Diba Restaurant is praised for a warm, welcoming atmosphere and high quality Persian cuisine, with fresh, flavorful kebabs, well seasoned dishes, and generous portions served in a stylish, clean setting. The in house bread and tahdig add a comforting, authentic touch, and the service is consistently attentive in a vibe that is both lively and inviting. While some reviews note the prices can be higher than other Persian spots, the overall experience is described as excellent, with many saying it stands among the best Persian dining options in Montreal.
Took the royal platter. Good, generous amount of meat. But I thought WAY too much rice & not enough vegetables. Don't know if it's a cultural tradition but it's just way too much & those on a restricted carbs diet would really appreciate more veggies. The Tiramisu for my friend's birthday was appreciated 👍I'd probably opt more for appetizers only next time as they seem quite interesting - the aubergines was fancy.
Nice atmosphere & good service! Quiet & clean! friendly & polite! The food is well-tasted & of good quality (everything is very fresh & well-cooked)! The portion is good for one! Just a little overpriced in comparison with other Persian restaurants
This was my second time trying Diba, about six months after my first visit. The quality of the food has become even better, & the atmosphere is still great with amazing staff.
I hope you always maintain this level of quality & professionalism. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys high-quality food & a stylish ambiance.
Wishing you continued success!

It's the best Persian restaurant that I have been so far in Montreal. Quality of food is so high. Highly recommended.
After multiple visits I still give my 👍 to quality of the food & service.
Try lamb shank, its my favourite!
Great place for authentic Persian food! The dishes were flavorful, fresh, & reminded me of homemade Iranian meals. The atmosphere was warm & welcoming, & the staff were very friendly. Definitely a nice spot if you're craving delicious Persian cuisine.
Food quality was just okay & the service was slow despite the restaurant being quiet. The most unprofessional part was the payment process. They charged us the wrong amount multiple times, canceled payments by mistake, & even ran after our car asking us to pay again'just in case.' We ended up being charged twice, & it took two weeks to get a refund. Even then, the final amount was still incorrect.it was disappointing that the payment should get that complicated & you charged customer multiple & it is again them to come back for refund with no apology at all!!!

I recently visited Diba Restaurant & had a wonderful experience. The food was fresh, flavorful, & clearly prepared with care. Every dish we tried was well seasoned & beautifully presented. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients.
The atmosphere is warm & welcoming, making it a great place to enjoy a relaxed meal with friends or family. The staff were friendly, attentive, & made sure everything was perfect throughout the visit.
What I appreciated most was the authenticity of the flavors & the generous portions. It truly felt like a place that takes pride in both its food & its service.
I highly recommend Diba Restaurant to anyone looking for delicious food & a pleasant dining experience. I will definitely be coming back again.
I went there all the way from Boucherville for their shishlik & I did not regret it. The place is beautiful & very clean. The high ceiling makes it feel both fancy & cozy. I would definitely go back if they keep the same great service. 😉
Modern, beautifully designed Persian restaurant with tall ceilings & great service. The Torsh kebab is the best in Montreal, hands down. A great touch is that the rice is served individually with TahDig (crispy rice). The Barg & Kubideh were also very good. The freshly baked Iranian Taftoon bread that is served with cheese, walnuts & herbs is another huge plus.
Overall, a stylish spot with authentic flavors & a great dining experience.
Restaurant perse absolument délicieux ! Nous y sommes allés deux couples & tout le monde a adoré. Tous les plats étaient savoureux, bien présentés & pleins de goût. Une très belle découverte, nous allons certainement y retourner!
