Reviews describe Ispahan as a warm and welcoming spot with a vibrant, traditional atmosphere that many feel is like a home away from home. The food is repeatedly praised for freshness, richness, and thoughtful preparation, with particular acclaim for Mirza Ghasemi and other authentic Persian dishes. The dining experience is enhanced by friendly staff and lively entertainment, including belly dancing and a DJ, which many say adds to the fun and makes it a good choice for celebrations and group nights. The ambiance and decor are described as beautiful, contributing to a sense of occasion along with consistently high quality. Some comments note that service can fall short of expectations in an expensive restaurant, and one review suggests it is not the best Persian option in Montreal, but the overall sentiment remains that the combination of flavorful food and engaging atmosphere makes it memorable.
Ispahan in Montreal offers exceptional Persian food & an incredibly kind staff! It's a must-try for delicious, authentic dishes in a warm atmosphere. The staff & management are welcoming, & the experience includes
a fantastic DJ & an astonishing belly dance performance, all paired with delicious, authentic food. We had a wonderful time & are grateful for the memorable night created for our family.

last night I had an amazing night. The food was so delicious. The owner of the restaurant was really kind & friendly. The vibe was awesome. For sure I choose it again & again
Last night, we had an amazing experience at the Ispahan restaurant. The atmosphere was very warm & lively. The owners were extremely kind. The food was good, & everything, from the drinks to the service, was excellent. I usually don't write reviews, but I decided to write a good one for this top-notch Iranian restaurant. Thank you for your warm hospitality!
Me & my wife spent New Years Eve (Special Event with a set menu) at the Restaurant & we had a wonderful time bringing in 2025. Everyone was so wonderful, friendly, including the staff. The food was amazing, the live entertainment included a DJ, & a dancer. We recommend visiting this restaurant & we would come back next time we are visiting Montreal. It's amazing! Thank you for making our New Years Eve more special.
Great place to experience Persian food, fantastic koobideh kebab, excellent service & very friendly staff. They have music, DJ & dance performances every Saturday night! Everything was fresh & delicious. We tried koobideh, doogh (yogurt drink) & Shiraz salad. The food also came with a very delicious soup. We loved the experience, it's a pity they're only open 3 nights a week.

wonderful experience! The staff were warm & welcoming. It was our first time celebrating Yalda Night with my little daughter, & we had an amazing time. Special thanks to Mr. Erfan for being thoughtful & giving us a warm & comfortable spot. A truly delightful place!
First of all 5 stars for the Clean Wide Toilet! The staff was friendly & helpful specially : Dina Like the grilled option , but the rice wasn't delicious ( need more oil(fat) & Zaafaron) .. The salad was a sample not real portion for the mix plate.( like the delicious sauce of the salad ) Didn't like the appetizer ( eggplant with tomato) but my family liked it. The cream brûlée should be with zaafron but no taste for it ! Only colour! Good quality of meat but I don't know if I would repeat it due to the price. 200$ for 3 ! I think it's bit pricey. But nice to try it .. was in our list.
If you want to experience what a hospitable persian home feels like, this place will do that! What a delightful little family owned/operated restaurant. Very authentic, owners are just too cute! The food was all delicious, literally! we enjoyed the mixer plate with the makhloot starter. The yogurt sauce was to die for!! We had an amazing time & the way the owner lady comes to get you to dance was very persian of her! Haha We all loved it!! ❤️ & always fun to see a belly dancer.
Resto qui gagne à être connu. Petite perle persane (malheureusement) un peu à l'écart des autres restos de la rue du Centre à Pointe-Saint-Charles. Vraiment un festin à chaque fois ! Cuisine parfumée & gourmande. Service chaleureux. Les patrons sont sur place & viennent s'enquérir de notre expérience. Je recommande fortement.
We booked appetizers & desserts for a wedding of 230 people. The service was unbelievable. They worked with us on quantities & delivery/set up. The food & presentation were amazing. Have also dined in restaurant twice & will definitely go back with friends. Special shout out to Erfan. Thanks for everything!

We celebrated my husband's birthday last night. It was beyond fabulous. Delicious food, great ambiance, the belly dancer was elegant & gracious. We felt so welcome & this is really a great place!! The owner danced the night away with us. It was very special.
I had a fantastic experience at Ispahan! The service was outstanding, thanks to Arsalan, who took great care of us. The shrimp was incredible-fresh, flavorful, & perfectly cooked. A big thank you to Arsalan & the team for making our visit so memorable. Highly recommend!
I recently started a vegetarian lifestyle. At first I was hesitate to go to a persian restaurant but I relize there was many vegetarian/ vigen options in their menu. Also the chef came to our table & offered me to modify one of their signature dishes to accommodate me. Really good experience, definitely recommending it.
