I've tried this place three times, & each time the quality of the food, specifically the Koobideh, was inconsistent. The first time it was awesome, the second time it was inedible. However, due to the positive experience the first time, I gave it another chance, but unfortunately, they disappointed me again with a super mediocre Koobideh. Overall, it's definitely not a place I would recommend, especially for someone trying Persian food for the first time.

I saw the reviews & pictures before, but doesn't do the food justice. My first time at a Persian restaurant & I will definitely be back. Best kababs I've ever had! Pictutres here are the barg & koubideh, better than the stew IMO & I'm not a kebab person usually so that's saying something. The marinated olives in pomegranate & walnut, OMG! (Zaitun parvardeh). Even the salad & soup were delicious. The tea is a must. The only reason for not 5 star across the board is the ambiance/déco but it's about the food for me. It gave cabane a sucre vibes which was fun & family style but not overly romantic or fancy. Again that doesn't take away from the quality of food! Parking was pleasantly easy off a side street, & right next to villa Maria metro stop.

Constructive criticism. Please clean the kitchen a bit more. My canadian friends that I invited, took a picture of part of the kitchen floor under the fridge & the washroom & showed me. I was so embarrassed 😳 A small renovation on the walls & washroom with a modest persian decoration will do the job. You can turn this place around & have much more customers 😏 I'm hoping one day to come back & see the changes you've made. I would love for this restaurant to get to a higher level. The food is ok....the rest has to catch up.

"Montreal's oldest Persian gem - a true culinary delight! The kebab koobideh here is unparalleled, perfectly seasoned & grilled to perfection. The rich flavors & historic charm make this restaurant a must-visit for any food enthusiast."

We did takeout & since I'm half Iranian & from Toronto where we have the best Persian food, I can say that this is definitely the best koobideh (juicy & tasty) & Persian food in Montreal, we'll definitely be going back, everything was fresh & good quality & tasty, & they were very nice & gave us an extra side complimentary & extra tomatoes. The takeout was packaged very clean & nice & easy to carry out too - it was still juicy & hot & great after driving it home. I'm really happy that I finally tried this place & found a good Persian restaurant in Montreal, the only one I will ever eat at again. I gave it a 5 for Montreal but because it's the best in Montreal, but comparing it to California or Toronto - which has the best Persian food in the world... it would have gotten a 3.5.

This is an amazing find in NDG. I was going to another Persian restaurant, but now, will only frequent this one. If people would read the reviews first, they would see that the specialty is grilled meats. Vegetarians may not have many choices, although there can be grilled vegetables! Also, I did not see a problem with language here. We all speak (or should) both English & French in Montreal. Perhaps those not served in French & unwilling to switch to English should try Iranian.

Great service & good dishes overall, you can't go wrong with this restaurant if you are new to Persian cuisine.
The grilled meats are well seasoned & nicely cooked. The rice is pretty good, but I've had better at other similar restaurants.

The staff is pretty nice & helpful. I am frankly surprised that some are complaining about their French speaking skills... This is NDG, it is farfetched to expect everyone to be proficient in French.

All in all, great place.
