"All of the kabobs are really good, especially the kubideh and chicken. Hummus is also some of the best!"

"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!"

A real treat. comfort food. The Kashk-e-bademjan is excellent and highly recommended, especially if you like eggplant."

"So delicious! So well packaged! I was so hungry and this hit the spot -- I'm so glad they're in Vienna -- the chicken and koubideh are excellent and the man was very nice and assured me that he left the masto khiyar white yogurt sauce -- loved it, thanks!"
"The food is ok, however the portions and value simply did not match the prices or the spirit of Persian hospitality the restaurant’s name suggests.
Would not order from here again.
Really disappointing portions, especially given the prices. Six small pieces of chicken cost almost $21, while another dish with five pieces of chicken plus an entire beef koobideh was $24. How does that pricing make sense?
The ghormeh sabzi was around $20 and also had very little meat. Across the meal, it felt like they were noticeably stingy with the protein while charging premium prices.
What made it especially disappointing is the name Maman Joon. A “Maman Joon” should evoke warmth, generosity, and Persian hospitality — the kind of meal where you’re worried you’ve been given too much food, not counting the pieces of meat on your plate."

"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."

"I ate at this place in person and it was great. Decided to get it delivered and it was not so great. Asked for no salad, but a couple extra white sauces (the green is too spicy for me) and got one which was watered down. Also got a salad. Then the food was bland. The rice didn't even have carrots in it. Also the Samosa were $10 for 4 small ones that were nothing special.

Rave Reviews
"Fish Kabob was tender and flaky and seasoned perfectly. Pairing it with the green-sauce was amazing. The only thing I didn't care for was how carb heavy it was. Instead of the large scoops of two different types of rice, I would have appreciated an option to add a different side (like the chickpeas) as a surcharge. I found myself done with the protein and still a mountain of rice left behind."
"My husband and I tried Kabob Express for the first time and absolutely loved it! The food was very flavorful and served with ample amount of rice. The bone in chicken kabob was very tasty. The chicken (boneless) and beef kabob was our favorite, very tender and full of flavor. The chick peas and spinach were really good too! Highly recommend!"

"The best Goat Kadahi I ever ate. Amazing. The quantity was so generous that I got the remaining curry to Seattle on a flight next day and my whole family had it."
"Lamb chop too dry, tasteless. Lamb kabobs, tasteless, too dry . Baklava very small, not worth the price. Salad too pale, no deep green leaves, very few pieces of tomatoes and cucumber, no onions. NO Any Meat Curry Dish $12.00 charged. Mango Lassi -deliciuos, but too small. Like the breads. Beans, tasteless. "

"Instructions for packing the Side salad separately were not followed and also the side salad was missing entirely in the order of the Qabili Palaw Uzbaki. Missing white sauces to put on top of the dish. Overall the Qabili Palaw Uzbaki was overly greasy, oily and lacking in flavor. The chickpeas were packaged in a clear plastic container for a HOT side which is not healthy or food safe. Please reconsider how this is packaged."

"The expectations were not as great as other times. The hamburger is anything but authentic, did not taste appetizing. The Aushak entry had 9 half filled dumplings. The aush was same as usual. I would recommend replacing the burger with something authentic and the kids side should be healthier, the fries were not good did not taste like potatoes... Thanks! "

"#6. Chicken Seekh Kabob was so taste but rice portion is small . It should be enough because the price we pay is pretty much expensive "
"Chicken Seekh Kabob - 1pc for $5 was little pricey.. expected atleast 2 pc .. but taste was ok.. not worth the price.
Chicken Haleem (Sat & Sun) the quantity was good taste was ok... not great but good .. $20 was too much as compared to other restaurant that offers between $12-16 are much more tastier and flavorful but this was just ok... not worth the price... expected more bold flavors but not for a $20 price.. too much.. but once spend is an experience to not order next time.
Fresh Bread - They were pretty soft... compared to any other restaurants .. naan and rotis.. this one was different.. I had ordered 2 ... but received 3 .. not sure why... (may be 1 complimentory with the seekh kabob)... but liked it.. soft well baked..undoubtedly good .. combined well with the Chicken Seekh Kabob and Chicken Haleem (Sat & Sun) .....
Rasmalai - Must Try !- It was the show stopper....
Very different... till date what i have received from other restaurant seemed similar to the packed ras malai that is available in most of the freezers in Indian grocery store..
But this ras malai seemed inhouse hand made.. fresh and delicate... the taste and flavors were unique and delicious.
Absolutely, 1 is not enough if you are a sweet lover...
$5.99 worth the price the taste and it was Awesome undoubtedly....🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶"

"Chicken,beef and lamb kebabs were excellent - tender and tasty. The best Afghan food we have had in the area. Five stars "
"First time ordering from this restaurant and wasn't sure what would be included. I did not need to order a naan on the side. One was included. The salmon was best thing which is great since it's what I was craving and it's hard to find another store that delivers salmon kabob. I didn't love the white sauce (maybe too thick with mayo or something?) and the green sauce was too spicy for me. The naan bread and portion sizes are large. I love the large size and separate packaging of the salad! I would absolutly order here again for the salmon and salad."

"Very mixed bag; weirdly it seemed like the items that were the hardest to prepare were better than the things that should have been basic. There wasn't nearly enough chicken for the price, and while it was flavorful it was also very dry and a bit burnt tasting. The "vegetables" were two wedges of onion and one of tomato. The pita bread was cardboard-like and inedible. But here's the good news: the salad was excellent, very fresh and redolent of red wine vinegar and herbs. The hummus was wonderful and obviously house made with good olive oil. The rice was warm and flavorful. The fries probably came out of the freezer but they were fried and seasoned well. I might order from here again but next time I'll try the falafel or the lamb instead of the chicken."
