Tochal Restaurant in Richmond Hill

I Ordered veal kebob, honestly the worst veal i had, no taste and smaller portion and the meat was not really veal, rather they replaced it with beef, also food arrived cold!!! Tochal was never like this a year ago! I am very disappointed and will never order again

Thank you for the delicious food, clean packaging and beautiful manners. be victorious

Afghan Kabob not Persian!

Ordered takeout via Uber eats. Kabob was way too salty. Big edible. They give you half a tray of rice with a slice of Tomato with one green chilli. What is the customer supposed to do with half a tray of dry rice? I guess order from here if you need lots of steamed and oily rice. No Naan, and a sad story for a salad accompanied half a swimming pool of rice. Is there a sale on rice going on? Like what s up with all the unnecessary rice ? How do I take a picture to show this excessive amount of rice so you know I m not exaggerating

Long time

Loved, loved loved the food. Great portions and good value. Really enjoyed our meal and had leftovers for next day as well

Always enjoy going to Tochal. Food is always delicious!

I had the lamb shank. It was amazing

Delicious with Iranian taste and Iranian atmosphere, friendly staff

I asked for more rice they put so little.I been there many times.

The food is pretty good especially considering the prices. If you re going there definitely try their special sauce that looks like a type of yogurt

Delicious food / great price

A fantastic dining experience! Delicious food, friendly staff, and a cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended

Awesome place to have so delicious food with reasonable prices

i would extremely recommend the dine in and also the chicken breast was extremely good(in this case i ordered it for a party )

I love this food is amazing

Great place. The people are nice. Service is great. Food is really good. Portions are amazing. Best Persian food in the area no doubt. Highly recommend it. Food is fresh and of great quality.

I had a fantastic dining experience at Tochal Resturant. The food was absolutely delicious full of authentic flavors. A big thanks to Shakiba, our server, who was incredibly attentive and friendly, making the evening even more enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone craving Persian food and great service!

Very bad rice , stinky ! I don t know if chef or restaurant trying their food at all !

The food quality was great. Salas was so fresh. We ordered fesenjoon and koobideh and were soooo satisfied with it. Well cooked and scrumptious. Highly recommend this place. The waitress, Rojina was so caring and attentive.

The service is very friendly. The food is good, meat is tender, and rice is perfect. However, the majority of people are not dining in but coming for take outs. Food : 5/5

Had the Kobideh Kebab here. These are very juicy and tasteful kebabs. Would definitely recommend to try!

Great spot for kabob, especially late night on the weekends. Simple space with good quality and great prices. Koobideh and jujeh were both excellent!

The food was tasty. We were too hungry. Didnt remember to take a picture until we finished all the food.

Quality zero, the order isnt completely,

I appreciate you guys making my order very fast.

I just came here for dinner and I always forget to leave a review. I live in Scarborough and I ll still drive here. One of my fav places to eat. Great portions, great prices.

Good food great price

Perfect customer service specially sarideh & behnaz, delicious food, fast service

i ordered 3 different plates and cost 100$ honestly the quality of the food was horrible and taste bad that was my first and last time ordering food from you guys. Food : 1/5

Its food are really good Especially koobideh kebab Food

I love their chicken kebab

This restaurant deserves 5 star in every aspect. High quality food, reasonable prices. Strongly suggested.

Excellent service. great and tasty food. Parking: At least 20 parking spaces Food : 5/5 |

Was looking for a authentic persian restaurant with great kebabs and they did not disappoint! Huge portion as well.

I asked the server for a straw, and I waited 10 minutes until I decided to get it myself. There was also no one there to help me get a takeout container for my food. The service was very poor. The food was not bad and it was hot. The environment was not bad. The seating arrangement wasn t comfortable either.

The best place ever I have experience with my family for dinner. The best delicious food. Food

Nice

delicious lentil soup and buttermilk friendly service and good portion Food : 5/5

Also order from this place it is amazing! Tasted very good and there are a good amount if options for kebabs. For anyone looking to eat good healthy and high protein halal meals come here for sure!

Best in Richmond Hill .

The service is good but the food is average. I would say the only positive side is their competitive prices, but in general, the food quality can be way improved. Aash (Ashe in their menu) is my only recommendation here.

Juicy kebab which gets ready in less than 5 minutes! What else do you need! Thanks for your great service

Great Persian food!! The staff was friendly and the music added to a great atmosphere. We ordered lamp shank and chicken salad course. We thoroughly liked the taste. Good work Chef!! Highly recommended.

