About

Restaurant Shiraz delivers an authentic exploration of Persian culinary traditions through a menu defined by aromatic spices and slow-cooked techniques. The kitchen focuses on charcoal-grilled kababs featuring tender saffron-marinated chicken and seasoned ground meats served alongside mounds of fluffy basmati rice. Diners encounter a selection of herb-heavy stews known as khoresh, which balance tart pomegranate molasses with earthy walnuts and fresh greens. The interior environment emphasizes traditional aesthetics with intricate textures and warm tones that reflect cultural heritage. Every dish relies on fundamental staples like dried limes, turmeric, and legumes to build deep layers of flavor within each recipe. This establishment provides a direct experience of regional cooking styles, showcasing the complexity of classic spice blends paired with freshly baked flatbreads served straight from the oven.

The food was to die for - we had just been walking around Old Quebec & were so hungry. The atmosphere is gorgeous as soon as you walk in, & then we were well taken care of by our server & the delicious food. We got two vegetarian meals & baklava for dessert. Highly highly recommend!

Highly recommend. Coming here from TX where we have plenty of Persian restaurants, we haven't had food this good. On top of that they are the sweetest people. Took great care of us. We came twice in our short visit & will be back again before we leave Quebec City. Every dish we tried was amazing. Don't leave without trying the ice cream.
