Everything was in excellent condition. The food was perfectly cooked, juicy, and tender. The restaurant is clean, offering a relaxing and cozy environment where you can enjoy your meal while listening to beautiful Persian music. The lady owner was kind and professional, giving us peace of mind that the restaurant is managed by someone who truly knows how to run it.

Last night, we experienced a memorable night at this restaurant. Saboo is a cozy spot filled with Persian charm. As we entered, the warm lights and Persian décor made us feel right at home. The kebabs stole our hearts. Each skewer was packed with flavor, taking us on a culinary journey to the bustling streets of Tehran. The staff at Saboo were friendly and attentive, making our dining experience even more enjoyable. Plus, with plenty of parking available, we could relax and savor every bite without worry. They also had a beautiful decoration for Nowruz." Saboo is more than just a restaurant; it's a place where Persian flavors shine bright, inviting everyone to taste a piece of Iran.

Lovely service & delicious food

November 22, 2024

I ordered Kabab Koobideh and chicken pesto pizza. The quality and taste were not good at all. Pizza was made with a loaf of thick bread and a skinny layer of other ingredients barely any chicken in it. The seasoning for pesto pizza was odd. I have never eaten pesto pizza with the taste of ginger. Also, the kabab Koobideh had a high price and poor quality. There are way better Koobideh than this in other Persian restaurants with very reasonable prices. It was my first and LAST order from this restaurant.

We visited Saboo Restaurant with my family this weekend, and it was excellent once again! We came here two years ago and loved it, and the food is still just as great. We tried the koobideh, soltani, vaziri, and the salad all were delicious, and the service was even better. It s such a friendly place.

The food here is great. They have a very warm attitude with customers.

November 22, 2024

BEWARE: AVOID UNLESS YOU ENJOY BEING SCAMMED. I was purposely overcharged and was advised the by staff that prices went up but the website and menu prices havent been updated yet. Furthermore there were no notices of price increases. Obviously prices must go up over time but honest people would post a sign, add a note to the menus, or just inform people when they order. Since no effort was made, its safe to assume theyre knowingly scamming unobservant customers. I didnt even get an apology although I was begrudgingly given back the overcharged amount. The food is decent...too bad about the lack of ethics though.

Food was amazing and staff was very friendly and informative! Would highly recommend asking about how to eat each dish and which spices/ lemon to be added to which meat.

Simply one of the best places to eat on the North Shore. My office is down the street and I often come here for lunch. The owners are kind and very happy to accommodate any requests. My go to dishes: anything Persian (the kebobs are amazing!) as well as their pizzas (love the saffron infused dough), pastas, burgers and sandwiches. The best part is the restaurant has been revitalized and looks great. its clean, new and quiet and you can talk to your friends and have lunch meetings here without noise. Best part is the parking at the back.

The staff at this place are friendly and provide good service. However, I was not satisfied with the food. It seemed like the food was precooked, reheated, and served to us. The kababs did not taste good and even the rice seemed stale. While I appreciate the staffs hospitality, I dont think I would visit this place again.

We went to Saboo restaurant with my family and had an absolutely amazing experience. From the moment we walked in, its beautiful and modern decoration caught our attention. The atmosphere was delightful and calming, and we thoroughly enjoyed everything. Everything was very professional. The food was truly outstanding. Their kebabs, in particular, were incredibly delicious and fresh. Plus, we didnt have any parking issues at all Thats a problem thats always present in North Vancouver but not here because the restaurant had its own parking lot.

Also they allowed our DJ and made it easy for him to do his job too. I am very happy with my choice and Ms. Akram and her husband and their Amin and Negin honestly treated us like family.

Parking is a challenge in this location. Even movement in the area can be difficult during heavy traffic times. Expect to use Barrow Street, one block south of Main, between Harbour Ave. and the Petro Canada station. Ours was a first visit to pick up food for home consumption. The dining room is pleasantly decorated and the service was fine. A Friday evening traffic snarl meant the trip taking home chicken pesto and pulled pork sandwiches took too long. That meant the large servings of fries were limp and barely warm, and the sandwich breads a little soggy. However, the baklava was fine and quite delicious. This part of North Vancouver could use another dining spot so I hope Saboo succeeds. Id suggest dining in the restaurant if you aim to give it a try. Fresh from the kitchen is always best. Parking: Street parking and a short walk to the restaurant.

I had a not so pleasant experience at my first visit at this restaurant which was our Christmas party. We requested to have an earlier dinner than other guests which was denied by the owner. The only option was to wait for all the people to dine at the same time! Wait! You are still a restaurant and serve food upon your customers wish. Furthermore, foods were not brought to the tables. They handled the dished to us to bring to our tables like a fast food restaurant. Although I liked the taste of food, I never saw such an unorganized place. Maybe they do a better job at individual service but we were unfortunate to experience all this.

As a red seal chef who grew up in the Canadian city with the most restaurants per capita in the country, Im definitely a bit of a snob when it comes to food and dining out. I was thoroughly impressed with the team at Saboo. The food was absolutely amazing, from our appies to desserts. And the staff were so friendly and professional. I highly recommend Saboo Restaurant for your next night out!

A lot of Persians don t know about this place. I am telling you, the best Persian restaurant in Vancouver is Saboo, food is great quality with a reasonable price. Owners are so friendly and professional in service and make you feel home. Atmosphere and decoration is also great. They have plenty of parkings behind the restaurant in the back alley Parking: In the back, there is free parking

My recent visit to Saboo Persian restaurant was outstanding! We had a party of 10, and they effortlessly accommodated us just before their last call. The food was not only delicious but served promptly, despite the fact that a single lady was managing our large group. Its heartwarming to see a family-run place like this, where the service is both fast and friendly.

The best part is that the owner serves you and she is very nice, clear about things and helpful. Unfortunately the food was less than hoped for. The Greek salad had too much dressing. The pasta we ate had very small shrimp for being a prawn dish. The chicken wings are deep batter fried and a little over cooked. The Persian dish was nothing special. I will have to keep looking for a Persian place.

My family and I recently found this amazing Persian restaurant in North Vancouver. We have ordered from them several times and always been impressed by the quality of the food. We went last night to pick up some take-out and they accidentally missed one small dish in our order. They offered to prepare it for us right away but we had our children in the car so decided that we had enough food and headed home. Shortly after we arrived home and were eating our delicious kabob the owner called my husband and said that he was very sorry to have missed the dish and he insisted on driving another order out to us the next night. We refused several times but he just showed up at our home a few minutes ago with another full order of delicious food. We live in East Vancouver, over the bridge, so this was very out of the way for him to travel. We are so impressed by the outstanding service and the quality of the food. We will definitely be ordering from Saboo every time we have a craving for kabob :)

I recently dined at this restaurant, and my experience was quite disappointing. The food tasted so bad that my words cant explain it I just can say the food had a distinct unpleasant flavor, especially the meat, which seemed to have gone bad and had a rather bitter taste. Overall, not a satisfying culinary experience with any of the orders including pizza, meat sandwich and pasta.
