Reviewers describe Fardin Express Restaurant as a warm, intimate Persian dining spot with friendly, attentive staff who make guests feel like family and a cozy environment that is both welcoming and clean. The food receives high praise for freshness and flavor, with standout dishes such as Kabab Royale featuring Screw Joje, Kobideh, and Zafran Rice, as well as Joojeh Kabab and a comforting Ash soup, all served in generous portions. The atmosphere is enhanced by a lovely outdoor terrace and a price quality balance that many call fair. On a few visits the staff were repeatedly noted for courtesy and hospitality, and many say they would definitely return and recommend the place to friends. A minority of reviews mention a decline in flavor and longer waiting times, suggesting a desire to return to previous standards, while others highlight consistent quality and the importance of making a reservation due to popularity. In any case, the restaurant is described as a gem for Persian cuisine with high quality ingredients and a strong focus on service that makes dining feel welcoming and memorable.
"Iranian kebab is an unforgettable experience, both in taste & hospitality. The kebabs are perfectly grilled, tender, & bursting with a unique blend of spices that highlight the rich flavors of the meat. Accompanied by saffron rice, grilled tomatoes, & fresh herbs, every bite is a delicious journey. The service makes it even better; staff are genuinely warm & attentive, making you feel like a welcomed guest. The combination of incredible food & exceptional service makes Iranian kebab a must-try for anyone looking for authentic & satisfying cuisine."
One of my favourite stops for a good kebab & Aash. Great selection of persian food staples at reasonable prices. The service is ALWAYS good. Halal! Delicious & affordable...which is why it's my go to.
After a tiring day, I didn't know which restaurant to choose for lunch. To be honest, I initially felt like I wanted something simple. However, it turned out to be the opposite, & it even had better quality than some other restaurants in Montreal. The portion of the food was great, & the kebab was perfectly cooked, juicy, & outstanding. The quality of the rice was excellent. The only suggestion I can make is that it would be better if the amount of salad served with the food were increased. The manager's behavior was excellent & polite. The restaurant's environment was clean & pleasant. Access to the bus was good.

Visiting our friends in this neighborhood for the weekend, & stopped into Fardin Express for some food. Everything is very fresh & clean, amazing portion size, & the staff was very thoughtful & considerate! We will definitely be back!
The food was very fresh & high quality & was ready really quick. The services & atmosphere was more than 5stars. Highly recommended this location. Thank you guys for making Nostalgic time for us, feeling being in Tehran.
Very, very tasty. The kebab & salad seemed ideal. We used to treat ourselves to a restaurant in downtown, but now we know that there is an excellent, inexpensive & tasty restaurant near our home.
