This culinary tradition dates back centuries and guests will feel transported by the menu which can be enjoyed either inside our exotic interior or al fresco on the courtyard patio.

Good Persian food in a busy atmosphere. The interior and decor is a bit run down and can use some new paint and cleaning. The restaurant was extremely busy on a Saturday night, with several events taking place, so reservations are a must. The portions were smaller than at other Persian restaurants in Toronto and especially Richmond hill where you can find many persian eateries. Their prices were on the higher side compare to the portion size. One thing that surprised me the most was that none of the staff we interacted with, including when making the reservation, spoke Persian! Overall, we enjoyed the food and had a decent experience.
