It's middle Eastern fusion cuisine & not Persian as it's described in their Google profile. Nevertheless, I liked my dish. It was pretty tasty.

I'm a former cook so more critical than most about food — & I thought the food was really good. Middle Eastern & Moroccan with North American touches — creative, fusion-y, light, plenty of vegetables. The mezze with butternut squash & the Haloumi Rumi were especially tasty — & I suspect my dinner companions would name other dishes. No complaints about the service. Slightly bohemian urban space that worked perfectly for me & my friends.

Unfortunately, the food & service weren't as great as used to be. The appetizers were as tasty as before but the main plates' quality & flavour were a bit disappointing. The service personnel wasn't attentive, not checking if we needed a second drink or not.
Overall, it was very different from the last experience I had back in the early 2020, but considering they survived during the pandemic, the new menu is adopted to the current condition. Will try again but not anytime soon.
