    We had the Vaziri Kabab with lamb koobideh at Avishan Persian Restaurant, and it was absolutely…read moredelicious. The meat was perfectly seasoned, tender, and full of authentic flavor. Everything tasted fresh and was cooked just right. The best compliment came from someone in our party who is known for being the toughest food critic in our family--and even they were genuinely impressed with the quality and taste of the food. If you're looking for authentic Persian cuisine, I highly recommend Avishan Persian Restaurant. We'll definitely be back!

    This place had good reviews so we decided to try it…read more Located in a cozy street of small and boutique shops. Parking is easy street parking. We come for lunch around 2pm on a Saturday and it was not full. They do have Middleastern music in the background but a nice hearing level which doesn't interrupt conversation. Simple restaurant but minimalist tastefully decorated. As soon as we came in we were greeted, walked to our table and Tea and Water was brought to our table. This restaurant is from Iran so they had typical dishes from that country. A lot of them have a base of yogurt, so it is not Vegan friendly, except for salads and the Veggie Kabob. We ordered a Chicken Kabob and Slamon Kabob. Both dishes came with rice and a small salad. Everything was very tasty and portions were reasonable. Chicken was so soft you didn't need a knife to cut it. Salmon melted in your mouth. Food was super fresh. They do take their time cooking it at the spot. We waited like 20min for our Main Dishes to be cooked.

    Stumbled into this place after having a flat tire and having to send our car to a shop nearby…read more This Persian restaurant doesnt disappoint a meat lover like me with their tender grilled meat and big portion. The place is spacious and clean, so you could probably bring a stroller inside and dine with your kid if you want to.

    We by chance lucked out and found this Persian restaurant after the original restaurant we had…read moreplanned to go to was closed early after seeing Lafarge lights on a Sunday night. We were also thinking of going to the Sushi restaurant next door but when we saw this restaurant was packed on a Sunday night, we knew we had to try. Much to our delight the food was very tasty. We ordered the meat platter to share. Every item was seasoned well and tender. Probably one of the best Persian I've had and I've tried quite a few in Lower Mainland. The service was a bit slow at first but it was a busy night and there was a big group there for a Christmas party. Once it cleared up, service was more attentive. Also to our delight, while we were towards the end of our meal, a table of men suddenly got up and started dancing! The owner/managed was so nice, he even turned up the music and encouraged us and the big group to dance. People were dancing and eating. We definitely didn't expect a fun quiet Sunday dinner turned to be a fun time. We'll have to venture out to Coquitlam again to try more dishes and hopefully perhaps there will be another impromptu dancing. lol.

    Brought doggie to have lunch with wife and I. We sat on the patio to get one last meal outside…read morebefore it got too cold. The server was nice and polite and we were quickly served a couple glasses of water and given the menu to peruse. The interior although we did not sit inside i did see when I went in to check in. It was very nicely decorated and looked cozy. I ordered a vaziri kebab and wifey ordered a chicken curry. We also ordered for starters a kashk o bademjoon. When the food arrived they were beautifully plated and the colors amazing. I had a taste of the starter and was delighted at the texture and flavor. Very tasty. My dish of kebabs were seasoned well and the meat was moist. Every bite was delicious with a mouth full of the rice. The was a side of salad on the plate as well, get your veggies in ;) but the star of the plate is the kebab. Wife's dish was spicy for her and she ended up taking it home as she's not good with hot spice. I think the spice level for me was fine, nice kick to it. Over all very nice meal and pleasant server. When in steveston and feeling like Mediterranean food def hit this place up!

We kept adding to our orders, and our server accommodated us very promptly. We ordered kebabs that were juicy, tender, and packed with flavor. I highly recommend the eggplant dip, and we also enjoyed the hummus. I tried the spicy curry chicken dish, which was really good; it had a nice kick, and I love spicy food! I read rave reviews about the chia seed lemonade, and it was just as good and refreshing as everyone said. I noticed a sign indicating that they will be relocating to a different spot in Steveston; I'll make sure to post a picture of that sign. I definitely recommend trying this place!

    We stopped by for lunch to enjoy some Persian food. We were the only customers during the late…read moreweekend lunch hours. We were seated right away. Two glasses of water were dropped off. For some reason, many restaurants tend to forget the toddler as a customer. However, our server did drop off the correct number of plates and napkins. Maybe she was concerned my child would drop the glass? After looking over the menu, we ordered an eggplant dip and a filet mignon and ground beef kebabs entree. We were told the meat and salad were made from organic ingredients. The food was tasty and presented nicely. I enjoyed the eggplant dip with pita. The dip was a mix of eggplant and tomato with seasoning and paired nicely with pita. The ground beef kebab was tender, juicy, and flavourful. The filet mignon was medium rare as requested and also flavourful. The risotto was perfection and my child ate most of it. The restaurant was clean and tidy. I liked the different doors hanging on the walls of the restaurant. Service was good. No complaints there. The menu prices were on the higher side, but I could taste the quality of the food. I think this is more of a date night worthy splurge. I would return when I am craving some kebabs.

So I stopped going there . And I do not recommend this place. Sorry
