Reviews for Pomegranate Restaurant in Toronto, ON
Awesome place. I'm not an expert but I really liked the food. I loved the stews. The atmosphere is very cute. Lots of... traditional artwork on the walls and a cute water fountain at the entry. Washrooms are at the back before the kitchen. Servicewas very friendly and attentive. It felt like I was at a family home for dinner. Would definitely come back. Read more
The first time I tried Persian food and was amazed by the food here. Beef with chickpeas were very impressive. The starter made... of olives, pomegranate, and walnuts(or one kind of nuts) was veryyyy surprising and delicious. The lamb shank was fine but therice was tasty! So overall good food and will definitely come back again! Read more
One of those amazing hidden gems you find in Toronto. This is authentic Persian rice styled food (not BBQ/grilled kebab type).... It?s a small setting with limited seatings but extremely cosy with a very classy Persian ambience (reminded me ofTurkish/Moroccan vibes). The service was great with fast delivery time of the food after ordering. We had the Shirin Polo withthe lamb and the Adas Polo with the lamb. Both were amazing with remarkable scents of the food too. The orange in Shirin and thedates in Adas made the taste very unique. Moreover, the lamb was super soft and really tasty. I also must compliment that withthe outrageous dining prices around Toronto now, Pomegranate is one of the best few places where you can get an extremely tastymeal with tea under $30. Bravo! Will come again. Read more
Last year we traveled from the states to Canada for the first time and had a fabulous time. Saw great reviews of this restaurant... and decided to give it a try but because of Covid it was closed. Fast forward to today and we finally got the chance to try itand let me tell you no disappointments here. We had the Pom salad , Gheymeh and fesenjune dishes. They were all delicious andtasted great. So far best Iranian food in Toronto Read more
We had a great experience at this restaurant; friendly staff, beautiful decoration, great taste of traditional persian food and... reasonable price. Will return for sure :) Read more
This was actually my first time trying persian food, so this feedback is solely based on this restaurant with no reference to... another one. Most of the dishes have a combination of meat and dried fruits/ nuts. Fesenjaan was so good! The sauce was thickand tasty. Aloo Ghesyi was a completely new flavour to for me (chicken+ apricot) and I really liked it. At the end we orderedSafran ice-cream. The presentation was just on point! And the restaurant layout eas amazing, we couldn't take our eyes off thecarpets and pictures on the wall! Will go back again for sure. Read more
Not a good experience ... I had high hope before I had my dinner at this Persian restaurant. The dishes display are totally... different than what you can find from the internet images, size are fairly small, all main dishes are presented in the same waywith rice and salad on the side. Price not cheap, but the quality and portion they are offering shouldn't be that high pricecompare to others. Taste was so so, not exceptional, not as bad, but definitely not worth to pay $20/dish. I was disappointed. Atmosphere was OK. Read more
Great Persian/ Iranian food. This is a small restaurant with authentic Iranian food and beautiful interiors. The restaurant has... a small menu and the person serving can give some good recommendations. We ordered a couple of appetizers (an olive andpomograte appetizer in a reduction which was great, a yogurt based appetizer and an eggplant with fried onions appetizer) andthey all were good. For the mains we ordered a lamb Shank with berry rice and a chicken in spinach curry (with rice, yogurt andsalad). We also ordered a Persian icecream - it was an icecream/ kulfi base with rosewater and dry fruits. For me, it was toosweet but everyone else in my group really liked it. Read more
