I go to Darvish a lot since I live close by and it is absolutely wonderful. This is the first place that I and many of my friends who i've taken there have tried Persian food and every one of my friends has found it amazing. My partner and I got there regularly and the waitress / owner is wonderful and very friendly. The place is very quiet which I love because it takes you away from the bustle of yonge street. It is cozy and very clean, small place with about 8 tables of 2-4 and 1 larger booth type seat to the back.
I love their flatbread that is served as an appetizer before the meal come out! I always get the fesenjoon on the menu (chicken with walnut and pomegranate sauce) and my partner always gets the gheymeh polo ( lentils and chicken with potatoes / eggplant) Ive also had the lamb shank before which is quite filling and personally I like the fattiness of the lamb, it makes it succulent.
I once bought my sister here on her vacation to Toronto and the server gave us a free appetizer on the house, she is one of the nicest people n the restaurant industry, great place for date night =)
