  • This place serves authentic Persian food that any Persian will attest to. Their prices are somewhat on the higher end in comparison to Persian restaurants in Richmond Hill, but then again, rent is more expensive on College St, so I get it. I was disappointed to find out that because this place only serves Halal meat according to Islamic tradition, they can't cook any meat that's medium rare. It can only be medium at best or well done, so as to avoid blood. Why? Because consumption of blood is prohibited in Islam. It's frustrating when religious beliefs dictate one's behaviour and restaurant policies to the detriment of customer preferences. I should point out that this interpretation from the Qur'an is misconstrued according to my research. The consumption of blood specifically on its own is forbidden, but the residue of blood on meats that are consumed is not forbidden. As long as the meat is Halal the chef should be able to serve medium rare meat upon request of a customer. I believe the management of the restaurant should revise their policy in relation to cooking meat medium rare or even rare as there is no basis in their own religious text for their insistence on cooking meat well done or medium. Suffice it to say, I moderaetly enjoyed the lamb chops I ordered, because parts of them were well done and there's nothing more unenjoyable than eating meat that's well done. It's wasn't as juicy and tender as I'm used to. Would I be back? Maybe, but I'm not sure. I prefer to go to places that can cook my meat medium rare, resulting in juicy and tender pieces.
