Great Persian supermarket with lots of variety. I'm so glad I was able to find clotted cream here (it was made fresh). The service is friendly and prompt - and the store has a good energy to it. I'll be back for more amazing & delicious groceries! read more

The kabob was juicy, ash was delicious and the hot fresh bread was so good! The service was very hospitable.

One of the most popular store in North York I really love to bya all of my stuff over here and there is one ladies name Andisha in cashier department she is so good with kind heart her smile give us lots of energy read more

The sweets in the fridge are expired and smell bad. Don't waste your money on the stuff in the fridge next to the front door.

Amazing staff! They alway make sure I find what I am looking for. The food is so delicious. You should try their fresh backed breads. Thank you Super Arzon! read more

Honestly i love this place, but for the past 8 months they changed the way the make their koobideh kebab, It's gotten really thinner it almost looks like a belt. And because it's gotten so thin it's gotten dryer as well, I've complaint to the workers in the past but I guess they just ignored it. If they change back the way the use to make, It I would come back in a heartbeat, but until them I have to go somewhere else. This was my go-to place for koobideh and especially when I have family gatherings, But besides that. they sell everything from sweets to their deli meats which are really good I hope the owner sees this review, because I really like this place and I really hope they change the koobideh kebab back to the way it use to be. read more

If you are craving Persian food at 2 o'clock in the morning , this is your go to place! Super Arzon is a Persian grocery store that offers fresh authentic Persian food made on the other side of the shop. I went with my best friend who is half Persian, and she did all the ordering. They grill all the kabobs once you place in a order, which makes it very fresh. I ordered the Vaziri combo, which has one beef and one chicken kabobs on top of basmati rice, with a grilled tomato on the side. My friend got Koobideh, which included two beef kabobs on top of basmati rice and a grilled tomato on the side. The food portion was definitely more than I anticipated, but prices were very reasonable because of what was given. Although the location is quite far from me, I would make the travel there just to purchase the food. The parking lot may be a little tight and busy, but it depends on the hour of the day. It is on Yonge street, and it is always busy day and night ! read more

Arzon Supermarket - Grocery Near Me - North York, Ontario

Honestly, sometimes I prefer going here instead of the other next door kebab place because of their friendly and super nice staff behind the food counter. I'm pretty good with my Persian food names, so whenever they see that I know exactly what I want, they are always so impressed and makes me feel welcomed. I always order vaziri with chicken leg meat, side of tadeek(I hope that's how you spell it lol) and extra chicken leg gravy on the rice. Amazing food as always and especially when it's late night coming home from the bar. read more

Cream filled sweets that are never too sweet to end your very satisfying kabab dinner from next door and Prince of Persia from Suuuuperrrrrr Arzon soon comes to mind as you get royally stuffed with their specialties. 24 hr operation and the bright lights shine proudly on the assorted nuts, baklava and dried fruits for your choosing. I, on the other hand come here for their cream filled pistachio topped dun dun dun (see picture) and no matter how messy it gets in the car, every crumb is worth vacuuming.... in about 2 wks though, winter delays life. read more

Really good Halal kebobs and best part is that they are open 24-7 and great pricing. Food is delicious and they have amazing posterizes also with some Persian ice cream. Must try! read more

Arzon Supermarket - Grocery Near Me - North York, Ontario

First time visiting and I got a chance to enjoy some sweets that I was familiar with from before. No idea what they are called but there's some that resemble a wheel and the others look like cream puffs. Got a chance to also try one that looked like an ice cream cone. Aside from Persian pastries, this store features some groceries at convenience as well as a variety of bulk items. Open late, and the prices are pretty decent as well. read more

Arzon Supermarket - Yummy pastries... - Grocery Near Me - North York, Ontario

I have been super Arzon's customer for many years. But, recently I understood that they are selling rotten products, and when you go back to give the rotten product back (even on the same day) they deny!! It happened to me just yesterday. I bought a bottle of yogurt liquid (in Persian, Dough). It was rotten and they didn't accept it when I went to them!! They have very poor customer service and management. I don't recommend them to you and I am changing my supermarket as well. read more

