Café Restaurant Nab is described as a warm, family run Persian restaurant with a truly authentic feel, where generous portions, reasonable prices, and thoughtful hospitality create a homey dining experience. Reviewers repeatedly praise the kebabs, especially koobideh and kebab torsh, the kaleh pacheh, ghormeh sabzi, and saffron rice with tahdig for their depth of flavor and careful preparation, with the rice and tahdig often highlighted as standouts. The atmosphere is consistently described as cozy and inviting, with tasteful Persian decor and occasional live traditional music, while the staff are noted for being friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The food is praised for freshness and high quality ingredients, and many say the dishes taste homemade and reflect real Persian cooking. A few comments mention occasional delays or service hiccups in busy times, but the overall impression is that Café Restaurant Nab is among the best Persian places in the city, great for family meals, groups, or romantic nights, and that many guests plan to return with friends and family to try more dishes.
The food was excellent, especially the lamb kebab which was very juicy & tasty. The rice covered with saffron. The staff were very friendly & the welcoming was very warm.
I highly recommend this restaurant.
Those who gave this restaurant high ratings have probably never been to a good restaurant or tasted good food in their lives!
The restaurant environment was extremely cramped, dark, & damp. The tables were covered with cloth, & the host was wiping his cloth directly over the table covering! Instead of using disposable sanitary table covers or having glass tables that can be properly cleaned with disinfectant!
The chairs were old & wobbly. The soup was overly thick. The doogh was sweet! The koobideh kebab was greasy & small. The rice was very low quality basmati. The mirza ghasemi was undercooked & had no distinctive aroma or flavor. & finally, the restroom was absolutely not clean at all!
Yet we paid the highest price - even compared to restaurants in Toronto!

The restaurant is tastefully decorated & there is a lot of attention to the details including the serving plates & utensils. The food was fantastic, the koobideh was one of the best I had in Canada & the mitzaghasemi had an authentic smokey flavor. We would definitely return to try more things.
Orkideh Restaurant has a very pleasant atmosphere, excellent food, & great service.
The staff are very friendly & kind, & the soft background music makes the environment even more enjoyable.
The quality & taste of the food are excellent, portions are generous, & the side dishes are great as well.
The soup & salad were enough for three people.
Thank you to the professional Orkideh team, & wishing you continued success.
