Thank you for the amazing service! From the moment we walked in, everyone was welcoming, friendly, and attentive. The food was fresh, flavorful, and served quickly. I definitely recommend the Kobideh--it was perfectly seasoned, juicy, and cooked to perfection. The portions were generous, and everything tasted authentic. The atmosphere was clean, comfortable, and made for a great dining experience. Shoutout to Shatter Abbas and the team for their outstanding hospitality and dedication to quality. I'll definitely be coming back again and recommending this place to friends and family! read more

Was the koobideh and gormeh sabzi delicious? Yes. Did we get enough rice to last for a week to eat with every single meal? Also yes. Still good food nonetheless. read more

Shater Abbas Express - Koobideh and Gormeh Sabzi - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Was good, but not as good as my previous landlords 'too much food' extras I used to get. Still a good place.

Shatter Abbas started in 2911 at 8141 Yonge St., Thornhill as a family-owned restaurant and successfully attracted food lovers by its delicious, healthy Persian dishes. They started Shatter Abbas Express in 2015 located at 804 Sheppard Ave. East, Toronto. Now they have 4 different locations: Centerpoint Mall, Food court Sheppard Ave. East Queens Quay Thornhill Their Special Hamburger is a must-try. It has the best combination of spices and sauces. Absolutely amazing. Kebabs are fresh and delicious. My favorite was Barg Kebab. Chicken skewer was so tender and well-cooked. read more

Honestly didnt like rice and koobide never try it again, they used artifial yellow color instead of Zafron on rice! It is awful for Iranian resturan!! read more

It's a take out Persian place and the serving is gigantic...I did not expect that big. One serving is good for two. They serve it in a ready to go container because they know you can't finish it. Just ask for a cover and bring it home. Food is good and reasonable prices. Lots of parking. They have a patio for summer and small dinning area on the side. read more

Ordered a large birthday dinner. Most dishes were cooked either poorly or overdone. The rice in all dishes was particularly poor. The roast eggplant was good. Expensive, definitely not worth the price read more

A great location for when you're craving Persian food. I ordered a chicken and beef kobideh platter and the sultani which comes with the beef kebab and a skewer of amazing juicy steak pieces. The rice is just perfect - and you get lots! Friendly staff and great customer service. read more

Been 2nd time visit this joint. They have good good. If you not big eater, better if you have friend to share the food. The koobideh dinner good for 2 people. They employees and the owner is friendly. read more

This place is a scam. The food is low quality The service sucks The prices are high and keep going higher Avoid!!! read more

Bought take out family meal. The meats were all very flavourful and juicy. Would come again.

Disgusting food, not even close to persian food, ordered a Ash Reshteh , look like anything just Ash Resheh, test was really bad. I'll ad a photo and copy of receipt as well. read more

Good food huge quantities and very affordable prices. The place itself is small with few seats but then again it's an express take out store. All of their items on the meny are delicious and the quantities are in matched, whether you get the plates or the pita raps, very few places provide these quantities. Even the fries are delicious, almost like their grilled so they have a different flavour. Very solid place. read more

Amazing food, friendly service and fantastic recommendations. Proud to support Yonge and st. Clair businesses. You won't be disappointed

Beef kebabs were very delicious!!! $9.99 for 2 long kebabs, basmati rice with safran, salad and barbeque tomato was a great deal, we bought it as take outs, it is amazing quality and quantity for the price!!! will definitely go there often when i crave this type of food. read more

Great things come to those who wait. I ordered the koobideh wrap although if I was hungrier, I could gone for some of those traditional dishes or kebab plates. It's an express location so there really isn't any seating which probably encourages you do to takeaway either to home or back to your workplace lunchroom. It's a little hot in there and that's because of the bed of coals they got smoldering away on the other side of the counter. I watched them slowly cook that skewer of spiced ground beef over the coals and it looked very enticing. The chef was so patient in constantly fanning the coals to get the heat going and probably giving you that charcoal flavour you can't get with just a natural gas grill. They stuffed the wrap with tomato, pickles and their homemade sauce. I took a bite and it was just super. Very satisfying and worth that wait. read more

Great hole in the wall! I was feeling to try something different so thought to give it a try. And man, I am glad I did.