Ordered take out! Have to say the food was so fresh and delicious! The barley soup was so unique and full of flavour!

Ordered Torsh kebab and got this, it s burnt and it s not what it s supposed to be and the taste is so bad I had to waste the whole thing.

The barg kebab hits all the right notes perfectly cooked, expertly marinated, and served with refreshing mast khiar and crisp salad. Its a culinary masterpiece that satisfies even at 1 am. Definitely a top pick for any hour!

Everything about this place was exceptional, highly recommended!

Been ordering from Tochal for years, they have exceptional quality food, excellent service!

Although the services and atmosphere were good, food quality and tastes were not acceptable. We ordered chicken breast and koobide.

Bought the family combo 2 from here for family that was at the hospital, and they loved it!! Incredible prices, incredible portions, amazing food.

What an amazing food!!!!! This was mind blowing good!!

I tried their food. To be honest, this restaurant has the best Iranian food I ve tried in the North America. Hopefully they open a new branch in Pennsylvania

Unfortunately they messed up my order so many times and Im done with this restaurant.

Bean pilaf tasted like water with minced meat!!!!! The ghee of Colon had 3 small pieces of meat and we had to find the potato with a magnifying glass!!!! Aluminum food containers and hot food to the extent that it burns the hand and is too sharp to tear the skin In short, it was my first and last purchase from them

Wish I could put 0 stars. Went inside for a takeout order. Paid for chicken dinner, sandwich, and two sides. When leaving the woman asked if wanted salad. Did I not pay for it??? Im under the impression it s supposed to come with the meal since it s in the picture. Why am I getting asked if I want something after I ordered and paid. Never had this happen at any other establishment. Coming home I noticed they forgot the rice so I called back and they didn t care. They kept passing the phone to 3 different people making me explain the same story. Asked me what do you want us to do about it? No apologies were given by any of the people after all the phone hand offs. A simply sorry would have made this situation better but apparently thats off the table too. No food is worth this. Never coming back.

This is my favorite persian restaurant in Richmond hill. Ive been a customer for 5+ years. The food is always fresh and delicious. The price is fair and they always give you big portions. The owner is a very good person along with the staff and they always give me amazing and friendly service. I usually order from Uber or Doordash. Yesterday I went to the restaurant in person for dine in and ordered lamb shank and rice and it was amazing. If you havent tried it I highly recommend you do.

We bought them on Saturday, the food was left and the meat was bruised and old

Stopped by for a late evening snack after a concert across the street and had the best lamb chop Ive ever eaten!

Food is always exceptional here. Great place to introduce someone to Persian cuisine.

This is a small restaurant with great staff. The food is reasonably priced, but the quality was great. It was 12 of us with kids, and they all loved it. We will be back

I ordered the Vaziri Kebab with Joojeh Leg Mix ( The name on their menu is wrong and it s mentioned as Salari , Salari means One Chenjeh and One Joojeh ) , Koobideh Kebab and The Joojeh Kebab were both cooked perfectly and Juicy ! The Chicken Leg was well marinated also ! As a Persian I can confirm they used good quality Rice and it tasted original , which is so important for any Persian dish that contains Rice ! They also sent a small Mast o Khiar and a small salad with the Main Dish !

We ordered our Persian favorite dish Kebab kubeiddeh and boy it was Yum! We had similar stuff only in Iran. Have seen good reviews at other restaurants and had only gotten disappointed. Also, the portions are huge. So we shared the dish. The staff is very friendly too. Parking could be an issue across Yonge Street during rush hours. So plan accordingly.

The food is great and very delicious. Would absolutely recommend!

The food quality and quantity have dropped. The rice was very dry. The kababs were quite good. Salad was promised but not provided. Dont know if this is a one off or has become a standard.

The ambiance at Tochal Restaurant is perfect for a relaxed dinner with friends or family.

From the first bite to the last, dining at Tochal Restaurant is always a pleasure.

Great food and service

Owner and staff very kindly behave with anybody at last Thank you so much . I highly recommend

amaizing food and hossein was extremely nice

Amazing food, impeccable service!

Got take out like usual from this place and we thought we would give it another chance cause surely they can t mess up four times now can they? Well we were wrong. Massive portion of rice with the tiniest amount of saffron (hopefully it s real saffron). Food wasn t the warmest but we ll let that go. The tomatoes that are supposed to be bbqd aren t, skin is still hard to take off cause it s not fully cooked. The zaytoon parvardeh is just some olives from a can in a mixed seasoning, first time I ve ever seen diced olives from a can served as zaytoon parvardeh. If only they cared to actually serve good food rather than trying to squeeze in as much profit as possible. Do the job right and people will come back.