This is the greatest Persian bakery and diner in North York. I am not Farsi speaking and most of the customers are but they always prepare their grill with speed and flavour. We regularly order their grilled lamb with rice dinner. It comes with a grilled tomato and a drink or salad. Don't worry if you can't speak their language as everyone aways treats you courtesy and fairness. I brought a group of friends here one evening for an Iranian friend of ours who was flying to Tehran the next day. I guess because we were such a non-typical group to be there that they brought us a pastry to share after our meal. Very classy and totally unexpected for such a modest priced place. The decor is basic (kitchen type tables etc.) but the food and the people are top notch ! read more

Very bad customer service and they never accept customer feedback either. Poor quality of food with expired items all over the store. Just other days I told the cashier that the Kabab is not cook enough and had a bad taste in the mouth. He was very argumentative with very rude behavior without even offering replacement read more

Came in and picked up a beef and lamb skewer combo and some persian sweets. The meats were overcooked and burnt. The combo was supposed to include a salad, but I guess actually getting it depends on a dice roll. If it wasn't for the friendly lady behind the sweets counter, I would have given this place a 1-star. Come here if you enjoy the taste of charred and chewy meats. You won't leave disappointed! read more

Arzon Supermarket - Lamb/Beef skewer combo - Grocery Near Me - North York, Ontario

How much will I spend? If you want to get FULL here you will spend about 15-20$. A regular combo meal like koobideh with two skewers will be $10 including a drink. Ambiance and service? Well it's a grocery store, so maybe not the place for a first date :P. Service is awesome and everyone is friendly. I really like this place and have always had good experiences here. It is more of a takeout but you can sit down albeit in a cramped area. Personally I think this grocery store has a lot of character. You can have fun looking at the different food items they sell. Food? The only reason I come here, the food here has a very homely home cooked feel to it. The deserts are also really good. They have interesting cheeses, and shakes you can try. I've also tried some of their refrigerated rice puddings, and halwa which were great. They have a ton of menu items all of which are very tasty. Try the fesenjan which is walnut pomegranate chicken, so yum. Karafs is another one of my favourites. Interestingly I've never had the koobideh here so I can't speak for that because they have so many other interesting menu items to try. read more

Well, this was exciting, and confusing. Exploring is fun! And confusing. We came for lunch yesterday. It was our first time. My grandfather and my father walked in through their bakery entrance. My mom and I walked in through their prepared foods entrance. Those two entrances are separated by a doorway leading to a second story hair salon, if I'm not mistaken. It makes for a fairly strangely shaped store, but it is what it is. Super Arzon is a grocery store and (predominantly) takeout place. The store is fairly cramped, but boy do they have a lot packed into a small space. Most of their signage is not in English, so for people like me who only read English (and well, Koine Greek), you might not know what some things are. Thankfully, their prepared foods section does have a lot of English. I am incredibly appreciative of the fact that their prepared foods menu has pictures of everything as well as descriptions of things. Otherwise, I'd be stuck pointing. I don't mind the pointing, but I do appreciate knowing what I'm eating so I can order it again (or not). Two of the things I wanted to order weren't available that day, but there were plenty of other things I was keen on trying. For four people, we ordered the koobideh combo ($8.85), the chenjeh combo ($9.99), the baghali polo & lamb shank combo ($10.99), and the kashk bademjan combo ($6.99). Combo basically means you can choose a pop or a side salad to go with your order. Our total was $41 and a bit. We had about a big square takeout box and a half's worth of food left over after we finished. The kashk bademjan was a pureed mixture of eggplant, whey, caremelized mint and onions. I thought it came with bread. It did not, so my combo ended up being dip and salad. For $6.99, it wasn't cheap, but it was very tasty with our rice. The koobideh combo came with rice, a grilled whole tomato, and two long skewers of minced beef. The koobideh was tender. I wouldn't make the trek out here for it though. I know a few places that do similar for about the same price and they're closer to home. The chenjeh combo was the only one out of our main course combos that came in a rectangular takeout box instead of a square one. That was confusing. This one was a tad disappointing. One skewer of lamb. It just looked like lamb chunks haphazardly placed atop white rice, once again with a grilled tomato. The lamb was tasty, but for the price, I probably would not order this again. I would order the lamb chops. The baghali polo & lamb shank combo came with dill rice with fava beans, and a fairly large lamb shank. The lamb shank was very tender, but not very flavorful. It was also not as strong in lamb flavor as I would have liked. The rice was good. For price to portion though, this was a good deal. We also picked up two kinds of bread (at least one of which they made in house. It was still warm when we bought it!) and a slice of vanilla roll cake. The three came to a little over $5. Pretty good for price. The vanilla roll cake was filled with lots of cream and wasn't too sweet. I think I'm going to have the bread with curry tonight. It looks great. Lots of sesame. There are so many more things here I want to try! Next time I get the chance, I'm coming back. read more

