We went to café Toranj for an all ladies gathering/getting together for two birthdays. The food was unbelievably delicious. The portions & the different flavours just came together in such amazing harmony. The mocktails were to die for. One of our guests had 3 of them in one sitting because they were so good. We ordered a mixture of all of the food & nothing was rated last. They were all very tasty. The service was impeccable & very detail oriented. The atmosphere was very cozy & friendly. Our server was very sweet & patient with all of our questions. Overall, it's definitely a place I'd go back to.

Loved this place! The café is beautiful, clean, & very hygienic, with a warm & welcoming staff. Everything we tried, from breakfast to dessert, was absolutely delicious. I highly recommend the Nargeesi Omelette, Albaloo polo, & the Kadaif Cake. They also have a lovely patio, which is perfect for outdoor seating. Definitely worth a visit!

We came from Toronto & randomly found this restaurant, & I can confidently say there's no Iranian restaurant in Toronto like this even with all the amazing Persian restaurants there. Absolutely incredible food & experience!

Les plats étaient savoureux & si joliment présentés! Notre tablée en a commandé plusieurs que nous avons partagé, pour notre grand bonheur. Les boissons sans alcool sont délicieuses aussi.