Excellent food. But I ordered two family platters for TWO separate events but they sent me both orders with rice and salad in ONE package leaving me with more than $200 food order that I cannot use for any of the events. I called the place and the manager told me that everyone usually order several family platters and want all in one package!!! It still does not resolve my issue with so much food that I cannot separate into two separate packages; however, the answer of the manager was very customer oriented!!!

My favourite kebab restaurant

Kabab kubide kheili bu piaz midad va kohne bud joojeh kheili khosh bud bereg ali bud Soup mamuli Food

Kabab Koobideh is a flavor-packed delight! The perfectly grilled, spiced ground meat skewers offer a smoky and succulent experience. Each bite is a taste of authentic Middle Eastern goodness a must-try for grill enthusiasts! Thanks to the young lady on the phone for the recommendation. Long story short, meat that they use is the best quality that you dont feel the fullness afterwards.

Love this place. Good food, good price. Will be returning more often! Food : 5/5

Definitely coming here with my mom again. We ordered soup, Barg, and Salari. To all the bad reviews who ordered from Uber, I suggest going to the actual restaurant. The tables: Clean The seats: clean Decoration: Awesome Music: Banger Customer service: Awesome The rice: not bland 10/10 The beef 10/10 The chicken 10/10 The tomato 10/10 Soup 10/10 The food was so good and it was not too salty. The waiter was very nice and defined the foods my mom and I didnt know. At first I was like ok a reasonable price after, I was like wow. Vegetarian options: Salad Parking: The parking was right in front of the restaurant. Wheelchair accessibility: There are no steps

Surprisingly really liked their kebabs and rice , the place was almost empty eventhough we called in advance and the person on the phone said we might have to wait for a table, service was quick. The girl at the front seem a little inpatient for her shift to finish, but I dont blame her she is pretty young girl.

In a area full of Persian restaurants. This stands out like a gem for the quality and taste of food. Whatever the event is we order from here and introduce people to joys of home style cooked foods.

We went for hot bread and kebab and they served cold bread that was different from what we expected. The kebab was not very good quality

Stew was horrible. I cant believe how bad it was. Im not high maintenance on food, but I had to throw all of it out. This is how bad it was Food : 1/5

Koobideh Kabob is juicy and tastes good. Been here many times, sometimes food is great, a few times was okay. Service is good and the manager is a nice guy.

The food is amazing and reasonably priced.

A value for money choice if you are hungry! - Lots of parking spots in the plaza so don t worry at all! - Not a fancy place for a date or a formal business lunch but still a good place for casual meal - The atmosphere and decoration could use some renovation and remodelling - We ordered a Torsh Kabab with rice. Decent size Kabab with standard taste for people who love sour kabab. Would have been better if it was served with Persian rice. - Also ordered Dizi which was delicious in good portion. I would serve it with fresh bread and make it a little bit more colourful (similar to what they have in the food picture in their menu) I m still happy with the food that I got and the money that I paid and if you ask me if I will try it again my answer is YES, it s still a considerable choice for an affordable Persian food experience (Don t expect a fancy place with super tasty food,again think like a value for money experience)

I just order vaziri Brest from uber eats,that was not like always,too bad

I expected a lot more based on the excellent reviews I saw. The food was good, but it did not wow me. The lettuce in the salad was borderline already going pink. I paid for Naan, but it did not make it into my order . The service was good and welcoming. All in all, good, but not great, hence the 4 stars.

This is my second time ordering here. I love the food, the friendly owners and the prices a much lower than Heeva and other Persian restaurants in Richmond Hill. I would definitely keep ordering here.

Can t go wrong here. Have only done through delivery apps but they never miss. Their chicken leg kabab is my favourite in the area. We had planned a catering event with them and they were very helpful and accommodating. Unfortunately, we had to cancel but even then they were super understanding and helpful. Highly recommended! Update: finally ate here in person, food is even better fresh off the grill. And the staff are super friendly. Just left and already craving more!

