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.

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.

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.

I had a wonderful experience at Rumi. The dishes are full of flavor, beautifully presented, & the staff was incredibly kind & attentive throughout the meal.
I highly recommend starting with the appetizers - they're absolutely delicious! The hummus & flatbread were especially fresh & flavorful.
The ambiance is warm & inviting, with a charming decor that adds to the overall experience. If you're looking for a unique & satisfying meal with Middle Eastern influences, this place is a must-visit. I'll definitely be coming back!

Delicious! In lovely ambience & a beautiful neighbourhood. We had 7 small dishes which was perfect & a great way to try a variety of food. (Also fyi lots of vegetarian choices, some vegan.)

Toujours un réel plaisir d'aller à ce restaurant mythique.Cette fois-ci j'ai essayé le saumon. Délicieux! J'ai cependant été surprise par la salade Fattouche qui semble avoir changé de recette... je préférais l'ancienne. Service rapide, courtois & ambiance unique. Déjà hâte à ma prochaine visite :)

I came here for my birthday.
The staff is very nice & friendly.
I liked the mixed countries of this food.
I am picky when it comes to middle eastern food since I am one & theirs was delicious.
They make great Lebanese Iranian food.
I loved the fez which is lamb.
My friends loved the kafta karaz & djaj meshwi.
We had many appetizers such as babaghnouj
homous batata calamari merkez with naan bread.
I jad a small pot or Moroccan tea & a glass of Iranian tea. Those are great.
I wish they had the pita bread & kibbeh with meat.
Must visit place

Came here for supper one evening & it was fantastic! The braised Lamb Shank is expensive but very worth trying; falls off the bone & melts in your mouth. Great tea, delicious everything. Wonderful meal for sharing! Will probably be coming back to try their breakfast 😋
Pierre
Toujours une excellente expérience. Les plats sont délicieux, service excellent & ce restaurant n'a pas besoin de musique a tue-tête pour créer de l'ambiance

Belle découverte! Hier soir, je visitais ce resto pour la première fois avec mon conjoint. Tous les plats commandés étaient vraiment bons & les portions généreuses & le service attentionné. J'ai échappé une carotte par terre & notre serveur nous a apporté un bol contenant plusieurs légumes pour compenser. La déco est très belle! Ambiance chaleureuse! Nous reviendrons en été. Il y a une belle terrasse qui fait le tour du restaurant. J'adore la cuisine du Moyen-Orient, tellement savoureuse! J'ai été comblée!!
