We had an amazing experience at this restaurant tonight! The food was absolutely delicious — every dish was full of flavor and perfectly prepared.
A special shout-out to Asieh, our server, who was incredibly kind, attentive, and professional. She truly made our night even better.
I will definitely come back again and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and excellent service!

I was excited to try Anar Persian Cuisine, but the experience was a bit below expectations. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and the staff were polite, but the food didn’t quite match the price or the hype. The portions felt smaller than expected, and some dishes lacked the rich flavour and freshness you usually get with good Persian cuisine. Service was a little slow even though it wasn’t very busy.
It wasn’t a terrible visit, but I didn’t leave fully satisfied. I hope they can improve the quality and consistency because the place has good potential.

I had visited Anar at its old location and it was absolutely fabulous. Unfortunately, my recent experience was quite disappointing. The restaurant is now located inside a place called Seaside Grill, which was already confusing.
The food itself wasn’t memorable. The bread was served frozen, portions were very small for the price, and overall the dishes didn’t justify the cost.
Service was the biggest issue. Our server was absent-minded and barely around. The only bright spot was a pleasant Persian lady who actually seemed to understand what was happening. When we were waiting for our bill, no one passed by for a long time, and when we asked another server, she snapped at us saying, “I’ll tell your server.”
The flavors were decent, but the experience felt overpriced and not worth it compared to how great Anar used to be.

Food was amazing , service was very friendly . it was a very nice touch from the lady,Her name is Tila. She offered us a complementary Iranian date and tea, and it was exceptional. Finally, we managed to find Iranian restaurants in Richmond I love the view from the restaurant even when it s running or cloudy

This place is AMAZING. I have food allergies, and the incredibly kind owner went out of her way to make me safe food so that I could eat out with my family 🥹 She even packed it separately for me :) Everything is so flavourful and healthy and so so delicious. Everyone here is really nice. The salad tastes DELICIOUS with a delicious mint and garlic dressing and the kebab is so juicy! INCREDIBLE portion sizes. Thank you so so much 💛

Is the Persian restaurant that I’ve been in Vancouver region… everything was fantastic, food , services… I highly recommend
Anar Restaurant (Lavash) has a nice location, but the food is overpriced and low quality. I tried the koobideh kabob, and it was not tasty at all — no real meat flavor, mostly onion, and oddly orange in color. For a place that charges some of the highest prices among Persian restaurants in Greater Vancouver, the food quality and taste were disappointing.
They even charge $8 for mast moosir and don’t include any bread with it. The service was poor as well. Overall, it’s not worth the price — beautiful spot, but disappointing food and experience.

Would not recommend. Overpriced and shitty service by the older grumpy lady. Place moved location to the old sockeye city restaurant. Daddy’s grill is better food and better service!

I had Ghormeh Sabzi at this restaurant, and it was one of the best I’ve had in Canada for a long time. I loved the place and would definitely go back. If you’re looking for good Persian food, I highly recommend it.

What an absolute jewel of a place! I hadn’t had Persian food that was this good in a while! We almost licked the plates, absolutely loved it and the service was great too, the server was very friendly.
As a celiac I was also happy to see most of the menu is gluten free, they even had gluten free baklava, which I hadn’t had since my diagnosis❤️
