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.

My family & I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant today. It felt like a mini trip to Iran itself. The blend of traditional & modern decoration, adorned with Iranian handicrafts, beautifully captured the essence of Iran & its rich artistic heritage. The background music added to the pleasant ambiance. I tried the "Abgoosht" dish, a delightful journey back in time with its traditional presentation, & it was absolutely delicious. The staff was not only respectful but also genuinely warm. Special thanks for providing crayons & paper to my 5-year-old daughter, who happily spent time drawing. The journey to Iran wrapped up with a delightful dessert - Baqlava paired with Persian tea, making it the perfect sweet ending to our experience! Highly recommend this place for a taste of Iran & a welcoming atmosphere!

J'ai adoré ma soirée! Le personnel est si gentil & accueillant, la propriétaire a pris le temps de nous expliquer la composition de nos assiettes & les bases de la cuisine iranienne. C'était une agréable soirée, je recommande si vous voulez essayer un nouveau restaurant! C'est mon ami iranien qui m'a fait découvrir ce restaurant & c'est vraiment la place pour manger des plats typiques iraniens à Québec.

I had an early dinner at this wonderful restaurant & was not disappointed. I got a soup & a kebab platter to share. The kebab + chicken was juicy & full of flavour. The complementary salad was fresh & delicious. The soup was very well done. I cannot wait to come again! Highly recommend to all kebab lovers. 🤗
