We came to Montreal from Ottawa during the holiday, & our friends highly recommended this restaurant. We're so glad we came!
From the moment we walked in, the warm & welcoming atmosphere made us feel like we were visiting the home of close family friends. The staff were incredibly kind, friendly, & genuinely hospitable.
The food was absolutely delicious. Every bite tasted like authentic homemade Persian food. The aroma of saffron & rose water brought back so many wonderful memories of my time in Iran. It was comforting, flavorful, & prepared with so much care.
We tried the eggplant Tahchin & Albaloo Polo, & both were outstanding. The flavors reminded me of my mom's cooking, which is the highest compliment I can give.
We will definitely be coming back, & we'll happily recommend this restaurant to all of our friends. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!
When planning to travel Montreal, I was very excited to find & try the cuisine of an Iranian/Persian restaurant. Maison Inja was the first Iranian restaurant to show up in my search in Apple Maps, so I decided to go there. Best choice I could I have made. The restaurant environment was very beautiful & the servers were very friendly. The food itself was AMAZING, both in looks, taste, & texture. I'd say it was meal fit for the Shah & the Shahbanu. I truly recommend this place for anyone looking for traditional Iranian cuisine & look forward to visiting again someday.
Une expérience vraiment exceptionnelle !
Ma femme & moi avons passé une magnifique soirée. Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été accueillis chaleureusement par Layla & Helos, qui ont tout fait pour que nous nous sentions les bienvenus. Layla, avec sa gentillesse, son sourire & son attention sincère, apporte une touche très spéciale à l'expérience. Helos a également été très attentionné & professionnel. Tous deux se sont assurés que nous passions un excellent moment.
L'ambiance est chaleureuse, élégante & nous fait découvrir l'esprit de la Perse dès que l'on franchit la porte.
Quant à la nourriture, elle était tout simplement exceptionnelle : la meilleure cuisine perse que j'aie goûtée jusqu'à présent. Les plats étaient aussi délicieux que magnifiquement présentés.
Une équipe formidable, un cadre magnifique & une cuisine remarquable. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant à tous ceux qui souhaitent vivre une authentique expérience perse.
Atmosphere : The decor of the restaurant was beautiful. I was surprised we were the only two in the restaurant for dinner on a Friday.
Food:My friend & I asked the waitress for her suggestions on what we should order; we ordered exactly what was recommended. The taste of the food was definitely good. Unfortunately both my friend & I fell ill with what seems to be food poisoning shortly leaving the restaurant.
Price: very steep. Vodka lemonade priced at $24 a glass. About $200 for one shared appetizer & & two mains.
Really outstanding dining! Persian traditional cuisine made with love & so flavorful! The quality, presentation & flavors were on par with a very fine dining experience, only without pretentiousness.
It felt like an old world experience & such warm service - as if you were invited to someone's home. Honestly, the best Persian restaurant across all the ones I had dined at in many different cities. Their saffron rice, dolmas, even salad, not to mention fessenjoon (chicken with walnut sauce) were all outstanding. Highly recommend - if you value quality over the instagrammable hype. 11/10.
I've tried this restaurant again & again, the food is really excellent, & most importantly, the unique decor & the amazing service. It's the chicest Iranian restaurant in Canada & one of the best Iranian restaurants in Montreal. I definitely recommend you try it
Une expérience exceptionnelle, le lieu est magnifique, la décoration, l'ambiance, & la nourriture délicieuse! Les saveurs, magiques. & que dire du service extraordinaire, de la douce Nazia qui nous a traité comme des rois ❤? on s'est senti comme à la maison. Une merveilleuse soirée pour la fête des mères. Merci!! Je recommande
