Un café iranien exceptionnel à Montréal, Café Toranj, qui m'a invité à un véritable voyage en Iran. Dès que je suis entré, l'accueil chaleureux du personnel, l'ambiance conviviale & la musique traditionnelle iranienne ont créé une atmosphère unique. Chaque bouchée des plats, en particulier des khoreshs (ragoûts) savoureux, m'a transporté aux quatre coins de l'Iran avec des saveurs authentiques & inoubliables. La gestion est excellente & a amélioré le service, le rendant bien meilleur qu'avant. Une expérience culinaire, un voyage culturel à ne pas manquer !

Iranian food, Farsi culture. The food was generous & tasty. The quality & selection of tea is outstanding. Service is so very friendly. The atmosphere is eclectic & funky. The food is Iranian, (so don't expect egg rolls or hamburgers) & may seem unfamiliar to many, but the pride of the service & yearning to share their culture makes for a very soft landing as you stretch your horizons. The food is not cheap, but is all high quality & certainly of fair value all things considered.

Really lovely atmosphere & the food is very good. The only downside is that it is quite expensive compared to cafes around but its worth a try if you live around & want to try something different!
