Always an absolute delight! From the appetizers to the coffees, smoothies, breakfast & meals. This café is an absolute gym. It is a little taste of the Middle East in NDG. The service is impeccable, the food is heavenly, & the tea is exotic & luxurious. & arrive early so you can find yourself a nice antique wing chair by the window.

We visited this Iranian brunch spot & had a great experience. The place was cozy & welcoming, & the food was fresh & well-prepared.

We tried two dishes:

Nashtaei 2 - A mix of potato pudding (Do Piazeh), lentil soup, a Persian-style omelette, & pinto beans, served with tea or coffee. Everything was flavorful & comforting.

Nashtaei 3 - A savory plate with sausage & tomato mixture (Bandari), boiled eggs, potato pudding (Do Piazeh), & pinto beans, also paired with tea or coffee.

The service was friendly & excellent, & the restaurant had a relaxed atmosphere & cozy ambience.

One thing we missed was the saffron ice cream, but we'll definitely be back to try it.

If you enjoy good food with rich flavors, this place is worth a visit! Highly recommended.

What a great discovery! We stopped by in a rush in the morning. It was 9h30, & they were not even open, but the guy let us in & served us coffee. I had the almond/pistacchio latte, & it was one of the best lattes I've had in a while!
We went back later after our appointment for ?lunch. The food was simply amazing, tasted delicious, a generous portion, well made, tasted like homemade food but very well presented. My mom had a colorful rice & lamb, & I had the celery/mint lamb. Both were delicious.
The desserts were also very good.
The service was great, & the server was very friendly.
I highly recommend the place for coffee & lunch.

I recently visited Cafe Toranj with a friend & I had such a fantastic experience! From the moment we arrived, I felt like royalty! The atmosphere was warm & inviting, with a cozy vibe that made it the perfect spot for a relaxed meal. The staff is incredibly friendly & attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed & more! I truly felt catered to!

The food was absolutely delicious, & the Zéphyr dish was a standout! Full of vibrant flavors, fresh ingredients, & perfectly balanced! It was a true delight! Every bite was a treat, & I could tell the dish was made with care & attention to detail. The coffee was also fantastic, rounding off the experience beautifully.

If you want to feel pampered while enjoying amazing food, I highly recommend Cafe Toranj.
I can't wait to return for more of their incredible dishes!

Thank you for such an amazing experience!

Really delicious & simple meals that come out in style. I tried the Gheimeh Nesar Ageau which is a lamb rice plate with middle eastern dried fruits & spices. It was really fresh & tasted homemade. Not too strong of a flavor, it was delicious though. & then i also tried for the first time a saffron decaf latte with soy milk. It was a bit earthier & richer taste them coffee on is own. It just masked all the sweetness & made the coffee taste more mature to my palette. It was really good! This Iranian/Persian cafe is beautifully designed & perfect for hanging out or a date & to have Turkish coffee, tea, share plates & desserts & more. One small note is that there is some cleaning that could be done & service is not so attentive... you will have to get up & ask to be waited on. Also, plates are a bit pricey, but they are filling. My plate could've fed two easily.

Went with my girlfriend, we both liked the food. large portions. Staff were friendly. Would recommend. It cost around $45 for us to have a full meal with coffee.

They were disorganized behind the counter, waited more than 20 minutes for a tea & coffee.

I can't believe I only just discovered this gem... such a beautiful warm place to have coffee & cake or a meal with friends. The Iranian coffee was excellent (& I am picky about my coffee) & the toranj tea & saffron cake were exquisite. The service was a bit hit or miss... the gentleman was very helpful & welcoming but the woman was apathetic. Great vibes & excellent food, we had such a memorable time, can't wait to come back!!
