What started as a dream to provide real, nourishing Persian food to the DC area has turned into a true success story, and we are grateful for your help!
We take delight in preparing traditional Persia…
Flavorful, fresh, & plentiful - this spread was everything I was looking for and more. The chicken and beef were both juicy (even coming from all the way across town!), the veggies & tomatoes were both fresh and perfectly flavored (not too much, you could really taste them), and the okra & eggplant stew is maybe my new favorite thing. Bright and lively, just brilliant.

Supreme #1: Beef was horrible, flavorless and dry, but chicken was good. Chicken Kabob was good. Hummus and Turnip Pickle were excellent

The size of the Kashk O Bademjan is misrepresented in the restaurant's photos - it is much smaller.
The Mediterranean Platter combines the hot falafel with the cold salad so the salad is soft and wilted by the time it gets to you. The falafel was raw on the inside and grapeleaves taste like the come from a can.
The Basmati Rice was okay - a little over cooked.

Combo #1 never lets me down, perfect portion for the price. The white sauce to the side makes it but it's juicy and flavorful even without it. Do yourself a favor and try the cannellini bean salad too, simple but delicious!!

Second time ordering Maman Joon. Super delicious. Ive had the chicken, ground chicken, and Koobideh. Hard to decide which is best but always want that chicken. You gotta order the green chutney extra and I had to call to get Sumac. Im accustomed to these being routine is my only gripe. With those I honestly feel they are better than Moby Dick! I got the okra stew and just didnt care for the cinnamon. Im sure it's a great example of the dish... just not my thing. Can't wait to try the entrees.
