Overall, Café Toranj is described as a warm, welcoming Persian cafe with beautiful decor and a cozy atmosphere, where the food is frequently praised for rich, authentic flavors, aromatic spices, and generous portions, with standout dishes such as fesenjoon, lamb shank, and ghambar polo variations, as well as vegetarian options; the tea and desserts receive acclaim and the service is noted as attentive and friendly by many, though a few visits mention slower or uneven service and occasional missteps; the ambience, live music, and brunch offerings add to its appeal, making it a popular spot for gatherings and comforting meals.
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.

Absolutely loved this place. Went in on a Saturday around 1pm & had a vegetarian feast in a'to be shared' combo. Sublime! Service was also very warm & excellent. I felt good, zen just being in there. Fabulous! Check them out - so worth the trip!
A nice, cozy Persian café with warm atmosphere. The aroma of the food was super enticing, but I only got a lovely Persian cookie with tea this time. 😋The servers were very attentive & kind, & the herbal tea selection was quite impressive.
I do love the foods here, mostly Albaloo polo & Ghanbar polo become my favorite meals. If you are from Shiraz, you will like them here very much, they have a list of foods from Shiraz ❤?
There are lots of gluten free options. The server is kind & attentive. The seats are cozy & comfy. The food was really wonderful. Everything is delicious, but the fesenjan was out of this world good, & the pistachio & almond latte is definitely worth a try. What a cozy lovely delight of a place.
They have a good vibe & service
Persian Foods quality is good & fresh & they have very delicious & creative tastes of persian cocktails with out alcohol.
Très décevant. La nourriture n'était vraiment pas bonne. On aurait dit du riz réchauffé au micro-ondes. Dès que nous avons passé la commande, nous avons clairement entendu le micro-ondes partir, & ce à deux reprises pour nos deux plats.
En plus, la cuisinière était assise juste derrière nous pendant tout le souper, ce qui rendait l'ambiance très malaisante.
Payer environ 40 $ pour deux plats manifestement réchauffés au micro-ondes est extrêmement décevant.
Autre point négatif : aucun service en français, seulement en anglais, ce qui est surprenant pour un restaurant à Montréal.
The atmosphere was amazing! The cafe is so beautifully decorated with Persian art & furniture. The food was so good, everything was insanely aromatic. The tea is absolutely wonderful: perfect flavour & perfect presentation. The service was impeccable. The whole place feels very welcoming.
The foods have good quality & taste, the atmosphere is friendly & calm, They serve delicious cakes & desserts. It's a kind of nice place for gathering because you can enjoy live music.
