Not only is the service exceptional, but the staff are incredibly fast and attentive. The ladies running the place somehow manage to serve a full restaurant with amazing speed and warmth.
Even when it’s packed or there are large groups, the food comes out quickly - and it’s always fresh and delicious.

This is the hidden gem of O city. Food is on top of Persian cuisine. Amazing food and friendly service. Kudos guys, your experience is so great that I -throughout the years- never took a picture 😬😋

One of the best restaurants I visited during my trip in Ottawa. First of all, I’d like to thank the waitress who was a lady, and she was very kind and helped us to choose our dishes.

The food was absolutely delicious. the Fesenjoon was very delicious, and the kebabs and rice were perfectly cooked and tasty. The service was excellent, and the restaurant had a warm, welcoming atmosphere and was very clean.
