“I wish the owner open one branch in Eastside Vancouver, nothing in Vancouver under $14 in any Chinese restaurants , $14 for koobideh big portion very reasonable price food is good , come on owner open a branch in Vancouver you will be doing very good here , Persian food so tasty“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Nice restaurant with a great variety of traditional Persian dishes.
They offer most of the classic Persian foods on their menu, which is impressive. However, the taste wasn’t quite as rich or flavorful as I expected from authentic Persian cuisine. I’d suggest they focus a bit more on improving the taste quality to match their wide variety of options. Overall, still a good place to try!“

“Revisiting after three years and once more, I had an amazing experience at Ali Baba Capilano Café. Their food brought me back to my childhood, especially the Jigar, which was cooked perfectly and full of flavour. And the sirabi… honestly, that’s something I’ll never forget. It’s rare to find that authentic taste here, but they do it exactly right. What really makes this place truly special is the atmosphere. It feels like stepping into Tehran in the 1350s, or walking into an old traditional village store. Thanks to the team for keeping this beautiful tradition and flavour alive. I’ll definitely be back.“

$16.79 tax incl. “Kotlet” (Persian loanword for chicken “cutlet”)

~ Decent food. Bottles of condiments on the every table to spice up your meal as you wish.
Very pretty place. Lots of images & objects displayed on the walls depicting Iranian culture, history, famous people etc.

Also their payment system lets you access a record of your purchase online, which is kinda cool“

“Akbar Joojeh Restaurant ✨🍋

Dining at Akbar Joojeh Restaurant is like taking a delicious journey into the heart of Persian cuisine where every dish is prepared with care, tradition, and a touch of elegance.
I had the Akbar Joojeh, their signature marinated chicken, and it was truly outstanding tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. The golden saffron rice that accompanied it added a subtle floral aroma, making each bite beautifully balanced and full of warmth.
The lamb with baghali polo was equally impressive the meat was so soft it nearly melted in the mouth, complemented by the fragrant dill and fava bean rice that brought freshness and depth to the plate. It’s a dish that speaks of patience, passion, and authentic Persian craftsmanship.The atmosphere at Akbar Joojeh is welcoming and vibrant, with the comforting scent of saffron and grilled kebabs filling the air. Service is kind and attentive, making you feel like a valued guest rather than just a customer.
If you love refined comfort food and crave a true taste of Persian tradition, Akbar Joojeh is a place you’ll want to return to again and again. Every dish tells a story rich, flavorful, and full of heart. 💛🍽️“

“found this little gem looking for another business in Lynn Valley. what wonderful treats! seriously if you are in the area you need to go to this place, so delicious“

“Great kebabs, good atmosphere!“

“We went there for dinner with a group of friends. It was my second time visiting. I ordered the Joojeh Kebab (Thai chicken) and kebab loghme which was good quality and served in a generous portion. However, one of the waiters was not polite —especially considering it was only 8:30 p.m. They seemed tired and a bit rude. Overall, I liked the food, but the restaurant needs a strong manager to better train the staff.“

“If you’re looking for authentic Iranian groceries, this supermarket is a great choice. It’s fully stocked with a wide variety of Iranian brands, ingredients for kebabs, and traditional cooking utensils. Prices are slightly higher than other Iranian markets, but the quality and selection make up for it. Don’t miss the Sangak bakery at the back—the bread is fresh and consistently excellent.“

“Amazing food and friendly staff. Thank you for the delicious meals! Always satisfied!“

“Went to Haida Sandwich in North Van to try out their Haida hot, Haida Special and Turkey breast sandwich. All of them were delicious especially the cold cut sandwiches. Way bigger than Subway and comes with mini fries. This place is always busy, restaurant is clean. The only thing I didn't like is the airport style receipt checks they do on you. 😂“
