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!
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.
We had a great experience at this Iranian restaurant. The food quality was excellent, with authentic flavors & a very pleasant atmosphere. The professional management & warm hospitality of Mr. Kasra & Kiarash are truly commendable & make customers feel welcome.
Special thanks to Somayeh, our waitress, for her fast, attentive, & friendly service.
We will definitely come back & highly recommend this restaurant to others.

We went to Diba on Christmas Day in a large group & ordered a variety of kababs (Shishlik, Bonab, Torsh & Soltani). The food came pretty fast & the service was great. The quality of the meat was good, but it could have been marinated better for more flavour.
An outstanding dining experience from start to finish!🥰
The food was exceptionally flavorful😋beautifully prepared, & truly memorable. The warm ambiance & professional, attentive staff made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone looking to discover top-quality Iranian cuisine in Montreal
I've visited this restaurant twice, & both times the experience was excellent. After a long time, I finally enjoyed truly great Persian food & kebab. The food is delicious, very fresh, & always served hot when it arrives at the table, which really sets this place apart from many other restaurants.
The person serving us was incredibly kind, polite, & friendly, which made the experience even better. Overall, I had a great experience here & would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic & high-quality Persian cuisine.
I had a wonderful experience at Diva Restaurant in Montreal. The service was excellent, the staff were friendly & attentive, & the food quality was amazing. Everything tasted fresh & delicious. The prices were very reasonable for the quality you get. Overall, a fantastic dining experience - I highly recommend this place!
We booked the entire venue for a gathering of 80 guests, & everything was absolutely perfect. From the warm hospitality & the professional, polite staff to the excellent service, beautiful décor, lovely atmosphere, & delicious, high-quality dishes - everything exceeded our expectations.
I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to enjoy amazing food in a beautiful & welcoming setting.
Truly a wonderful experience from start to finish🥰
I had the bonab kebab & it was very disappointing. They also use a low quality rice, which was a big surprise. Atmosphere is good, but I won't try it again.

The restaurant had a beautiful atmosphere, & the food quality was excellent. I had the koobideh, & it tasted really good. The price was also quite reasonable.
First time visiting Montreal! Had dinner with my family (7 of us) & we ordered all kinds of kebabs plus 3 stews. The food was amazing-perfect quality & taste, real Persian flavor, just like homemade 😋. Loved the decoration & the service, everything was great. Really wish we had a place like this in Sydney 😊
Genuinely one of the best persian meals I've had in my life as a persian myself. The rice tastes homemade, the meats are extremely juicy, & it's perfectly seasoned. A lot of restaurants use preservatives & make the meat quality extremely salty so it lasts longer, but I can truthfully say it's so appropriately salted & the flavors are divine. Must try if you're in Montreal
Every visit here has been a wonderful experience. Great quality food, attentive service, & a cozy atmosphere - perfect for both friendly gatherings & special occasions.