Same great place but the prices have been increased by about 12%. Why - I'm not sure. Lunch for 3 costs about $40 plus taxes. Makes me a bit upset seeing as it used to cost about $10 per head before the renovations. P.S - washrooms no more. read more

We've only done take out here and its great for it. We've had the burger (very good), the chicken kabob sandwich (I really enjoyed it), and the kababs (I've had better but for take out and the cost, its just right). I would recommend this place for take out Persian food if you are in the area. read more

Very generous portions. Food was great and people there are friendly. Not too much seatings. Parking can also suck from time to time. Took take out for our leftovers and left them in the car when we went to return something from Ikea. When we return the car smelled like gas lol Don't recommend eating the food in the car or getting take out unless you want your car to smell after. read more

They've increased all prices by almost 30%. Comparable proper Iranian restaurants charge the exact price for a proper sit down experience. This place charges the same price for a restaurant that's freezing cold due to door constantly opening/closing resulting in cold food. People behind you constantly bump into you. Terrible experience; please refer to photos for recent price increases. It used to be a decent place, but like every other Iranian restaurant, they became greedy. read more

Overpriced and bland. The food is really nothing special. Bland. It is quite expensive for what you get. Overall, it's OK, but I wouldn't recommend it. read more

The worst food ever I Took from a restaurant in Toronto (GTA) The food was awful and We could not even eat a small portion of it and when We called the restaurant they didn't accept that the food was cooked at least two or three days ago and they had only warmed it up and sent it. Never, ever I order food to this place. read more

Just wanted to update my review. Employees are extremely rude. They dont try to help you at all and instead they pass you off to the next one that doesnt try to help you either. Honestly i just come here for the food but its very annoying when they treat you like crap. read more

I order kobideh , food was average and price was high i mean very high for that quality of food . So much rice. 2-3 years ago was better now all about making money so guess what quality goes down. read more

pictures of food is not even close to what you get. way overpriced and definitely not worth it. stopped by lakeshore store and for a take out place they charge full price dining but food wasn't good at all. waste of money read more

Shater Abbas is a good Persian restaurant with variety of foods including fast food like burgers and it's staff are very nice and friendly

I understand some decent restaurants are struggling to survive financially but it's unethical to misrepresent and lie to customers to save money. On Uber eat page they represent the "1 skew kebab" coming with rice. We ordered a few times and each time it came with side rice. Today, maybe bc it was one portion and very small order, they only delivered 1 skew kebab in a large tray. looking so flimsy and messy. I called and explained how I always get rice with the order for the same price. The girl on the phone said I don't know how you used to get rice. I told her even the picture on Uber website shows the full meal, can you ask someone who knows better than you? She put me on hold without even letting me know, she came back and said manager is busy, UNBELIEVABLE!! When I insisted to talk to the manager another guy picked up and said contact Uber and get refund. It's unbelievable how they don't respect your time and not even apologizing. This was my last time ordering from them when I have at least 4 other options in the same plaza read more

I'm very disappointed with the attitude of the cashier.he didn't know how to take care of customers and interact with them.

best and biggest hamburger i ever had !- Fries are extremely tasty, made with non-recycled cooking oil, the way fries should be made !! Other fa food chains should take a course at this place great friendly service read more

Nice addition to the Bayview and Sheppard area. This store replaced Burger Hut, which had been there as long as I can remember. Shatter Abbas Express serves Persian style BBQ skewers, as well as various stews and dips. They also have a few burgers/hot dogs/sandwiches for those who want that kind of thing. It's very clean inside, and there are a few tables that seat about four people each. You go up to the counter and order, and then they make your food. Skewers are made to order. It's kinda cool. You can stand at the counter and watch them cook the skewers. One very unique thing I've never seen at any other Persian restaurant is that where they have their takeout forks and napkins and stuff, they have little packets of sumac (a reddish spice powder with a smokey sour taste?) Very cool. Their cheapest skewer meal at $9.99, the koobideh (a mix of ground lamb and beef), comes with two fairly large skewers, a roasted tomato, and rice (or half rice and half salad). I got half rice, half salad. My skewers, rice, and tomato were put into a big square takeout box, and it was full. It was quite amusing, because my full box of rice was only "half" of the regular portion of rice. They put my salad in another takeout box. This takeout box is the typical rectangular takeout box (or large size takeout box). The salad was lettuce based and then cucumber slices, cherry tomatoes, red onions, red cabbage and lemon slices were placed on top. Thousand Island served on the side (This was the tiniest portion of salad dressing for the largest "half" salad I've ever seen). Everything was very fresh and very flavorful. A very good meal for a very good price. Oh. I saw a guy ask for some kind of flatbread and I asked how I could get one as well. They just added it to my box for free! Nice. Not fresh (came out of a bag), but still very tasty. Sometimes, the people behind the counter can't hear (or don't respond), but the man who was grilling the skewers was really friendly, and he answered all our questions. It is possible that some of the people behind the counter don't speak much English, but they definitely have fluent English speakers to serve you. Huzzah. Seeing as that meal was very easily split up into three meals, at $9.99+tax, a surprisingly cheap eat in a not very cheap area. read more

