Across reviews, Grill Sélect is praised for consistently delicious Persian and Greek offerings, with juicy koobideh, barg, and joojeh, generous portions, and authentic flavors that many consider among the best in Montreal, along with a clean welcoming setting and a friendly professional staff. Takeout and dine in are both well supported, and the menu includes new items like ribs while keeping strong value. The service is described as attentive and the atmosphere is family friendly, with the option to bring your own wine. A few reviews mention a rare hiccup such as a gohrme sabzi that was lower in quality and smaller in portion, and on busy days wait times or pricing concerns arise. Overall the place is described as reliable for kebab lovers and for those seeking comforting Persian and Greek dishes, with consistent quality and care in preparation that leads to repeat visits.
Craving persian food, I went for take out , one order of Kebab Koobideh & a Greek salad.
I was not impressed at all! The rice was cold/wet as if old & reheated, the Koobideh were thick tasteless & chewey as if also reheated.
Very disappointed to say the least - $27.59
It's highly recommended.
This restaurant is very clean.
Staff is professional & friendly.
We had koobideh, barg & joojeh, all were so juicy & delicious. For the quality, I can say it's one of the best persian food in Montreal.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was truly disappointing. The food was not good at all, & the kebab koobideh was particularly awful , lacking flavor cant even taste meat in it, & nothing close to what proper Persian cuisine should taste like I believe it was full of fat instead of meat. Considering the premium prices they charge, the quality was shockingly low & easily the worst I've ever seen for a kebab restaurant. If you care about good food & authentic Persian flavor, I strongly recommend avoiding this place. There are far better options elsewhere.
Mon expérience avait bien commencé : excellent accueil de la serveuse, restaurant propre & calme. Nous avons commandé deux plats. La salade grecque au poulet manquait de fraîcheur, était très acide, & le poulet avait une odeur désagréable. Pour le kebab koobideh, l'assaisonnement de la viande hachée était trop léger : on ne sentait que le goût de la viande.
Au moment de payer, le pourboire affiché sur la facture était calculé avant taxes, mais le montant prélevé l'a été avec les taxes. Je trouve cette pratique malhonnête : non seulement elle contrevient aux règles, mais si on m'avait informée clairement - d'autant que le service était bon - je l'aurais acceptée.
Today, for the birthday of my wonderful soon to be brother in law, we had the most delicious koobideh here. It must have been God himself that was preparing the food through the cook, because the chicken, barg & koobideh were all out of this word, heavenly I'd say. Highly recommended!

This has been my favorite spot for Persian kebabs since 2020. If you're looking for authentic flavors, this is the place to go. Everything from the appetizers to the desserts is consistently excellent. They truly offer great value for the money you spend. I used to be a devoted fan of their koobideh, but I can confidently say that their kebab torsh is absolutely outstanding now.
I recently ordered takeout from Grill Sélect & tried the kebab Koobideh & kebab Soltani. The staff was warm & welcoming, & the cashier was friendly, taking time to suggest side dishes. Even though I was only there briefly, I noticed how cozy & clean the restaurant was-a great first impression! As for the food, it was absolutely delicious! The portions were generous, & everything tasted fresh & full of flavor. Grill Sélect truly brings authentic Persian flavors to the table. I can't wait to try more from their menu! Highly recommended for quality Persian cuisine.
Tonight, we were there with our friend & our kids. The food was really delicious with very good quality. Our kids & our friend's kids were playing & talking together loudly, but the restaurant staff were so patient with us. We truly appreciate their kindness, & patience & also very happy & happy with the food & good vibe of the restaurant. Joojeh, koobideh, mahicheh, ash, everything was really good. Deserves 5 stars. Thanks.�
