stew she couldn't explain & seemed very mad that we asked.... My friend order "white fish"... they served salmon.... when we told her that this is not a white fish again she was very mad... Another friend ordered the same like me, the beef stew, it was just 1 piece of meat- chicken with skin!.......... also, There were small bones in the salmon....
Dessert: I didn't want too complicate i said - ICEcream... pretty clear... what I received it was some different dessert kind of ice cream but with nuts! I'm allergic to nuts, I didn't asked (forgot the name) I just said icecream & they decide to bring me the one that more expensive...
BILLS: Our friend had total for food 19$... they calculate somehow taxes & 15% tip (by default) & somehow his bill went up to 44$!!!!!!!!!!! 200% tips WTH they said- ooops mistake... but for the rest people they just add 15% tip by default... but the service was terrible! it wasn't mentioned that the tip is by default if we are group more than 7 people..... she said it when we asked why she added 15% tip.... HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!!!! AVOID!!
Hi, We are disappointed you and your guests did not have a pleasant experience. Please note all menu items are subject to availability based on season and supply. Our stew Ghormeh Sabzi is rich in flavor and only contains Grade AAA Canadian beef. As for our Persian ice cream, which is we are the only Persian restaurant to make in house and the most sought after desert, does contain pistachios as indicated in our menu. There are many other items that contains nuts or nut products and these are also clearly indicated. We always expect patrons to advise of any food allergies prior to ordering. Thank you,
