About us
Restaurant Rumi offers you a culinary experience of the Silk Road that once crossed Central Asia and the Middle East. A route that linked cities, oases and markets... great traditions, formidable kingdoms.
The Silk Road was also the route of spices, generous in fragrance and flavor. We invite you to be inspired by the spirit of the travelers, merchants and pilgrims who, for centuries, exchanged goods, riches and important cultural elements.
A spirit of discovery and openness.
We aim to create a hospitable atmosphere conducive to meaningful encounters. A setting in which to take the time to restore oneself in the sense of regaining strength and meaning.
As far as possible, our cuisine favors local, organic and sustainable agriculture. All the meat we serve is halal.
We give priority to fresh, local produce.

Atmosphère agréable avec un service hors pair & excellent repas…!!

I ate so well yesterday 😋
I was genuinely surprised by how generous the food portions were. The dishes were flavorful & tasty, with a beautiful balance of sweetness, salt, & seasoning.
The decor & lighting immediately immerse you in the restaurant's traditional ambiance. There were live performers playing traditional music, which made the experience even more special.
We also had the traditional tea service, which left me in awe-it was such a beautiful & intentional moment.
The earthy flavors, generous portions, rich tastes, decor, & music truly transported me into their world & culture. I believe it's Persian, though I wish I had confirmed because the experience was unforgettable.
They absolutely nailed their vision & mission.

Nous avons adoré notre expérience pour notre dîner de Noël d'équipe. Le personnel est chaleureux & agréable. Les nombreux choix offerts sur la table d'hôte étaient délicieux. Nous avons adoré le pudding afghan en dessert & le thé marocain servit dans une théière pour toute la tablée! Nous y retournerons c'est certain!

Toujours aussi bon. Un de mes restos préférés
Beaucoup d'épices, de goût.

Mostly mediocre. There are plenty of Mediterranean & Persian restaurants that are so much better than this. I wonder how they stay in business.

We had a delightful dinner here to celebrate my daughter's 19th birthday! We had a good sized group- 8 of us- & the staff were so welcoming. It is a beautiful restaurant, with a lovely & cozy atmosphere & the food was absolutely delicious. We ordered a number of mezzes & a few main plates & everything was fabulous! We definitely plan to return many times over!

Excellent restaurant de quartier, qui sert des mets du Moyen-Orient mais avec un brin d'originalité. Bien apprécié de toute la famille

We heard about this Mediterranean halal restaurant & my friends & I had to try it! We really enjoyed the food & the service by Mr. Shaker. He was very welcoming & took great care of us. Must try their octopus & fried haloumi. The ambiance was quite cozy with tribal decor. They have a beautiful terrace garden for summer brunch. We will be returning soon!

Beautiful setting & atmosphere. Servers were helpful. I was disappointed with their signature dish, the lamb shank'Fez', which I found tough, dry, & stringy. & expensive! Also the vegetables were a little undercooked, & there could have been more of them. What do carrots cost? Mussakaka was good. $115 for 2, without alcohol.
Georges
Solid restaurant with middle-eastern flair & a twist on some classics. The lentil soup was a favourite.
