Review Summary

Reviews indicate Shali Restaurant serves authentic Persian cuisine with tender kebabs grilled over charcoal, including koobideh and joojeh, and meat dishes paired with fragrant saffron rice and fresh salads. Portions are generous and prices are reasonable, with a bring your own wine option that adds value. The atmosphere is warm and family friendly, and the staff are described as cordial, attentive, and welcoming, though service can be slower when the place is busy. Reservations are advised for weekend evenings due to high popularity. Desserts and starters receive praise such as barley soup, saffron ice cream, and baklava, and the overall dining experience is described as flavorful and comforting. A few reviews note occasional lapses in service or cleanliness, but the consensus is that Shali stands out as one of the best Persian restaurants in Montreal, especially for kebabs and the overall quality of food.

I landed in Montreal for work around 8pm & was searching for delicious & healthy options near the airport & found this gem! The kebab plates (both chicken & beef) are next level delicious & the best Persian food I've had to date. I ended up coming a second time on my way back to the airport & the tangy chicken kebab plate with rice & salad was amazing. Will be coming back on my next trip to Montreal!

An amazing authentic & wonderful Persian restaurant on des Sources blvd ❤?❤? We made reservations for my mother's birthday & upon entering the venue saw many families & friends enjoying the food of the restaurant 😇😇 The staff was super welcoming & answered all our questions about the food ! We started with complimentary Barley soup which was incredibly tasty ❤?❤? For the main dishes we opted for the BBQ Flame-Cooked Meats as my mom had the Tender Barbecue Chicken Thighs while I had the Tangy Chicken kebab (breast) & each meal came with saffron rice & salad with the BBQ Tomato. Each bite was a gourmet's delight & super delicious & our full compliments to the chef 🙏🙏 For dessert we shared a Baklava & it was just as amazing ❤?❤? Cannot wait to come back with the entire family & friends to this 10/10 venue & try other items in its excellent menu 😇😇 MORE UPDATES: Went with my friends & had wonderful lentil soup followed by very tasty & delicious chicken dishes ❤?❤? For dessert we all had the saffron ice cream & it was heaven on earth 😇😇

Visiting friends from out of province, & so very sorry we won't be able to come back until summer .
From the moment we walked in, the wonderful aroma welcomed us!
The service was so welcoming & friendly., the food was delicious !
They first served us a delicious barley soup. We then lovingly enjoyed The Warm eggplant Dish, followed by the main courses of Traditional Persian stews, & chicken breast with saffron rice & salad.
Looking forward to our next visit to Montreal so we can come back & enjoy more selections from this restaurant

The kebab was tasty & juicy. I just wish the chicken kebab had been saffron-flavored, but overall the quality of the kebabs was good, & I would recommend this restaurant