In preparation for a big family lunch at my mom s home on Christmas Day I called on Christmas Eve to place and schedule my order for pick up at 11:30am. The team took my order smoothly and confirmed an 11:30am pick up was fine considering they open at 11:00am. Ultimately, the pick up experience was smooth and wonderful. They suggested ordering less salad and were right, I ll listen to them next time. The food was an absolute HIT! My brother-in-law even mentioned it was the best Persian food he ever had! We all loved it and it really made Christmas Day wonderful for my family. Thank you so much. Highly recommend!

If everybody wants to try a fresh meal by high quality 100% should try Tochal. Restaurant Food

The food is good. The price is reasonable and affordable. Salad can be better by the way. The portion of salad is a little small.

Its a mediocre class restaurant with ordinary foods.

Since October, ordered via doordash and pickup atleast 30 orders. From single, family and work orders...never been disappointed. At a point where i have to have the vaziri atleast once a week. 5 star all round.

Cooked with love, family owned restaurants are where the heart of Persian food can be food. Proud to feel properly represented.

the tase is awful and the quality is terrible

I am frequent guest of this place, there is normal cuisine. But every weekend the food is not tasty, meat or fish extremely burnt even if you ask to make medium cook - it doesn t help. I do not wanna come to this place on weekends anymore or maybe ever. On weekends horrible service and food. Please, do not go there if you wanna keep your day nice and tasty.

Food always comes out great

Great authentic persian food and great price. We drive 30 min just to go there. Food

The food here is really of excellent quality and the prices are very good and affordable, and I suggest you to try it and be sure that you will become a regular customer.

I tried many restaurants, but I really ate the best kebabs here and I always thank them for the quality, taste, price and cleanliness of their food.

The food was cold, today I ordered koubideh and Saltani meals, there was a tablespoon of saffron and barbari on the rice, no flavour, the meat and rice were dry and cold, there was no dressing on the Greek salad we ordered, we ordered zeytoon parvedei and they did not put it in the takeout bag. Ive been accustomed to enjoyingdelicious Persian food in my life, but this place does NOT offer it. I was on the fence about writing this review but the rude service from the man and the fact that they were only speaking in Farsi the whole time which is extremely rude turned me off completely.

I ve ordered online two times: Salari & Soltani (both includes Koobideh). Reasonably priced, really good kebabs with generous portions. Came with nice little salad and yogurt on the side. Three tips for improvement: - You gotta grill the pepper. - Fresh nan (bread) for kebab is essential. - You gotta grill the pepper.

Price takes 5 stars. Flavor takes 3.8

Very fair prices and good quality food We had baghali polo and a kabob platter and loved both Food

They give out their delivery in plastic bag with no security. And I specifically them asked to seal it tight for the Uber driver and my food came in cheap plastic bag with loose knot, almost as if it was opened mid way. If you had an experience with delivery driver went through your food this is not the place for you to order food from. Cheap cheapersons, never ordering from this place ever again.

I really enjoyed my meal here.

Very bad

Usually pick up kebabs from Tochal for myself but used them for a family event and they were amazing. Amazing price for high quality food. Highly recommend.

You are the best

Great restaurant Home Excellent food Mixed plate

Tasty and delicious meals

We had just the best lunch today. I can t say enough good things about it. Would rate over 5 star if I could.

The food got ready in 5 minutes, strangely. The quality of food was awful. Rice was sticky and starchy. The kebab had cartilage as you were chewing. Not only once, many times. We felt guilty eating it. All gone into garbage. Money and travel time waste. It was my first and last time.

Loved the Koobideh Kabab. The price was fair compared to everywhere else and the food amazing. Chicken breast kabab felt like a 13 b dar homemade version which was nice and nostalgic. Food : 5/5

The food was very delicious - cooked with care and skill. The young lady that served us was friendly but obviously was not happy to be there. The restaurant needed a better cleaning protocol. I really enjoyed the meal so I would probably come back to get takeout the next time.

Very good portion and quality for the take out. Quick preparation and tasty Very good experience would highly recommend as their beef and chicken kabab are seasoned really well and juicy. Meal comes with a small salad as well, which is a nice touch. Food : 5/5

Food was good ,but SERVICE not really good

I ordered a family platter from here over the weekend and really enjoyed it. The food, the price and the service were great. I ordered it online and it was placed through Ritual. It was convenient and I would recommend it! It is located right on Yonge and theres a small free parking lot in front of it.

So good

The best service I love it and I will order more from this restaurant Good-bless the owner and employees Food : 5/5

I love the food. It can t be better. The kababs are super good, tasting like back at home. Thank you for all the hard work and delicious food.

Love the quality food here! Rice could do better but still a 5 star for me. Great service btw.

