"We catered food for 40 people from Amoo’s Restaurant, and it was outstanding! The chicken kebab, tender lamb, and world-class koobideh came in neatly packed trays — fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. Amoo’s is on another level. Family-owned, over 27 years in business, and truly the best Persian food around. Highly recommended!"
"Amazing Persian Cuisine at Amoo’s Restaurant Amoo’s Restaurant is hands-down the best Persian food in Northern Virginia and the Washington, D.C. area! I recently ordered a large family carry-out, and everything was packed in generous, family-style containers. The chicken, lamb, and ground beef were all perfectly tender—each bite practically melted in my mouth. My entire family loved it, and our friends who were visiting couldn’t stop raving about the flavors. Thanks to this wonderful experience, I’m confident they’ll be regulars at Amoo’s from now on. Highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic Persian cuisine!"

"I have ordered the Chop Chop Basil over the years. The portion has gotten smaller, but it is in line with neighboring Thai restaurants. The dish does not smell great, but it tastes great. Plus, you dont have to pay extra for an egg."
"I am kinda disappointed of this place. Before ordering, I read the reviews and looked at previous photos, where the portions seemed much more generous, especially the Chop Chop Basil. I ordered the Chop Chop Basil with an additional portion of rice and an extra fried egg, hoping to split it into two meals. Based on previous customer photos, I expected the meat to fill the entire black container, with the rice and egg that come with the dish packed separately. However, the portion I received was clearly much smaller—less than half of what was shown in some of the previous reviews. The flavor It self was very good, just a little too salty, but mixing it with the Jasmine Rice balances it off. I also ordered the tom kha Tom KHA Soup, which is one of my favorite Thai soups, but unfortunately it was quite watery and not as flavorful as I expected. Overall, I wouldn’t say the food was bad, especially for the price, but between the smaller portions and the lack of flavor in the soup, I probably wouldn’t order from this place again.."

"10/10 .Everything was perfect, the food was fresh and delicious. The best Koobideh Kabob in Virginia and the Kashk-E-Bademjan is perfection. Definitely goi to or again. "
"We ordered the lamb shank and the chenjej kabob with salads. The typical salad was great but the Shirazi salad was just chopped tomatoes and cucumber with no seasoning, no olive oil. The lamb shank was very small and mostly fat, again no seasoning. Sadly, the Chenjeh kabob was so overcooked and dry with no seasoning, I don't think even salt. It came in a big container with 8 small scattered pieces of meat- looked a bit sad. We had eaten at Alborz in probably 2013 and enjoyed it, not so much now. We are fans of Persian food. I don't know what went wrong tonight but would never order again, unfortunately."

Timeframe packaging was cute if I knew what I knew now would've got the large size tots and a double sandwich lol have fun or whoever tries this place out is definitely worth it."
