The food was excellent, definitely worth the price. The restaurant has a great seating capacity, but there needs to be more staff during each shift. Additionally, the shop was very cold and the atmosphere was cold. I think they would benefit from having platter options, as of yet the menu is still in development. Overall, the restaurant was great, the server was very kind and the food was exceptional.

After years of living in this neighbourhood, we have had the best kebab here. It is very fresh and delicious. The staff was super friendly, and the price was way more reasonable than the other restaurants around.

Best Persian Kebabs! Simply tasty and juicy kebabs melting in your mouth. Sultany kebab and pickled olives are really amazing! Friendly server.

I recently dined at Farahi Shandiz, and once again, I was thoroughly impressed. The Soltani was absolutely outstanding—definitely the highlight of the meal. The Kabab Barg was so tender that it practically melted in my mouth, and the koobide was cooked to perfection. What I appreciate most is that the dishes are neither oily nor have any unpleasant odors, which can sometimes be an issue with kabobs. The food here is truly some of the best you can find. I've visited before for chicken and rice, but I have to say the Soltani has secured its place as the standout dish in Toronto. Highly recommend!

After living in the States for a few years, we visited this restaurant and it quickly became one of my favorites among Toronto’s many great Persian spots. Both the quality and quantity of food at Farahi Shandiz were excellent. I also really enjoyed the atmosphere, convenient location, and the friendly, polite service. If you’re looking for delicious Lamb shank and Dizi this is the place to go!

Food is superb! As a Chinese I’m always eagerly search other exotic food outside of the east asia, meat food in particular coz for one, ppl would invest more time/resources to make meat more flavorful; also, meat is enjoyed by majority of us and easier to reflect local cuisine features. This is my first time to enjoy this Iranian lamb cooking, but is not a half bad! Pork is as tender as chicken in the sense you can swiftly pull them down and wolf down without any effort, barely requiring chewing and simply letting tongue to twist among the heavy gravy. Highly recommend to our Chinese fellows

The experience was truly exceptional. The food was absolutely delicious, with each dish showcasing the chef's culinary expertise and attention to detail. But what truly set this dining experience apart was the exceptional service we received. The server who attended to our table was incredibly kind, attentive, and helpful throughout our meal. Her warm and friendly demeanor, coupled with her willingness to answer questions and make recommendations, created an ambiance that elevated the overall experience. Thank you 😊
