Restaurant Toucheh is a quaint little b.y.o.w. place in the 'Victoria Village' in the heart of Westmount. The kitchen is practically part of the dinning room and the atmosphere is always comfortable and cozy.
At Toucheh the warm cozy atmosphere and family run service accompany a menu that blends Persian and Italian influences. The dining experience draws praise for fresh flavorful dishes and attentive staff. Diners highlight standout items such as chencheh kebabs, pastas, lentil soup, and desserts, with brunch and BYOB noted as appealing features. The atmosphere is described as welcoming and suitable for dates or casual meals, though some critics find portions for Iranian dishes smaller than expected and a few dishes not at the same level as professional kitchen cooking, along with high prices for some items. The open kitchen and busy ambiance can be a factor, and occasional reservation hiccups have occurred but were addressed. Parking can be a hassle on certain visits. Overall the restaurant is regarded as one of the better Persian options in the area, with a charming setting and a mix of flavors that invites return visits.
We had Iranian brunch here & it was a great experience. The food was fresh, flavorful, & very authentic, exactly what you expect from a proper Persian brunch. Portions were generous & everything tasted homemade. The atmosphere was warm & welcoming, & the staff were friendly & attentive. Definitely a nice spot if you're craving Iranian food, especially for brunch. Highly recommended.

Très bon service & plat original! Le couple propriétaire sont vraiment accueillant dans une ambiance apaisante.
J'étais servi par Shaghayegh aussi très souriante & serviable!
MERCi à vous tous !
Je recommande fortement ce restaurant original!
One of the best steaks & pastas I've ever had was at this restaurant.🤌
I usually can't chew meat, but this steak was incredibly tender & melted in my mouth. The sauce on top & the garlic pasta paired with it had an amazing flavor. The soup & bread served as starters were also delicious, & their homemade tiramisu & crème brûlée-with a hint of orange-were absolutely top-notch. The portions are generous, easily enough for two people, & I really enjoyed the open, friendly atmosphere of the place.
The restaurant has a nice atmosphere & helpful staff. The food is also good & has Persian style (although with some differences in some cases). Overall, very recommended.

Cozy place with fantastic food & great service. Hearty portions served with great taste & pride. We had chicken, lamb shank, & beef at our table , all very good. The dessert impressed us as well. I would recommend the owner to work a bit maybe on the overall atmosphere as the place needs a bit of design change , in my opinion, but not a showstopper at all as the rest is really great.
A Cozy Italian Treat! I had a great time at Toucheh! This cute little place has a warm feel, perfect for a nice meal. We started with a tasty antipasto platter, then enjoyed homemade lasagna & Scallopini Piccata-both really good! The chocolate cake for dessert was amazing! The staff was friendly & attentive. I highly recommend Toucheh if you want delicious Italian food in a cozy spot! 🍝❤️
I would even give 10 stars if it were available ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👌🏻 One of the best dining experiences I have had. The food & service were super excellent. Everything was great from start to finish.The manager was so polite & kind & also staff were very friendly. I will recommend this restaurant to my friend & others who ask me where the best Persian/Italian restaurant in Montreal is ☺️
The ambiance was very relaxing & laid back. I loved the penne, as well as the Tiramisu. The staff & the owner of the restaurant were very professional & made sure everything was alright for us throughout our meal. I was originally very worried when my boyfriend & I made a reservation; upon our arrival, the atmosphere was unexpectedly loud. The staff was understanding of this, & resolved the matter professionally. I would overall recommend this place for special occasions & if you're looking for a very relaxing culinary experience.
Hands down the best lamb shank I've had in Montreal. I came here once in 2019 on a trip & came back again today & the lamb shank was consistently good. The meat just falls off the bone & pairs well with the rest of the dish. My wife got the baked eggplant dish & she was thoroughly satisfied. The atmosphere is relaxing & our waitress was friendly & attentive. Hands down this is a restaurant I'd come to every time I visit Montreal & I'd recommend it if you're looking for an upscale restaurant with diverse flavors to start or end your evening.
First time in this neighborhood restaurant & I have to say, I was very pleased with the experience. This is not a large space but with its high ceilings, natural light, open concept kitchen & the jazzy soundtrack in the background it made for a very cozy atmosphere. The menu is straightforward & simple, the food was delicious, tasty & fresh, with a Persian cuisine influence. The service was courteous & efficient. Fairly priced which becomes something rare these days. If you're in Westmount & looking for a good, not pretentious restaurant, I strongly recommend Toucheh.
We went to this restaurant for the first time after a friend recommended them to us. We were definitely not disappointed. Their food tastes amazing, the ambience is great, & the chef & staff are kind & attentive. If you want to experience Persian hospitality & a delicious Persian dish presented in a familiar style, this is the place to go!