Recommend Lamb shank

Food, service and atmosphere were okay. Little disappointed after reading all the reviews. There is no flavor in the food. It did not taste like Iranian food. The place I normally go in USA, has flavors in their meat and make it spicier if requested in grill. Also I was missing a tomato sauce that I was used to in Iranian restaurant. Overall for me this was average.

This restaurant offers great prices, good quality, and a kind Staff

We just had a large order placed with them for a dinner party over the weekend and the food was very good. Both Koobideh and Barg were exceptional and the Joojeh was delicious. The order was placed with the very pleasant Mr.Javid and all done in a timely manner. Highly recommended.

reasonable price; very friendly staff. Recommended!

Definitely recommend if you re looking for some Persian BBQ with good quality standards and very fair price.

Excellent food, great service, highly recommend dining in!

Delicious

Did a uber order so do not know much about the restaurant but the food was delicious. I usually am not fond of rice but the rice here has had me reordering it more than once already. The meat skewers are good as well, but the rice stole the show for me.

Very good quality food, Kabab and chicken kebabs Thank you very much Food

Parking: Very excelent service , friendly and nice server Food

Food were fresh and tasty. Nice dishes, you will find enough food in your plate. Dough and Mast Mousir were amazing too Food : 5/5

High recommend, very nice place

Everything about this restaurant is perfect. The food tastes amazing and the price is very good. Every time I have ordered from this place, my food is always hot and fresh.

I think i found my familys new persian place. Ordered the joojeh breast with rice and joojeh breast with naan at work. Absolutely amazing, i got the vaziri breast and vaziri leg for home and again just amazing. 5 stars for taste, portion, price. You have to try this restaurant

Delicious food , fresh and nice quality

Excellent! Recommend for family and friends for best food Parking: Public Food : 5/5 |

Awful customer service, Not recommended The customer service was exceptionally poor, with waitresses who displayed a complete lack of hospitality. Throughout the entire meal, they had bad attitude, no willingness to assist, and a distinct absence of care for the patrons.

Very delicious will definitely go back. Been back and once again very impressed. Everything is amazing Food

Loved my lamb chunk and enjoyed the music :)

Sooo good! You must check this place out! Cozy seating, price on point, tasty food

I was impressed by the promptness with which they served my meal, especially when they learned that I had been at the hospital and hadnt eaten for 16 hours. I left the restaurant feeling not only satisfied but also grateful for their thoughtful consideration.

This restaurant used to be better. Recently I bought a few times kebab and the taste was completely livre not beef. Horrible food also they charge you more specially with if you are not paying attention. Never go to this restaurant Food

I had ordered kobideh kebab, but unfortunately, the taste of the liver was prevalent instead of the intended taste of the meat. And the price was so high. Never go to this restaurant

I tried BBQ salmon a couple of months ago and since then, I have been a regular customer. The waitress is very friendly.

Parking: About a dozen spots Kid-friendliness: My child enjoyed the food! Food : 5/5 |

Among the best for Persian cuisine.

Great people great price and great food I really love this place I dont know what else I can ask for

One of the best Persian foods you can have in Toronto.. we enjoyed all your items .

I recently happened to go there for a business lunch with one of my dear old friends and colleagues. I truly found this restaurant a good and decent place with reasonable prices, neat place, warm and tranquil ambience, and attentive, kind, friendly and welcoming staff, especially a lady called Somaiyeh, I guess.

DIZI ( ABGHOOSHT ) is sooooooo delicious, Kebabs are always over your expectations, means just amazingly juicy & wonderful. I always recommend TOCHAL to my friends. This has been our KEBAB HOUSE for a long time. Try it, satisfaction guaranteed. Family place, clean, organized, sincere staff, especially MARYAM BANOO.

Great food

Food and service were great and reasonably priced.

- they could work on better food design - it was reasonable price - they could work better on restaurant decoration Food : 5/5

Presentation: was excellent Chicken breast: the amount was very good , taste was a little bit salty. Kobideh: It really needs some improvement. Also I found it was very salty and please do not add garlic to your Kobideh, it totally change the taste I wish you the best and success in your business. Thanks Sam

For the price you pay, the food is phenomenal, service is not bad, they give you what you need. Its pretty much a take out place with seats and you order it and grab it, sit down and eat it. The vibe is a greasy spoon, the ventilation is probably not at 100%, so its kind of cloudy and you smell like food when you come out, otherwise its amazing.
