This Kebab place in downtown Richmond Hill has opened in the last two and a half months, so I was really excited to go in and support a new small business in the area. I'm SO glad I did -- Golpayegani has one of the best kebabs I've ever had in the GTA. Delectable and fresh (hot off the skewer), their kebab koobideh was excellent both in texture and taste. The rice and tahdig (crispy bread) that went along with our dish was also fresh and delicious -- with the added butter, it all tasted dangerously good!
We were able to make use of their 2 for 1 opening deal, so that our two plates of kebab koobideh (each with 2 skewers of kebab and rice) came to $22. I thought it was a great deal! They only have this promotion until the end of November, so I would recommend taking advantage of it sooner rather than later.
The seating inside the restaurant is relatively limited. They have only 3 tables, each with two rows of benches that can seat approximately 2 people on each bench (altogether maximum of 4 to a table). If you're going in a big group, this restaurant might not be the best dine-in option. But I honestly could not rave more about how delicious this kebab was. Maybe I was just really hungry, but I enjoyed the meal so much that we ended up getting another 2 for 1 kebab koobideh special to have for lunch tomorrow -- that's how tasty it was!
I'm hoping that Golpayegani will last longer than the Sabzineh that used to be in its place which unfortunately closed down after only a year or two of being open. read more
