    Lamb shank stew came highly recommended

    It's my 3rd visit and I must admit the food is delicious! We started with eggplant & yoghurt dip (Kashk e Bademjan) And naan bread, which we all really liked. I had the pomegranate & walnut stew called fesenjoon (a chicken dish made with walnuts, pomegranate paste and cinnamon) - it's a unique tasty dish. My companions had oven baked salmon, beef kababs, and lamb shank stew with bone marrow, which they devoured! The lamb was very tender and tasty. The herbed basmati mixed rice with dill and Lima beans is amazing. Great customer service too. We will come again soon! PS.- They offer many dishes that are gluten-free, dairy-free, and/or vegetarian. I myself am GF and DF and had lots of options to choose from!

    Went for their grand opening buffet special. For $10 it was great. Food was average good. The Shirazi salad was excellent.

    I was hankering for Shanghai noodles So I called Bambou:)…read more Great delivery service and food;) Fresh vegetables Great shrimp n chicken n pork with extra spicy shanghai noodles;)! Yummy Thank you Bambou;)

    TLDR: Good kabobs. The beef one was a bit gamey though. The BOGO UberEats deal was awesome, $19.99…read morefor 2 Mixed Shami Platters. Salang Kabob House has been on my list of places to try for some time now, so I was thrilled when I saw that they had a BOGO (buy one get one free) special on UberEats. It was $19.99 BOGO for a Mixed Shami Platter. So this is what I got. Each platter came with a ground chicken kabob, a ground beef kabob, rice, salad and naan. It was a lot of food and a great deal. I enjoyed the chicken shami, but I found the beef shami a bit gamey. The kabobs had a good flavour to them. The rice was soft and fluffy and nicely seasoned, but a little bit oily for my tastes. The salad was iceberg lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes and red onions. Vegetables were fresh and crisp. The salad came with a spicy red sauce, which I liked, and a creamy dressing, which I didn't use. The naan was tasty and I appreciated that it didn't have pesky sesame seeds sprinkled on it like some other places. I ordered for pickup and the food was ready in about 15-20 minutes. Pickup was quick and efficient. The restaurant has lots of seating inside. There's free parking available in front of the restaurant. The parking is shared with neighbouring businesses. (102)

    Short story: Love Persian food? Come here. Period…read more Here's the scoop. I had an interesting Friday in Ottawa. I had my car's windshield chip repaired. I then went shopping. At around 2 pm, I felt like a late lunch. I did a search and found Silk Road Kabob House nearby. Perfect! It's located in a large plaza with lots of parking. I backed into a spot and walked in. There were two diners when I had arrived. I had a nice woman welcome me and was my server during my entire stay. This place has combo specials. I had brought my appetite and ordered two of them: - Mantu (six) - Lamb combination (lamb kabob and koobideh kabob) with salad and basmati rice I got water and a Diet Coke to start. Both were cold and perfect to enjoy. I got starter naan (silk bread) with butter. The naan was so good. It was baked fresh and hot, allowing the butter to effortlessly melt on it. So good! I ate the whole thing, which I normally don't do. My mantu came out first. I got six of these steamed dumplings. They were filled with onions, and ground beef and lamb. They were drizzled with yogurt, with split peas sprinkled around each dumpling. OMG! They were fantastic. Each one was packed full of flavourful filling. The wrapper was the perfect thickness that kept the filling in, but wasn't too thick that made you chew incessantly. The yogurt and chick peas were paired so well with the dumplings. I highly recommend getting mantu here. My lamb combination came out next. There was so much food. I surprised myself by polishing off everything because the entire meal was delicious. The lamb kabob was yummy. The morsels of lamb were tender and seasoned nicely. The lamb koobideh was a ground lamb kabob that was nicely seasoned and equally as scrumptious as the lamb morsels. Excellent! The salad was fresh and crisp. I enjoyed it so much. The basmati rice was generous. It didn't have a whole lot of flavour, so I recommend mixing it up with the proteins and salad. I paid with a credit card. I tipped and all was well. Before I left, I used the washroom. It was clean. It was to the left of the counter at the back of this eatery. I let the nice woman know that the food was excellent. She was pleased. I wished her a pleasant day and left that I waddled out the door with a content tummy. I miss the food at this eatery. If you love Persian food, especially lamb and mantu, come here. You'll be so happy with the food here. (322)
