The Sultan & Torsh kabob were incredible. Way better quality & flavour than bonab & behest. Price was $135 for two people after the tip including a pitcher of Aryan. Only complaint is to use an olive or avocado oil instead of canola. The rice gave us heartburn.

This Persian restaurant in Montreal is hands down the best, you can tell they put a lot of effort into it. The quality is top-notch & the service is excellent. They're really doing their best, so I highly recommend Diba Restaurant.
Best welcome food ever!
They make their own fresh bread & serve it with a delicious cheese. Kashkebademjun was perfect!!! I mean Perfect!!!! & I loved those NoonKhamei as a dessert.
Thanks for all your service
The meat (barg) was good! Family vibe, spacious. Service was ok.
However….rice quality was very poor, too greasy (probably to compensate for low quality basmati rice).
Location has a plain & modern design (very much subjective, not my favorite)!
Diba is worth the trip! A warm, inviting spot where food quality matches great service. The kebab torsh was exceptionally tender, & every dish was beautifully presented-true respect for customers. Well done, Diba
One of the best Persian restaurants in town-no exaggeration. Not only is the food outstanding, but the ambiance & décor are equally extraordinary.
From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with freshly baked homemade bread & cheese, served in true Persian style. It tasted like heaven.
For our appetizer, we ordered kashk-e bademjan, which was incredibly fresh, with every ingredient clearly made from scratch. For the main course, we tried kebab torsh, served with crispy tahdig & authentic Persian rice. The flavors were rich, & the portion was generous.
The staff was exceptionally kind & attentive, making the experience even better. If you're looking for a truly authentic Persian dining experience, this place is a must-visit!
