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.

Shiraz is the place If you're craving authentic Persian cuisine in Old Quebec, From the moment you step in, you're welcomed by a warm, cozy ambiance that blends traditional Persian decor with modern comfort.
The food is absolutely outstanding I highly recommend the Koobideh kebab, which was juicy & perfectly grilled, & the Kashke Bademjan, a rich eggplant dip that bursts with flavor. Every dish is beautifully presented & made with care. The traditional Persian ice cream is a must-try for dessert!
What truly sets Shiraz apart is the exceptional service. The staff are incredibly friendly & attentive, making you feel like a guest in their home.
Whether you're visiting Quebec or a local looking for a new favorite spot, Shiraz is a place you'll want to return to again & again. Highly recommended for families, couples, & anyone who appreciates great food & heartfelt service

This is one of the best restaurants I've tried in Canada! The kebab koobideh was absolutely delicious, & they even had doogh & mast-o-mosir, which made everything perfect. Highly recommended!

Une expérience inoubliable à Québec ! Ce restaurant iranien offre une cuisine authentique & raffinée. Le kebab était tendre & savoureux, le riz basmati parfaitement parfumé, & les entrées persanes comme le mirza ghasemi & le mast-o-khiar étaient excellentes.

Le service est chaleureux & attentionné, on se sent accueilli comme en famille. L'ambiance conviviale & la décoration aux touches persanes rendent le repas encore plus agréable.

Un vrai bijou culinaire à Québec - je le recommande sans hésitation à tous ceux qui veulent découvrir ou redécouvrir la richesse de la cuisine iranienne.

Beau restaurant avec terrasse sur Grande Allée. Le souper était délicieux & les portions sont très grandes, j'ai eu de la difficulté à finir mon assiette. La seule chose que je dirais à améliorer, c'est que les serveuses passent plus souvent sur la terrasse pour vérifier si tout est correct. Je vous recommande d'essayer cette place.
