Pasargad Restaurant

Absolutely exceptional ㅎㅎ

I enjoyed with my friend for a first time, Persian’s foods, Kabab-e-Darbari — a tender Shishlik(Shandiz) and juicy Kabab Koobideh, perfectly paired with a serving of the finest Chelow (rice). Heaven down on earth, and the server, Ava brought to us an exceptional service with always with a big smile.

At Pasargad Restaurant, we take pride in delivering an unforgettable dining experience, right here in the heart of Coquitlam, Vancouver.

We didn’t take any photos of the food, but everything was seriously delicious and full of flavor. The presentation was beautiful, and everything tasted fresh.
We had the mixed kebab platter, fish kebab, kashk-e bademjan, marinated olives, shallot yogurt, salad, and rice, all super tasty and well-prepared.
The service was great too, fast and friendly.

I only took a picture of the ice cream, but that’s because it was the one letdown.
We were expecting "Akbar Mashti" you know, real traditional saffron ice cream. But what we got was vanilla with food coloring and pistachio slivers. It looked the part but didn’t taste like the authentic thing at all. We were really looking forward to it, so it was a bit of a letdown to end the meal.

That’s the only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5.

We’ve been to Pasargad several times for their kabobs, and they’ve always been very flavorful and delicious. The servers are also welcoming and attentive, which makes each visit a pleasant experience. Definitely one of our go-to spots for Persian kabob!

pasargad should be a pass because what is this "food"? their water was the best thing served today....all of their skewers- lamb, chicken, and beef tenderloin, and beef, were so dry that my saliva got sucked away instantly. not only was it drier than those dry texters, but it was bland- it just twisted like the meat with salt. 1/5
dont even get me started on their beef stew... it just tasted like cinnamon with NO other flavours in there. the cinnamon was so revolting that i didnt even dare to take another bite of this mess -5/5
however their rice was fine it tasted like rice with salt and not even safforon

Absolutely delicious Ghaliyeh Mahi!
I had the Ghaliyeh Mahi at Pasargad Restaurant and it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had — rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The fish was fresh, the herbs were just right, and the spice level was authentic without being overpowering. As someone from the south of Iran, I can say this is the real deal.

Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for authentic Persian seafood. Friendly service and cozy atmosphere too!

Good service, decent portions and tasty food. We ordered one chicken kabab and a Vaziri. They both tasted good. Staff is friendly and professional.

The staff are friendly, but they might not check on you often, so they may miss refilling your water. The quality and taste of the food are okay. However, the gheimeh stew on tahdig was served cold, some parts of the meat were still cold, suggesting it wasn't freshly made or properly warmed up. Kashke bademjon was beautifully designed. The menu offers a good variety of options. Overall, it was an okay experience, with some room for improvement. The portions are big, and there's plenty of space to seat large groups. Plus, there's free parking right in front.The decor is nice, featuring some traditional Persian carpets on the walls.

Totally recommend ordering the dogh. It was so creamy and delicious

Food is delicious, the kebabs are soft & juicy (they lack spices & seasoning) but still they are one of the best beef kebabs I’ve had in lower mainland. Portion size is good for the price. But the service here is not great, our server had hard time understanding what we were asking for & we had to repeat ourselves multiple times.

We had a lunch meeting there with our team members.
The service is amazing, and the customer service was perfect.
The food was very yummy and nice and clean.
The portions were bigger than normal.
The workers were very friendly.
The designs and wall arts were so beautiful. Highly recommended.
We are going there more. 👏
Thank you!

This is my first time trying Persian cuisine. I ordered the kashk-o-bademjoon (mashed eggplant) and chenjeh kebab, suggested by the waitress. The pita bread basket was cold and oddly enough came with a whole uncut quarter onion. Both the mashed eggplant and kebabs had MASSIVE portions. The eggplants had a very interesting flavour profile which I am not accustomed to. It may take some getting used to it if you never had it before. The kebab was almost the size of my forearm and came with a mountain of rice - easily a meal for 2. It was delicious and seasoned perfectly. The rice was delicious as well but in hindsight I should have gone with half rice and half salad. Definitely an interesting experience at a new cuisine for me.