Wow.. I really liked this place before knowing that bread i purchased last night is NOT FRESH and has GREEN MOLDS. I don't know why NONE of the packaging ate dated the manufacture date of the bread was baked ) All western and even Chinese places that sell bread have have manufacture and expiration date... see my pictures read more

This is a great local Middle Eastern supermarket. The staff here are super friendly, even though I kind of stand out, they treat me with respect and are really responsive. I love the hot food take out counter. I always get the braised lamb, the koobideh, and of course, the stews! They are super tasty, and the meat is grilled to order. Not to mention, the desserts! They are divine. They are paid by the pound, and it's worth every cent. This is my regular joint, now and forever! read more

Arzon Supermarket - These desserts are amazing!!! Charges by the pound and worth every cent. - Grocery Near Me - North York, Ontario

Bustling, filled to the brim Persian market with an eat-in and take out deli. You can find anything from lamb hearts to saffron ice cream sandwiches. There is a large selection of still warm, freshly baked breads, sweets and nuts. Friendly staff, stop in for a warm bowl of ash, skewered koobideh and tomatoes grilled over an open fire, jars of pickled vegetables, pomegranates, dates, feta cheese pulses or rice -- this place has it all. read more

Where this supermarket lacks in ambiance, it makes up for in its variety of Persian breads, and food counter. When you walk in, you are greeted by a counter, and different baked items available. You can choose from a variety of flatbreads, from personal sized, to dinner table sized; pick according to your appetite. I also stopped by to have some grilled lamb kebobs with saffron rice and a carbonated yogurt drink. They grill the kebobs to order on a traditional charcoal grill, and you can also get their precooked items to go with rice if that strikes your fancy. read more

This place is great, if you like to buy good Persian food for cheap. A lot of times we have guests over, we come here to buy the food, we can feed a whole army of people on the cheap. I would recommend. read more

I been coming here for few times and noticed the people at the restaurant counter are racists. They first serve the Persian speaking guests and then anyone who left, even though you were first. There is no sense of line up. I think this market is authentic not only in food but also in their service. read more

Super Arzon is a neat, tightly-packed Iranian grocery store. They have a great selection of products that represent the rich diversity of Persian foods. In addition to being a market, they have a lunch counter that serves fresh kebabs, rice, and other options. Limited seating is available for dine in patrons. At the front of the store there is a nice display counter full of pastries, cookies, and other treats. Parking is available in the front of the store, but it is limited. read more

I am ONLY reviewing the kitchen they have in the back. Very good food, obviously varies a little time by time, but generally consistent and tasty persian cuisine (I think that it is owned by some Iranian people). I honestly can say that when the older gentleman is cooking, the Barg kebab is just plain fantastic. Pros: Quality, Price, Friendly Service Cons: It's a bit of a dive. I'd give the kitchen a 10/10. read more

The atmosphere was gloomy, no one smiled and store was crowded and looked a tad messy. However I do really enjoy one Persian pastry that they sell of which I have not gotten the chance to get the name of it. It's a white square with cream, almonds and flaky layers. read more

