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.

We recently had the pleasure of dining at Shiraz Restaurant in Quebec City, & it was a truly delightful experience. From the moment we walked in, the warm & inviting atmosphere set the tone for an authentic Persian dining experience.

The food was exceptional - fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. We tried several dishes, including the joojeh kebab, ghormeh sabzi, & zereshk polo, & each one was delicious & true to its traditional roots. The rice was perfectly cooked & fragrant, & the meat was tender & juicy with just the right seasoning.

The service was also excellent. The staff were friendly, attentive, & happy to explain the menu & make recommendations. It really felt like they cared about making our experience special.

If you're looking for a unique cultural dining experience in Quebec City with great food & warm hospitality, Shiraz Restaurant is definitely worth a visit. Highly recommended!

Dining at Shiraz restaurant was a truly unforgettable experience. From the warm, welcoming atmosphere to the impeccable service, every detail was thoughtfully executed. The dishes were rich in authentic flavor-perfectly seasoned kebabs, fragrant saffron rice, & melt-in-your-mouth stews that tasted just like home-cooked meals from Iran.

The quality of ingredients & care in preparation were evident in every bite. The freshly baked bread & traditional appetizers like mast-o-khiar & kashk-e-bademjan were simply outstanding. To top it all off, the Persian tea & desserts like baklava & saffron ice cream were the perfect ending to a perfect meal.

If you're looking for genuine Persian hospitality & a culinary journey through Iran, this restaurant is a must-visit. Highly recommended!
