Reviews for Pomegranate Restaurant in Toronto, Ontario
I have no idea how this place got 4.4 rating. Most pathetic food I’ve ever eaten. We ordered 2 dishes via Uber eats and the quality of the food was so below average. Adas polo + braised lamb shank was stinking so bad and Kask-e Bademjoon + Barbary flatbread was ... undercooked. My tummy started to ache after eating that. Worst food on earth. Wouldn’t recommend me going here ever. Read more
My first time trying a Persian cuisine. Awesome place! I had a wonderful experience with new flavours that wakened my tasting pallets. Considering I have a sweet tooth, I love their ice cream with rose water…so refreshing to end the meal!
Amazing Persian cuisine. Taste of foods were awesome and service was perfect. Only point was about the menu that does include most popular Persian dishes such as kebabs. If you are looking for Persian delicious rice with lamb shank, do not hesitate to try this restaurant. 👍
This place is going in my favourite restaurants of all time list. Although the rice leaves a bit to be desired, literally every other dish served here is top tier. From the apps with baba ganoush and olives to the mains with the lamb stew. Extremely intense flavours balanced exquisitely. ... Huge huge recommend. Read more
We visited with friends on a weeknight. The restaurant looks pretty, with culturally adopted interior designs. I went to wash my hands before the meal, but spent few minutes just looking around in the washroom, it was very nostalgic. The attention to details was fascinating. The food however was average. We ... ordered Fesenjoon, baghali polo, boz ghorme and kashk bademjan. Boz ghorme was served with rice which was odd - traditionally it is served with bread. Homemade Boz ghorme is like a paste, when you take time to mash all ingredients. The one we were served, had chunks of meet and 2 fried eggplant on top. Eggplants were under cooked. Fesenjoon was the best of all dishes we ordered, I could call that “home style”. The rest of dishes were not really impressive. I have a strong sense of smell and I could smell the Lamb shanks even though I was not the one ordered them. Portions are not generous. My husband was still hungry and we ordered another portion of rice to eat with left over stews. The plates are large themselves but the rice portion on it is not enough for a man lol, we still had half of our stew and no rice left. Overall, we drove for an hour to get to Pomegranate, then spent another 10 minutes finding a carpark. I wont come back, even though it was okay to give it a try. Read more
