I had an amazing experience at Cafe Tehran. The lamb chops were perfectly grilled, tender, and full of flavor. You can immediately taste the quality of the meat and the care put into the seasoning. The saffron basmati rice was aromatic, fluffy, and cooked just right. Exactly how Persian rice should be. The plate was generous and beautifully balanced with fresh salad and grilled tomato, which completed the meal perfectly. Every bite felt authentic and comforting, like real home style Persian cuisine done at a professional level. If you’re looking for high quality Persian food with rich flavors, excellent portions, and consistent taste, Cafe Tehran is a place you won’t regret. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending it to others.

We had a corporate group semi private event here for a client and the staff and management was more than helpful. They went over and beyond for our group. They even made a full size Saffron cake for the party. We would recommend to corporate parties. They were also able to accommodate all of our dietary requirements.

I’ve tried most of the dishes at Café Tehran, and honestly, everything has been excellent. The food quality and flavors truly reflect authentic Iranian home-style cooking, and you can tell everything is made with care and love. I’m genuinely happy that we have Café Tehran here in Ottawa, where we can enjoy and reconnect with real Iranian cuisine. Highly recommended for anyone looking for delicious, authentic Persian food.
Came here for lunch on a Saturday. Ordered Fesenjan stew as the main dish and Kashk Bademjoon as an appetizer. The stew comes with rice, salad and the appetizer comes with bread. The portion sizes were good, the food was more than enough for two people. It was really yummy. I highly recommend both the dishes. The service was good as well. They also had nice persian music playing at a low sound, which added to the ambience. There is paid street parking, but it's free on the weekends. I'll be back!

Just ordered from uber eats, unfortunately I couldn’t select the buy one get one free option in the app and had to call them just to confirm. Their customer service lady responded with care and somehow we were able to manage the order to be delivered as buy one get one free. Thank you so much to their chef as well. Food is delicious like always, I had their Kashke bademjun and Loobia polo! Super tasty 👌
Thanks again to their team and persian hospitality ☀️👏

FOOD: Koobideh kebab ($23) was fantastic - very tender and flavorful, and came with vegetables and some tahdig (crisp rice mixed with some saffron). Had the vaziri ($29.99) as well previously - while I was not as big of a fan as the chicken/almond/pomegranate skewer that it came with (compared to koobideh), that is more a matter of personal preference. One main is enough to fill a person (and perhaps some leftovers), and the food is all very reasonably priced.
SERVICE: Very friendly - and I have been three different times
ATMOSPHERE: The menus, wall decor, and tableware are all well-designed. Great casual eatery
I strongly recommend people visit and try this place, which I would consider a hidden gem.
