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 a beautiful restaurant located in the heart of Quebec City. The Persian food was delicious with huge portions. The service was lovely & the overall experience was warm & inviting. They do not serve alcohol, but you can bring your own wine & they have no corkage fee.

This is one of the best restaurants in Quebec City, offering a pleasant atmosphere, cozy space, welcoming staff, &, above all, the most delicious Iranian food - all prepared with exceptional quality. My wife & I have been regular customers since 2021, & we've always had a wonderful experience. You won't regret trying their dishes - they're truly unforgettable! Have a try! 👌

Let's start with the atmosphere that is very welcoming. The service was great, & the experience was very relaxing. I did not feel rushed to order or finish my food. Started with a tasty soup & continued with Soltani. The rice is always cooked to perfection. I should be honest, I liked the tahdig last time better but it was still good. Must try it for yourself.

Friday night, we went again to our beloved, beautiful, & warm Restaurant Shiraz with everyone in the family & our dear friend from Washington. As expected, the food, ambiance, & welcome were great. We enjoyed the warmth, politeness, & wonderful smile of our lovely hostess & marvelous entree, main course, & finished our supper with delicious Akbar mashdi ice cream full of cream & safran! which was exactly the way I remembered from my childhood in Tehran. Thanks to our kind Iranian owner & his family for their wonderful & hard work to give us a part of our Iranian culture & warmth back at our new home, Quebec City.
I really appreciate their heartwarming work, & I strongly invite & wish our small Iranian community who live in Quebec to be kind & appreciative enough to feel obligated to support their own compatriot & enjoy their food at wonderful Shiraz Restaurant.
With many thanks.
