from GoogleHad a great experience at Termeh Cafe Restaurant. The food was delicious, fresh, and full of authentic Persian flavors. Every dish we tried was well prepared and very enjoyable. A special thanks to the lady who was serving us—she was incredibly attentive, friendly, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout our visit. Her hospitality made the experience even better. I would definitely recommend Termeh Cafe Restaurant to anyone looking for good Persian food and excellent service.
I had a wonderful experience at Toranj Restaurant! The food was absolutely amazing, and the Lamb Shank was truly outstanding ,incredibly tender, flavorful, and delicious! What made it even more special was the warm, homemade taste of the food. Every bite felt like it was made with love, just like a delicious home-cooked meal prepared by a mother. I highly recommend giving this place a chance and treating yourself to their amazing food. If you’re looking for a meal that is both comforting and unforgettable, you definitely need to try their Lamb Shank. Trust me, you won’t regret it! A little taste of home in every bite!
Termeh Signal Hill – A gem of elegant Persian dining. The atmosphere is calm and refined, with stylish décor and consistently warm service. My go-to lineup: pan-fried rice with beans, sautéed eggplant, or hummus with pita and olives to start, then the Special Beef Koobideh or Lamb for the main. There’s also a great selection of chicken platters and mixed meat kebabs, available as plates or bowls. I’ve been coming here for nearly six years—long overdue in finally leaving this review.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ As someone from Bakhtiari heritage who takes "Koobideh Kebab" very seriously, I pay attention to every detail; from the quality and preparation of the meat, to the components of the kebab meat and how it's grilled over the fire or charcoal, the quality of the rice, the authentic Persian atmosphere, and the hospitality of the staff. I can honestly say that I have not found a better Koobideh Kebab in the all restaurants anywhere in Vancouver, Edmonton, or Calgary. Everything was outstanding. The kebabs were perfectly seasoned, incredibly juicy, and grilled to perfection. The rice was authentic and delicious, the atmosphere truly felt like home, and the staff were warm, welcoming, and professional. If you're looking for genuine Persian kebab at its absolute best, this is the place to go. Highly recommended!

Toranj is one of the best Persian restaurants in Calgary! The Koobideh, lamb shank, and Kashk-e Bademjan are absolutely delicious! Amazing food, authentic Persian flavors, and wonderful hospitality. Highly recommended! ❤️
Taraneh was an amazing host! She was very welcoming, and we really appreciated her hospitality.
The food is so good!
Delicious food! My daughter and I visited this recently and manager was gracious enough to let us dine in before opening hours. Looking forward to coming back soon.
The food was lovely! The beef kebab and chicken was thoroughly cooked,served with fresh basmati rice and lovely butter to make your rice all wet so your food doesn't feel as dry.in my opinion the sizes of each dish was very balanced and not too much for one person like my other experiences at Persian restaurants.the service was also good!
Unforgettable persian food taste with varieties as you see in the pictures.
I normally don’t leave reviews, but every time my family and I visit Termeh Restaurant, we are welcomed so warmly and served the most amazing food. The owner, the staff, and everyone there are incredibly kind and caring. In my opinion, it is the best restaurant in Calgary. The food is always fresh, delicious, and made with great care. One thing that truly touched me was when I mentioned that my daughter loves cucumbers. Since then, without us even asking, they always bring her a plate of fresh cucumber. It’s these thoughtful gestures that make this place so special. I really can’t say enough good things about Termeh. Wonderful food, wonderful people, and an atmosphere that always makes us feel at home. Highly recommended!
Termeh Restaurant is easily one of Calgary’s hidden gems. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm, elegant, and genuinely welcoming. The staff go above and beyond to make you feel at home, and every dish tastes like it was made with real passion and authenticity. The koobideh was perfectly juicy and flavorful, the saffron rice was aromatic and beautifully prepared, and the stews were rich, comforting, and unforgettable. You can tell the ingredients are fresh and the recipes are traditional. Even the presentation was impressive. What truly sets Termeh apart is the combination of incredible Persian cuisine, outstanding service, and a cozy atmosphere that makes you want to come back again and again. Whether you’re trying Persian food for the first time or already love it, this place is an absolute must-visit in Calgary. Highly recommended — easily 5 stars!
