About

Chez Hailar serves an authentic array of Iranian culinary traditions centered on aromatic saffron-infused basmati rice and expertly grilled skewers. The menu features signature kabobs seasoned with vibrant spices alongside slow-cooked stews that highlight the depth of Persian flavor profiles. Patrons encounter a specialized selection of traditional appetizers such as mast-o-khiar and robust vegetable-based dishes prepared according to halal requirements. This establishment integrates the relaxed atmosphere of a café with the foundational elements of Iranian hospitality, providing a focused environment for those seeking traditional skewers and hearty comfort plates. Every component, from the marinated proteins to the freshly baked flatbreads, follows time-honored preparation methods to maintain ingredient integrity. The setting remains functional and direct, emphasizing the consistency of the flavors rather than decorative flourish for a straightforward culinary encounter.

The service was impeccable, with knowledgeable staff who guided us through the menu, I'd never try any other pizzas, the crust was light & crispy with a big load of toppings.

Absolutely loved this pizza place! 🍕 Their mini pizza was my favorite - perfectly cooked, full of flavor, & made even better with their homemade base sauce, which tasted fresh & unique. You can really tell they put care into their ingredients. The atmosphere was warm & welcoming, & the staff were very friendly. Also, don't miss their Persian desserts - they were delicious & definitely worth trying after the meal. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great pizza & a different, authentic taste experience!

Je suis tombé par hasard sur cette sandwicherie au centre-ville car j'avais une envie pressant d'uriner. J'étais un peu sceptique car c'était la première fois. Mais honnêtement, they made my day. Le sandwich était excellent: emballage fancy, pain très frais, la sauce assez pour faciliter la mastication, les légumes frais, & la viande très tendre. Le smoothie pistachio & avocat est définitivement la cerise sur le gâteau. Il doit sûrement être un best seller 😍 Trop onctueux & trop délicieux. En plus, l'équipe est très chaleureux & l'environnement propre & calme. Je compte refaire cette expérience mais avec la famille & les amis. Trop hâte d'amener ma femme aussi, elle va capoter. Merci de cette expérience exceptionnelle
