Akbar Joojeh is a hidden gem serving authentic Persian cuisine. The menu features delicious dishes like Mirza-ghasemi, lamb shank with baghali-polo, and koobideh kabob, all made with tender meat that falls off the bone. This restaurant is known for its large portions and authentic flavors. The ambiance is beautifully designed and resembles the cozy feel of northern Iran, making it a delightful dining spot. Guests have praised the Soltani kabob as the best koobideh and barg they’ve had in Canada, while the chicken kabob is noted for being super tender and flavorful. The staff is friendly, attentive, and welcoming, which enhances the overall experience. The atmosphere is vibrant, with the comforting scent of saffron and grilled kebabs filling the air. Service is kind and attentive, making guests feel like valued visitors. Visitors should be prepared for a wait on busy days, and enjoy free street parking at certain times. The food is consistently good, with real meat in the koobideh and Joojeh. While some dishes like ghorme sabzi can be overcooked, they remain delicious. Overall, the prices are on the higher side, but many find it worth the experience. Akbar Joojeh offers a true taste of Persian tradition, with every dish telling a story full of flavor and heart.
