Definitely recommend the place. The Persian fog tea and the saffron cake were mind blowing. The grilled vegetable sandwich, broad bean koukou and the lentil soup were also good. Very vegetarian friendly place. The line for ordering was really long and had to wait over 20min to just order food. However the food itself was super quick. Beautiful cafe and the decor was really pretty
My first visit at this café was excellent. The interior decor is very colorful and intricate. It is very welcoming and intimate feeling. Once I order my food, it was brought out promptly and it was delicious. Will definitely be coming back here whenever I'm in Montréal.
Everything is so iconic in this cafe. The flavours, the atmosphere, the service. The staffs were so nice and respectful. And every Persian item in the menu that we ordered, was literally its best version. I definitely recommend this place and we’ll be back in the future.
cute little cafe and the food is delicious! Everything is so fresh and tasty! This is my favourite go-to place but this time I ordered online and it is still an excellent experience. I should also talk about their unique and different packaging. Recommend it!
The food is good. I love the pudding because its cool and soft rice flavor gives me appetite. Besides,the egg and bread are flavorful . However, I have to remove one star because the meal experience is quite poor. The place is congested around the noon and you need to wait inside for a while.
One of my favourite places in Montréal! The atmosphere is so cozy and comforting. It feels as if you were at your aunt's house and about to be served a nice cup of tea and some fresh homemade cake.
The service can be quite slow but everything tastes fresh and delicious so the wait is worth it. Just don't go there if you are in a rush; this place is meant to be enjoyed leisurely.
I recommend the Persian Fog (hot black tea with milk, saffron syrup and pistachio) and the saffron rose cake for a chef's kiss treat! If you are looking for breakfast or lunch their avocado sandwich is also good and the portion is decent.

It is estimated that many friends have been to this shop, only 50 meters away from the art museum. Perfect for friends to meet and talk. Even one person can certainly go! Different from the overall North America and northern Europe simple style here, the interior decoration is strong Middle Eastern flavor, but people feel very comfortable, feel like I went to the Middle East friends home furnishings. Especially winter gives you warm feeling.
👌 Although it says coffee shop, their tea is relatively good (personal opinion) Persian fog and ginger tea are both good and they also have saffron tea. It also has Iranian sandwiches and some specialty desserts. And their service staff is very warm.
🫣 warm reminder:restaurant estimates will be a lot of people over the weekend, so enjoy the quiet friends is expected to be wrong peak travel. And if it's convenient, you can put the dinnerware on the counter in their work room.

A very beautiful and a very authentic cafe.
Very cute for a first date and a casual meet and greet. Not at all expensive.
The food and the drinks are to die for.
The persian Tea's are very awesome and traditional. Will definitely come back the next time I am in town.
