Shiraz is my go-to every time I visit Québec. The food is consistently delicious, authentic, & full of flavor. Warm service, cozy ambiance, & generous portions - it's an absolute must for anyone who loves Persian cuisine. Always a highlight of my trip!

Based on the photo, the food looks absolutely mouthwatering. Gourmet. Five-star food, right? Congrats on falling into the trap! 😄
Let me keep it short & savage: this is culinary CATFISHING at its finest. DO NOT trust the 5-star reviews AT ALL!! I'm convinced most of them are bots or fake accounts. If you've already walked in: do yourself a favour: save your appetite, turn around, & leave while your dignity is still intact!!

I came in full of hope, trusting the high ratings & those appetizing pictures, but oh boy was I foolish. An empty restaurant at dinner time should have been red flag #1. & not a single person even acknowledged me when I walked in! Anyways hungry & tired as I was, ordered & waited a painfully long 20 minutes for the food to finally arrive.

The presentation was ok, until it touched my tongue. Good lord. The rice was piping hot, but the taste? Yikes. Yellow in colour, promising in appearance, but absolutely DEVOID of taste. Felt like it was half-cooked & reheated by microwave. The meat was slightly better, but nothing to write home about. For the price & the way the food was hyped by the owner/server, it was still far from good, & frankly, underwhelming.

& the comedy didn't stop there. A few more poor souls walked in as I was eating, & I watched them stand around for 5+ minutes in this ghost town of a restaurant, desperately trying to get someone's attention. When they finally got their food? The looks on their faces were priceless - deep, silent regret. One guy even whispered,'We shouldn't have come here.'
I felt that.
Damn. Divided by nations, united by disappointment. Honestly, I wanted to high-five them in solidarity.

So if you're considering this place because the food'looks good' in the photos: don't. It's a place where flavour goes to die, & common sense should've walked out 10 minutes earlier.

& last but not least - the owner can keep the excuses & half-hearted apologies. This is the first time a meal left me not just disappoint me, it humiliated me by making me question how I ever thought my IQ could survive this level of food deception 😃😃😃

We had an incredible dining experience at Shiraz. From the moment we walked in, we felt warmly welcomed. The atmosphere is cozy, elegant, & full of authentic Persian charm. Every dish we ordered was absolutely delicious - beautifully presented, richly flavored, & made with obvious care & love.
The kebabs were perfectly grilled, the saffron rice was fragrant & fluffy, & the stews were packed with deep, comforting flavors. The portions were generous, & the service was outstanding - attentive, friendly, & thoughtful.
If you are looking for an unforgettable meal that feels like a true cultural journey, Shiraz is a must-visit. We can't wait to return & try more from their menu!

I had a wonderful experience at Shiraz Restaurant in Quebec City . The food was absolutely delicious, fresh, flavourful, & beautifully presented. The hospitality was just as impressive; the staff were warm, welcoming, & made me feel right at home. It's rare to find such a perfect balance of great cuisine & genuine service. I highly recommend Shiraz to anyone visiting Quebec City-you won't be disappointed.
