What Winnipeggers Say

"Friends in the evening of the Nowrooze — we all as a family enjoyed polo sabzi and fish. Friends, believe me, the fish was excellent and the service very friendly and enjoyable. Quality and quantity of food that you should try yourself. Thanks to Maryam khanom and Asha, Mehdi also the youth with their hospitality."

"This tucked-away gem is well worth seeking out. The Tehran Cafe's food is absolutely delicious. I've eaten there three times now, and each dish I've tried is really good. Well-cooked, delicately spiced dishes that remind you of home cooking. The portions are generous and the service is friendly. It's a crave-able place."
