Behesht Cafe & Lounge — Restaurant in Richmond Hill

Used to be good. I came here over 10 times.

Pros: decoration, authentic cultural furniture, food (Koobideh was fresh), serves alcohol, can usually get a seat without waiting, Persian music to more “modern” top music at times that others can enjoy. Mature crowd.

Cons: last 3 times the shisha was poorly made, I asked to server to check it but the flavour was weak. This is the last time I came as it happened 3 times and I asked the server if they were able to check. Server ignored it and added a coil, but I was smoking air at 3 different visits! Whatever brand they use, I would advise they change it.

I wish the server came to the table with the bill and pay the front, or show the total amount on the iPad prior to paying at the front. I was always cashed out with the total and added tax. It’s unprofessional not to show the invoice or bill as a payee. I always get handed the machine.

I smoke herbal and tobacco shisha at home, this was very poorly made. I understand only herbal can be served, please make it worth it. I stuck with this business during the tipping try out that was added and removed which I support regardless and opening and closure with Covid and I get it’s tough.

I feel bad for any shisha business where clients hold 1 shisha and water,...

Hi and happy new year to everyone ! Okay so this cafe is not a good place to chill and relax ! But a good place to get party like feeling since they have dj and all but there are multiple problems that i found which are the dj took too long to figure out the peoples vibes to match the music with it and everything and thats a very bad thing when you are charging people for it ! Yes that is true they only charge you if your not spending enough money to certain amount but the problem is if you went to this place enough times you'll understand that most of the people go there for shisha or they are just there to have small meals like fryes, drinks and all so yeah its not a good thing oh and the foods quality is very low ! Both fastfood items and other types (persian specifically) and the prices are high for that type of quality . But other than that it has a good environment with seat tables and access to everything they are responsive enough to bring you what you want before running out of patience or pressing the ring for the third time 😁 other than these everything else was awsome and clean and if not perfect its not gonna be less than good . And btw they have a very strict behavior about covid so have everything ready when you go there and listen...

Today was our second time ordering from this restaurant. The first time we were not very happy with the food quality but we thought maybe they were too busy so we didn't bother too much. Today we ordered the breast jooje kebab and koobideh. the chicken was a little bit undercooked and did not taste very fresh. However, the koobideh is clearly raw inside! I had ordered this for my kids but did not feed them this. Sorry to see some restaurants don't put in as much effort as they should. Seems like they just want to get over with the day....(I made the mistake of rating on UberEats before opening the koobideh) I just read your reply and I can't seem to post an answer so I am replying here. First of all, our food was not late. We called you to ask just incase no Uber was available due to bad weather, but they were available. Second, requesting meat to be well done is for the outside of the meat..the inside has to be cooked completely anyhow. It's not steak! And instead of spending time trying to justify peoples' bad or negative review, I think you should just read reviews and focus on upgrading and enhancing your service quality. That is what Google Review is for. Have a...
