Taftan Kebob

The food is not good. I ordered the koobideh kabob and a stewed eggplant dish. The kebab had an off putting smell, the meat tasted unseasoned, the wrap was not toasted. I took two bites, the food was expensive for the quantity I received. I ate the cucumbers and tomatoes in the wrap and threw the rest out. The eggplant dip was really oily, I probably poured out three tablespoons of oil. It wasn’t seasoned well. Unfortunately, I ended up throwing both out because the kabob smelled off and the eggplant was oily, both did not taste good and lacked seasoning. The service was fine but I would advise to avoid eating here based on my experience.

I visited this location for the first time and bought prepared food as well as meat from their butcher shop. I was impressed with the quality of their products and services. Majid and others did a great job with giving us a superb service. I will definitely shop here again.

After going to their yonge and weldrick location for many many years, I happened to be in north Richmond hill (yonge and king road) and saw this other location! What can I say, very friendly welcoming service, clean organized interior and very fresh quality meat. Prices are average compared to the other 500+ kabob restaurants in this area but Taftan seems to stand out simply because of their reputation and large portion sizes. Today I got the barg (filet mignon beef) combo with rice and a side order of a chicken leg skewer. And hey they even threw in free cans of pop, lots of butter packets for the rice, packets of sumac (that tangy but distinct middle eastern red spice), and a pita bread! I’ll be sure to return again.

Used to be good, now their kabobs are DRY and VERY SMELLY. This is a picture of their “salad” (no dressing no nothing). Also, there's was hair stuck to the butter. This is extremely unhygienic, especially during Covid.Do not eat here.

I am absolutely amazed... they are still in business. Completely flavorless, soggy tomatoes, half wilted lettuce.. zero spices or sauce. Needless to say I will never be returning. Worst kebab I've ever had, hands down. And it cost $9 !! For about 50cents for of horrible food. Never again!!!!

If i could rate them less than 1 star i would. Horrible quality of food, the rice was old, the meat was old and not cooked well, the salad had turned brown and looked rotten. I spent $70 on 3 different dishes, what a waste of money!!! We have been customers since they opened, we have always supported them but yesterday's experience was unacceptable!!! I don't recommend them, don't waste your money and don't jeopardize your health!

I ate a quarter of it and it was not good. I will never return to this restaurant again. The only thing that was good was the can of coke. I ordered 10 minutes ahead and got there on time when it was fresh and I threw most of it out. Please do yourself and never go here.

We have just moved to this neighborhood and have ordered food in this place many times already; this is how much I like Taftan kebob. Exciting stuff right? Like the food quality and friendly staff. But today I had the most bizarre experience: a customer was on the phone with them, apparently ordered food but although they had emphasized their location three times on the phone with them, the customer insisted she had heard Finch and Yonge. That means Taftan Kebob should through food out and I understand if they are upset. The cashier was upset, but kept it together and respected my presence, but the chef was shouting (I doubt the customer heard anything over the phone, it was only me and the cashier hearing his pleasant words. Yay) and cursing like a sailor or worse, and it even got worse when he found out the customer was female. Bravo. I regret I ordered; I should have left immediately. Not because he was cursing, but because he didn’t care if I was there. It was very uncomfortable and even stressful, guess for both me and the cashier. They surprised me with some awesome tah-dig and fesenjoon, and the food was good as always (hence two stars and not zero!), but will I go back to this location? I really doubt it. So they lost not only a lot of food, but also a good customer most probably.

Always reliable and dependable quality food with reasonably priced portions. Friendly staff and quick service.
