🇨🇦 This West Van Persian Restaurant 😋
Will Have You Dreaming About It for 364 Days After One Bite! Hey foodie friends, Miraas Restaurant & Bar— Promise me you’ll go, okay? ❓❗️ Took my parents here to experience a luxurious West Van weekend vibe, and wow… just WOW. [💋] Among all the famous Persian spots in West Van, we chose this one—and after the first bite, my mom 🤯 declared it her new #1 Western restaurant! 🍴 Sharing our ordered dishes below (not all were hits, but here’s the honest breakdown!): 🍲 Barley Soup - $6.99 Dad’s pick for a starter! A classic Persian-style soup with a slightly tangy broth and soft barley grains. Decent, but not mind-blowing—more of a cultural experience than a must-order. 🫤 🔥 Warm Starter Platter - $14.99 A trio of appetizers served with signature Persian naan 🫓 (which was SO fragrant—mom instantly fell in love!). The two eggplant dips were polar opposites: one smooth and delicious, the other overly smoky (almost burnt-tasting 😵). The eggplant roll with yogurt sauce? SUPER sour—we all took one bite and… nope. 🙅♂️ Verdict? Skip this platter unless you’re feeling adventurous. 👅 Tongue Dish - $23.99 Observed a solo diner devouring this dish with pure joy, so we HAD to try it—and HOLY COW (or should I say, holy tongue?). Thick-cut beef tongue, already buttery and tender, drenched in a creamy, sweet-savory sauce. One bite, and it melted like a cloud of flavor—unreal texture, unreal taste. 🌟 MUST ORDER! 🍢 Soltani Kebab - $39.9 The most expensive dish (a mixed kebab platter), but not the star of the show. If you’re craving Persian kebabs, downtown spots do it better. Saving grace? The rice with a crispy tahdig (crust)—SO GOOD. 👌 🐑 Baghali Polo with Lamb Shank - $23.99 The SECOND standout dish after the tongue! Fall-off-the-bone tender lamb shank with perfectly seasoned rice. Pro tip: Mix the roasted tomatoes into the rice—creates a tangy, almost “tomato fried rice” vibe that cuts through the richness. 😍 🎉 Final Verdict: That 4.8 Google rating? DESERVED. Highlights: The tongue and lamb shank—legimately unforgettable. Bonus? Prices are surprisingly reasonable for West Van! 📸 Photo-worthy plating, simple but elegant ambiance. Service? Basic (don’t expect much attention). But in a sea of Persian restaurants, this one FIGHTS for its spot. Worth the trip! 🚗💨 #VancouverLife #VancouverEats #CanadianCuisine #FoodieAdventures #PersianFood #WestVanDining
