I had an excellent brunch here. I'm no expert on Persian food so I can't comment on the authenticity, but it was all absolutely delicious and the flavors are so unique to someone used to standard North American food. The two dishes had excellent variety - so many different items on each plate. Despite what some other reviewers said here, the service was excellent and the staff were very friendly. It took about 15 minutes to be seated, but it was a rainy day so I can only imagine it would be busier on a nice day. Will definitely come back next time I'm in town!
We went there on 8 May 2022. The food was OK but the service was absolutely poor. First, the server didn't give the service that we required (we ask for extra bread and she didn’t take care of that. Then, we asked another server to bring bread to our table). Secondly, we asked to pay the bills separately. The server told that their machine is old and is not able to generate bills on an individual basis. Furthermore, on top of the after-tax money, an additional 18 percent tip was added to the bill that nobody explained to us. Finally, two things were added to our bill that we had not requested (37 dollars). It is absolutely terrible service. That was the first time that I tried this place, but definitely not gonna try again.
NOT RECOMMENDED.- The restaurant, workers' clothes, and even their hands are not clean- Food is served with too much delay- The food quality neither is the best, nor the worst, I can say their food can be scored 40 out of 100- Apart from the Asian girl working there, the rest are not trained and experienced- Prices are too much and the food and service don't worth itNOTE TO THE OWNER: TRAIN YOUR WAITER
Craving for a Persian brunch ? Search no more. Tried Zaban & Bandari and both of them are A+. They also bring you various sides on your dish. We also got a refill for the Chai which is a plus.
The food is good specially DIZI and Zeyton Parvardeh. However, the waiter was Absolutely RUUDEE. He was rushing everything and offensive.He didn't let me to order properly and removed the menu from my hand before completing my order. Also he just put the bill on my table without even looking at me before asking I'd I need anything else. Ethics was ZERO. I don't recommend here.
This is our first choice for the brunch whenever we travel to Toronto. This restaurant serves high-quality, authentic Persian brunch dishes. We've tried all their dishes, and I can say all of them are amazing. The staff and owner are super friendly. The restaurant works per First Come First Serve basis, so on the weekends, you should expect to wait for a while while seated.
The food is quite delicious but the staff are unprofessional.
Their portions were filling although the takeout option was only decent. I really enjoyed the lamb stew, while the porridge wasn't too flavorful. We also asked for cutlery but didn't receive it with our order.
Came here back in the summer and everything was delicious - the dizi is my personal favourite.
We were regulars and moved from Toronto to London this year, and have driven 2 hours to eat here, it's that good. Great food, great tea, great people.
