This Father’s Day, we invite you to gather around the table and celebrate properly.

At Doost & Amici, we have created a menu that brings together the bold, comforting flavours of Persia with the warmth and generosity of Italian dining. Think grilled meats, slow-cooked stews, fresh bread, and dishes designed to be shared.

 

Whether you are planning a relaxed lunch or a long, enjoyable dinner, our Father’s Day menu is all about good food, good wine, and time together.