I like how Arzon supermarket sells Iranian foods that is difficult to find elsewhere. We bought the fried vegetables in can, eggplant dip in a can, baked beans in a can, pistachio halva, flat bread with sour dough as one of the ingredients, and grapevine leaves filled with rice inside among other ingredients in a can. All of the ingredients we got were delicious. This is my first time hearing of fried vegetables in a can. The ingredients consisted of minced parsley, fenugreek, spinach, and other greens. The eggplant dip in a can was delicious too. I have not seen such huge flat bread before coming into this store. The flat bread was delicious when lightly toasted. I like how a few steps away, more Iranian stores were accessible, such as Khorak Supermarket which sells similar food items as Arzon Supermarket. The main difference I could see was that Khorak is a bigger store, which allows them to sell more and more variety, such as more produce. read more

Super Arzon is a great place to go if you're craving Persian food fresh off the grill. I love coming here after the gym for a hearty late-night meal. They're also a mini-market, selling groceries and Iranian items not available in regular grocery shops. Highly recommend trying their Ayran drink, Gata cake, and their sesame flatbread! read more

Been here a few times to pick up some food. We ordered 2 koobideh and 2 gheimeh with 2 carbonated doogh drinks. Each and every time we came by the food was delicious. The price point isn't bad either. It's worth the trip to Toronto for this food! read more

I experienced racism while shopping at this store. I have been shopping at this store since they opened almost 20 years ago and the store was a tiny shop. Over the years I had heard people talk about experiencing racism by some employees. Tonight I went there to do some shopping I was waiting in line in the take out section. a family of three adults were ahead of me at the cashier wanting to order food but did not know what they wanted. they kept on talking amongst themselves about what they should eat and the kept on telling the cashier they are going to eat it in their car and kept on saying they will have dinner in two hours and ... they were at the cash register before I stood behind them and about 3 minutes after I arrived I decided to tape their conversation (a friend is doing some research about internalized racism and these people's behaviour and lack of consideration for others appeared to me to carry an inflated sense of entitlement and superiority to others). few minutes later I finally asked the cashier it seems they have not decided yet can I pay for my food while they are deciding? he told me it is their turn, here (meaning in Canada) people wait for their turns, only Iranians don't do that. I tried to explain to him again that they have not decided yet and the rest of us need to get on our way and also tried to explain to him this comment was inappropriate and rude (I did not even tell him it was racist). He continued to be insulting. the young woman in that family who had brightened her skin tone with heavy make up started to be insulting me. the cashier went and got the store owner, Agha Kavous. I tried to expelling to him why I was upset he refused to listen to me and asked everyone to say Salvat. I told him I am not Muslim and don't know Salvat. after I paid for my food I went to the front of store to explain to him why I found the employee's comment offensive he refused to listen to me and kept on saying life if short. I had previously heard from others that they found the behaviour of some of the employees disrespectful towards Afghan customer and Iranian customers who are not dressed luxurious. I always told them I have not observed that. I don't dress luxurious and previously felt comfortable in that store. In fact that was the only Iranian store that I shopped for most of Iranian food. I am not sure if I would ever go back there again. If the owner is not interested to hear why somebody upset and when I went back to him I specifically told him that I found the employee's comment to be racist. He was not even interested to hear what the comment was. read more

Very nice people, she gave us samples of different pastries and helped us choose between ice creams and baklavas. We also broke a bottle of pomegranate paste when we wanted to put things in our car and she gave us another bottle. I was really impressed by her nice personality. read more

The owner was super nice and helpful and let me sample by touch and smell the Persian Saffron I was looking for before purchase. It was practically a pure red and I don't think any dies were used. This, compared with the really low price of less than $60/ounce might make "Super Arzon" the definitive local place to obtain genuine Persian Saffron, also saving on high shipping and import fees. read more

The bread the store baked is very much salary and not healthy. I do not recommend to buy bread baked in this store.

I bought two meat balls last Friday. One I eat only half and it was stale and tasted funny and it kept me awake with stomach ache almost whole night and I through out the second one. I am so disappointed. Just use the store as a grocery and not as a take out. read more

I've been going here for a couple years, and they never let me down. I always get beef kebab with tomatoes, rice, and the bottom of the pan. I've never been disappointed, absolutely love their kebabs. Also their sweets are regular but pretty good. Custard one is my favourite. read more

great people ... amazing food . it is bit stuffy .but it has it all . it would have been nice if they were bit bigger .
