The food was incredibly delicious and the service was amazing! The food I recommend to eat is the lamb shank because it was so juicy in flavour and was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant for families!

The atmosphere was perfect, the slow music just was so relaxing, and the Persian decor vibes were out the charts. The manger (pouya)was so welcoming and kind, and seriously the food stole the show, the lamb shank and gheymeh was so rich in flavour and so fresh. I recommend this place to anyone that wants to taste one of the best lamb shanks, stews, and kebabs in all of Toronto.

I had a truly wonderful experience at Darvish Restaurant. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance felt warm and authentically Persian. The traditional decor, soft music, and welcoming energy made us feel right at home. We ordered the Vaziri kebab, and it was cooked perfectly. The meat was tender and flavorful, and the saffron rice was light and aromatic. The service was friendly and attentive throughout our visit. It’s a great spot in the heart of downtown Toronto for anyone looking to enjoy quality Persian food in a cozy setting. I’ll definitely be going back.

Part art gallery, part museum, all fine dining - Darvish Persian Cuisine presents a stunning array for the senses. The art of food is an engagement of all of one's faculties: sight, sound, smell, touch (texture) and, of course, taste - and Darvish Persian Cuisine was art indeed.
The interior was lavishly decorated with calligraphy, poetry, portraiture, miniature, numismatics, and instruments of the musician's craft.
Seated beneath the "Rumi Table" plaque, I chose the Mirza Ghasemi - grilled eggplant purée with garlic and tomato, served with Persian bread - as an opening salute to the evening meal. Displaying good balance, the elements of the Mirza Ghasemi whirled about in a harmonious blend, with neither of the ingredients outweighing or prevailing over the other.
For the main course, I went with a familiar favourite - the Lamb Chenjeh kebab. As described by the menu, this was a selection of lamb pieces marinated in Persian spices served with rice and grilled tomato. Meaty and tender, with all-you-can-add sumac spice on the rice, this made for a very satisfying meal.
Of particular interest was an eloquent, calligraphic inscription on a cloth near the back of the restaurant, declaring : "Nothing is more joyful than the sound of love" - composed by one of the princes of Persian poetry: Hafez. (photo included below).
Artistry, in all its forms, awaits you at Darvish Persian Cuisine.
The food was so bad. Portion (takeaway) is really small as well. Not worth it

We ordered dolme and kabob, dolme was great 😋kabobs and rice taste good , the young lady was working there was so kind and lovely, nice place with great Persian decorations make you feel home 😍
I got two orders of Koobideh Kabobs with rice, tahdig(bogo) pickles and onions, kashk o bademjoon.
The koobideh meal was great, the meat was juicy and the rice was nice and fluffy. The order of pickled and onions came with sliced pickles and onions which is great to eat with the koobideh and rice.
The kashk o bademjoon was also good. Only downside is it came with only 4 small squares of bread, maybe 2 more would’ve been better.
The tadig was unfortunately a disappointment but that might be due to it being takeout. The rice was not crispy and was a bit hard to chew, most likely cause it’s in a Togo container and being steamed and losing all its crispness. I would probably not offer that as a menu item for take out if that’s the case.
Overall a good place, 4/5 stars.

The food is mediocre at best. I'd rather pay more and get better quality food. The food quality gets progressively worse. I have dined in and had take-out. Both very disappointing.
