The kebabs and chicken breast were oddly soft and completely tasteless, to the point we joked we might have caught COVID since none of us could taste the food. The portion size was small for the price, especially compared to other Iranian restaurants in Toronto. We came here because of the high ratings, but the flavor left us really disappointed.

As an Iranian, I can say the food here is delicious and it’s the only authentic Persian food I’ve had in Barrie. I’ve tried pretty much everything on the menu and order here regularly. Definitely recommend trying out the food here, the staff are super nice too!

We ordered chicken kebab and koobideh , fesenjoon and jooje torsh
Everything was so yummy, specially koobideh kebab, it was better than anywhere else in Toronto which we tried before.
Owner was so welcoming, we had a nice conversation about our hometowns with him , he brought us extra tahdig ?
