My friend hosted a singing birthday party for about 60 people. The restaurant atmosphere was warm and friendly. The food was served buffet style with many options and all well-prepared and presented. It was delicious. They served many different types of infused teas. The chef and staff were very accommodating to the event schedule and had everything ready to serve at the appropriate times. Excellent all around!!

The food was excellent, especially the lamb kebab which was very juicy and tasty. The rice covered with saffron. The staff were very friendly and 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, and damp. The tables were covered with cloth, and 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 and wobbly. The soup was overly thick. The doogh was sweet! The koobideh kebab was greasy and small. The rice was very low quality basmati. The mirza ghasemi was undercooked and had no distinctive aroma or flavor. And finally, the restroom was absolutely not clean at all! Yet we paid the highest price — even compared to restaurants in Toronto!

Orkideh Restaurant has a very pleasant atmosphere, excellent food, and great service. The staff are very friendly and kind, and the soft background music makes the environment even more enjoyable. The quality and taste of the food are excellent, portions are generous, and the side dishes are great as well. The soup and salad were enough for three people. Thank you to the professional Orkideh team, and wishing you continued success.

My wife and I went there right after our wedding. Seeing us in wedding attire, they provided the best and most extensive service. They were super kind and supportive, offering great wishes and smiles. Specially Sharareh was of great help. Then, they did not allow us to pay! We will remember this place forever. (This was our second time there. The first time was a month before that and already deserved five stars: great service, great ambience, great music, and great food! So much so that we decided to go there after our wedding.)

Nab is a warm, family-run Persian restaurant that immediately makes you feel welcome. You can tell there’s real care behind the food here. The father of the family personally prepares the kebabs, and the whole team is incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely friendly with customers. Their hospitality feels sincere, not forced, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. The Iranian rice is outstanding and easily the highlight of the meal. Perfectly cooked, fragrant, and flavorful, with an absolutely delicious crunchy tahdig. The aroma and taste of the rice alone are reason enough to come back — it’s truly the restaurant’s biggest strength. The kebabs were good overall. The barg kebab had nice flavor but was slightly on the tough side, while the rest of the food was satisfying and well prepared. To finish, the sholeh zard was excellent — rich in flavor, beautifully balanced, and clearly homemade. Overall, Nab is a lovely spot for authentic Persian food, especially if you appreciate high-quality Iranian rice, comforting flavors, and heartfelt service. A family business that puts soul into what they serve, and it shows.
