Saha poutine had tons of interesting toppings, from halloumi to tahini to fried onions. Very substantive and easy to pretend it's a bit healthier than most poutines.

Service was quick and friendly, and the restaurant was clean and modern with a nice indoor/outdoor space. A more casual restaurant that's great for a laid back lunch or dinner.

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!

Even though it was close to closing, this family run business still cooked up an amazing combo platter for me. The combo platter had chicken, kebab, beef, tomatoes over rice. The proteins and tomatoes were perfectly grilled with right amount of char. The meats were tender and juicy. I was only going to eat half and save half for tomorrow, but I ended up eating majority of the entire plate and fell asleep in food coma bliss. 10/10 I would do it again.

Number 8 of our adventure - King Kabob Restaurant - May 1,…read more2021 Once again, we had to do a takeout for our latest culinary adventure. We have been concentrating on finding restaurants in the city of Abbotsford so we can limit our traveling, trying to keep safe during Covid. So, this time around it was Georgine's pick and she chose The King Kabob. This is a Persian restaurant that is very near to Georgine's place so we picked the food up and ate it at her place. This food was so fresh and healthy. Nothing is fried and everything was so tasty. We all found the fresh salad with the slightly sweet and wonderful yogurt dressing so refreshing. The meal portions were very generous. We ordered a side of Dolma's these were made with split peas, rice and herbs they were absolutely delicious. They would make a nice light lunch along with a salad. Sadie's choice was the Queen Kabob. This was a skewer of marinated and flame broiled top sirloin and skewer of marinated chicken (Bakhtiari). This came with fluffy basmati rice, salad, pita and humus. She was pleased with her meal. Deb chose the Koobeede Kabob with was two seasoned minced beef skewers along with the rice, salad, humus and pita. She did think that next time she would ask for the extra spicy version, although she enjoyed her meal very much, she wants to try the spicier version. We were given the choice of regular, medium spicy and extra spicy for all of our meals. Georgine chose the lamb shank that was falling off the bone tender and had a delicious perfectly seasoned gravy. This meal came with a salad and a basmati rice that was mixed with lima beans and dill that was so very flavorful. Georgine said she is going to try recreate this rice dish. This was an excellent restaurant and we all loved their food. Next time we go after the Covid restrictions we will know what to expect. So good! We all give the King Kabob a solid 5 out of 5 stars.

As I walk in, instantly, a wall of alluring smells of beef kabobs, grilled vegetables, chicken kabobs and everything else sizzling and searing.

I will definitely be back whenever I'm in Abbotsford BC.

I had the Sampler Plate, which includes baba ganouj (baba ganoush) or hummus (your choice -- I…read morechose both, half & half), falafel, dolma, roasted veggies (broccoli, which was a bit burned, and eggplant, which was sooo delicious), couscous, and pita. First, the couscous is not the usual couscous we've all had. This is Lebanese couscous, which is so different as to be unrecognizable as "couscous". It is so very good, I could have a whole meal of that and be happy. I generally prefer baked falafels, but this fried one was great; crispy on the outside, and soft and green on the inside. I've avoided dolma in the past, as I had it once years ago and it was terrible. But this dolma was good enough for me to stop avoiding it in the future. People were very nice, and it took less than 10 minutes for my order to be ready. It's a grocery store with a deep selection of many items, such as spices, pastas, canned fish, .... (see photos). I enjoyed this enough, I came back again about a week later for another Sampler Plate meal. My only slight peeves are, I wish there were a bit more to the salad (which isn't even listed as one of the sampler items, so a bit hard to complain!), and that the pita had some whole grains in it (I find white wheat boring).

The fatayer, lachma b'ajeen, ma'amoul, my personal favorite graibe are all here baked on the premises. He has a sublime looking knaifeh and baklawas. Small place but full of brilliant Syrian and Middle Eastern delights. The ma'amoul he makes are better than mine per my husband. Definitely recommended.

We were concerned…read morebecause we weren't terribly hungry but had set the reservation early to accommodate my young nephew's bedtime. We ended up eating more than expected because the food was delicious, light and refreshing. We tried a bunch of the cold mezze (hummus, baba ganouch, kibbeh, and the fattoush salad) and they were all fantastic. Hummus was so smooth and flavorful, baba ganouch and fattoush refreshing and tasty. Pitas are served warm and are so deliciously light and airy. We also enjoyed the salmon and kibbeh kebabs - all were so yummy and well prepared. Apologies if I've spelled her name incorrectly but Mirna was amazing. She was so helpful in answering any of our culinary queries, so friendly (especially to my young nephew) and so attentive. The space is beautiful- elegant without being stuffy. Near the waterfront and easy to access. Highly recommend!

Then they told us they had run out and would serve us Costco pita. Upon leaving we saw people with Lebanese pita. A group spending 1600 getting shafted on pita. Not cool and super cheap. Service is slow here as they are understaffed.
