⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hands down the best Persian restaurant in Montréal! Diba is an absolute gem. The food was simply amazing. We had Shirazi Salad, Kashk-E-Bademjan, Koobideh Kebab, & Baghali Polo, & every dish was bursting with authentic flavors. The vibe of the restaurant was so warm & inviting, with all the staff being welcoming & super friendly. A special shoutout to our waiter, Armine, who was incredibly attentive & always served us with a big smile. His excellent service truly elevated our experience. I'm not Persian, but I've tried Persian cuisine in many countries & even had the privilege of dining with Persian families. Let's just say I know my way around Persian food, & Diba exceeded all my expectations. I recommend this restaurant without hesitation & will, without a doubt, be coming back. If you're in Montréal & love Persian food, or just amazing food in general, Diba is a must-visit!

Today, I visited Diba Restaurant for the first time & had a truly wonderful experience. The most remarkable aspect of this restaurant was its exceptional, professional, & courteous staff. Additionally, the spacious layout ensured we didn't feel crowded or disturb neighboring tables. A standout feature was the way the rice was served individually, paired with perfectly crispy Tahdig-it was absolutely delightful!
So far, this has been the best Iranian restaurant I've visited in Montreal in terms of interior design & food quality. The staff is professional, & the food is excellent. I hope they maintain this level of quality. Mahsa was so friendly & professional.
The best Iranian restaurant you can find in Montreal. Food was perfect, service was very good & the staff was friendly & nice. I would highly recommend this.
Wonderful new classy Iranian restaurant in NDG. Very nice staff including our waitress Mahsa & service was also timely - both to be seated & to get food. Food was excellent, flavourful & not spicy. Tables of different sizes to accommodate large versus small groups (we were 9). Clean & pretty decor. Not too loud. So happy to have this restaurant so close to home!
This Persian restaurant is an absolute gem! The food is authentic & bursting with flavor, from perfectly seasoned kababs to fragrant saffron rice. The ambiance is warm & inviting.
