If you're looking for a fast food restaurant that goes above and beyond, look no further! We celebrated New Year's Eve here, and the experience was fantastic. The staff did everything possible to ensure my friends and I had a memorable night, from special menu items to festive decorations. Their commitment to customer happiness is evident, and they even offer catering services for any event. Highly recommend this place for great food and exceptional service!

A Truly Unforgettable Experience at Lili Kitchen! From start to finish, everything about our evening at Lili Kitchen was absolutely perfect. The food was beyond amazing—every bite was packed with flavor and crafted with care. The live music added so much energy and joy to the atmosphere, making it the perfect backdrop for an incredible night. Lili and Mo were the ultimate hosts—so warm, friendly, and welcoming. Their hospitality made us feel like family, and their attention to detail was unmatched. The highlight of the night was the Kurdish dancing, which brought everyone together in celebration and created memories we’ll cherish forever. We celebrated New Year’s Eve here, and it was truly magical—a night full of great food, fantastic music, and wonderful people. I can’t recommend Lili Kitchen enough for anyone looking for an unforgettable dining and entertainment experience. Thank you, Lili and Mo, for an extraordinary night!

We loved this place, and Mr Mohammad was a great host and cook. Everything: Kabab, bread, and rice were made entirely fresh. The koobideh was greaaaaaat and way better than any other we have ever tried in GTA. The Doogh was absolutely amazing. The Joojeh Kabab was very tender and tasty. The bread was just excellent, so fresh and crunchy. We got a great service and good in our first visit, and we will definitely come back, again.

I had an amazing experience at Lili Restaurant! The Persian food, especially their Kubideh Kebab, is absolutely delicious. The meat was perfectly seasoned, tender, and juicy with grilled tomatoes. The warm and welcoming ambiance, combined with friendly service, made the dining experience even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for authentic Persian cuisine with rich flavors and generous portions, Lili Restaurant is the place to go. Highly recommend!

I recently visited Lily Kitchen at 287 Dundas St. W. after my Schengen visa interview at the Italian Consulate in Toronto, and I was absolutely blown away by the food. I started with the Wasiri (chicken and beef skewer), while my wife chose the chicken and rice. The flavors were simply outstanding, with each bite of meat, rice, and salad bursting with authentic Middle Eastern and Afghan taste. We were so impressed that we ended up ordering extra rice and two more Skewer Kobedeh. Even after finishing those, we were tempted to keep going because it was unbelievably delicious. This place is a must-try for anyone who loves flavorful, well-prepared cuisine. Honestly, I don’t understand why Lily Kitchen has so few Google reviews, especially given its prime location in downtown Toronto. It’s a hidden gem that deserves more recognition, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great dining experience in the city.

Not only the worst Persian food, but worst food I’ve had in the city. First off, the restaurant was ugly and hot, probably because they’re trying to save money on the air conditioning. The Veal (Barg) was hideous. Cheap serving, meat tasted old and low quality. The rice was terrible, wasn’t Persian style at all, more like a crappy boiled rice that went cold then reheated in a microwave, and get this $37.67! I didn’t think anything could be as bad as Darvish Persian restaurant on Yonge, but I was wrong. Whoever made that garbage food shouldn’t be allowed to boil water, let alone be near a stove. I was bitching to my wife how disgusting the food was all the way home. I’ll never get Persian food in Toronto again, ever… ever.. Anyone who left a 5 star review must a family member or a made up account.

Lili kitchen offers a great dining experience with its flavourful Beef Minced Kebab and Chicken Kebab. Both dishes are expertly seasoned and cooked to perfection, delivering a delicious taste that stands out. If you find yourself downtown, Lili Kitchen is definitely worth a visit for a satisfying and tasty meal. Highly recommended!

Amazing restaurant with great service! The restaurant owner was very kind and offered us a delicious appetizer for free. I had the pleasure of ordering a beef wrap, which-with a perfect blend of juicy beef, fresh vegetables and soft bread-tasted delicious, along with a side of crispy fries and a drink. My sister ordered a burger, which was homemade and absolutely delectable. Menu has many tasty options for those both looking for something new but also wanting something more familiar.
