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.

Restaurant Shiraz is widely regarded as a premier destination in Quebec City for authentic Persian cuisine, frequently praised for its flavorful kebabs, fresh ingredients, and generous portion sizes. Many diners highlight the warm, inviting atmosphere and the professional, friendly hospitality provided by the staff, which contributes to a memorable dining experience.

Positive experience! I'm a big lover of Parisian food as it's always fresh, delicious & made of good quality ingredients. This place wasn't disappointing : very friendly staff, were extremely careful about my daughter allergies. We were served with an Iranian hospitality. all 5 members of our family enjoyed the atmosphere & the dinner. Will definitely recommend the place to all my friends.

My family & I came here after a long day touring some parks. The owner was very welcoming, & directed us to a table. Our waitress was also very kind. Come the food & it was exquisite. The food's presentation was really beautiful, deceptively neat - having so much more than it looks - & the flavors were rich. The atmosphere was really nice, & even though I forgot my glasses in my car, I could definitely see why the place is recommended by lots of people. One can go on & on, but I can certainly say that if I'm coming back to Quebec city I'm gonna eat here again.

Un superbe restaurant iranien. Look & ambiance cosy, service parfait, plats copieux & goûteux, aux saveurs agréables. Le repas, entrée, plat, thé & café pour 50 dollars, soit environ 35 euros. Je recommande. Si vous voulez boire de l'alcool, amenez votre bouteille.

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.

Our experience at Shiraz was amazing. Starting from the warm welcome to the last bite of the very delicious food. The waitress was very friendly & always smiling. The prices are reasonable. I really really recommend this restaurant, & for me whenever I am in Quebec, Shiraz it is.