Shater Abbas Express - Koobideh kebab meal $9.99. Half rice, half salad. That's a lot of food for $10. - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

The food used to be much better and the service much faster. I'm not sure what happened!? Maybe new owners!? I don't think I'm going back.

Go here, get koobideh and barg kabobs. Koobideh is ground, spiced beef and barg is like steak / carne asada. The best koobideh and barg consistently I've ever had in my entire life as Persian person and food lover, especially at their low price points. I would recommend washing down with fresh, not carbonated, yogurt drink with mint. They also have good yogurt + cucumber side and eggplant side. If you like rice, get rice with your kabobs. The staff is also very nice! read more

This is my second time eating there. Went in on a Tuesday afternoon at 12:40pm, didn't get my meal until 1:28!! This is supposed to be an express place, ridiculous! They had a bunch of telephone orders before mine, and some guy who ordered a burger after me got his meal done within minutes and left 15 mins before I saw my meal. Meanwhile I sat there like a ass waiting for my meal and ended up late for work. Not even a simple sorry from the lady owner, even after I showed my displeasure. The chicken leg kebab was partially undercooked on the inside as well (thicker pieces). Plus the sweaty owner is wiping his head and neck with a towel while cooking over the grill and then right back to the grill without washing his hands. Food wise, it is just ok but prices are a bit steep. Seems like the only way you get decent service is if you call ahead and pre-order. Otherwise if you're in a bit of a rush and plan to drop in for a quick bite to eat, forget about it. read more

This restaurant has been open about 6 months. I walked in on a whim and I was pleasantly surprised. This may very well be the best Persian food I've ever had. Super fresh, high quality ingredients, great flavour. Meat was grilled perfectly. Not much space to sit down. Definitely a "to go" restaurant. A tad pricey, two or three dollars off my meal would've done the trick. read more

My first experience with Persian food and it's a great start! I ordered the koobideh kebab and it was tasty! Well seasoned mix of beef and lamb skewers. For beginners, imagine the texture of a meat ball spread out on a skewer. Then chared over a flame. Served with basmati rice. I want to try the jojeh kebab for my next visit and will report back. Also expect to wait for a bit since the meat is made to order! Be patient, the chef is working his magic and cooking your meat to perfection. read more

If I could give -5 stars to the quality of the food here and the hygiene and cleanliness I would! Tried them twice after as I happened to be in the area and needed some quick beef & chicken kebab. Friendly staff and the positive ends right here. The quality is terrible and while I was waiting for my food there was flies flying all left the place Next time if I'm starving I wouldn't set food in this low quality place. read more

The quality has decreased. The rice tastes bad and is like plastic. This place was much better beffore

We went in North York location last day the food was good, but the customer service was so rude and didn't respond properly and very bad. she was the worst customer service that ever we seen ... read more

The combos are a great value for around $30 and could easily feed 3 people- think 3 footlong skewers of grilled meat and a huge tray of simple salad. The koobideh (ground spiced meat) is especially good- the chicken and veal are tasty too. Simple strip mall decor, tables were clean, food was grilled to order within about 10 minutes, and staff was friendly (the grill guy was dancing as he fanned the flames), vibe was cheerful. Great place to eat after IKEA has sapped your energy :) Would definitely come back! read more
