Hi I went today , the restaurant decoration is nice cozy I do appreciate but I don't like the kebab personally because it taste too much like lamb I am not used to this taste I wished they had not with lamb taste because I am born in Canada not born in Iran I am not used to this taste . But I know majority of iranien don't mind of it & actually love it . Also, the chicken with bone was delicious I love it & recommend & the bread with the cream cheese was good .
I remove points because no soupe or salade like other irannien restaurant that in included you had to pay for it , & the tea usually is free the was no price for the tea in the menu 3$ is alot . Also , the server should let us know in advance if we take another bread it will charge us in advance we should have let know .
We celebrated my & my mom's birthday at Diba restaurant. Their service was Excelent ! & they were all very polite & personable , Ms. Somayeh took care of our table & she was amazing !
From house bread , kashkeh bademjoon & moosir to all the kabobs were tastful 👍🏼🥂
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 had a birthday party in this restaurent. Everyone loved the food & the appetizers. Kebab Barg, joojeh & Koobideh was very delicious & tasty.
The service was excellent. Somayeh khanoom & her equip gave us the best service.
The atmosphere was very family friendly . We had a very memorable night.
This is hands down one of the best Persian restaurants we've tried in Montreal, & we've sampled many over the years. Honestly, it's on par with the really good Persian spots in Toronto.
The food was excellent across the board. Everything was well seasoned & very satisfying, with portions that feel more than fair for the price. The koobideh was juicy & flavorful-not dry at all-& the chicken was beautifully marinated & incredibly tender. The eggplant dishes were also done right, rich & comforting.
What really stood out is how family-friendly the place is. We saw several families with young kids, high chairs were available, & the layout gives plenty of space between tables, which makes dining with children much more enjoyable.
We'd absolutely come back & wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. A true gem in Montreal's Persian food scene.
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.
Expensive but average food, the worst kobideh kebab in Montreal & the weirdest kebab iChenjeh, but good & excellent service. I will definitely never go again.
