I had lunch at Shishlix and it was quite good and quite expensive.
The food was sumptuous. The rice was fragrant and fluffy. The Sultani kabob's barg and koobideh were perfectly juicy, tender and delicious. The tomato was grilled to perfection as well and went well with the rice. I did not have the chicken kabob, but it won much praise from my friend. The complimentary bread at the start was warm and tasty and went well with butter.
They did not serve vegetables and other accompaniments I have seen at Iranian restaurants. That was disappointing as their prices are high. They do have stews for less than $20, but several dishes are almost $40 each! Those prices are so high that one would consider going to Persia next to No Frills at Yonge And 16th for a little less quality at half the price instead.
However, the quality and quantity was above average and neither of us could actually finish our food.
This is an Iranian restaurant, but for some reason the menu also offered Butter Chicken (Indian) and hummus (Arabic) as well.
The waitresses were polite and the food arrived quickly and was cleared promptly as well.
The dining area is very clean, which is mandatory, and well-designed. There was a small stage and musical instruments in one corner indicating that they have music on certain days or occasions. The ambiance was not as high-end as Persian Palace, but Shishlix is an above average dining room regardless.
I would turn down the music however. It is too loud and hampers conversation.
A lot of delicious food in a nice atmosphere at a high price.
