   I brought my team here for holiday luncheon and was delighted by the entire experience. The atmosphere is casual but elegant , food is delicious, wait staff charming and knowledgeable about Persian food. Will definitely be on my repeat list. What a treasure in downtown Sacramento. Rivals Famous Kebob.

   The food and cocktails were super tasty. Our Server was very attentive and friendly. Enjoyed less the noisy atmosphere making it hard to talk and found the lighting too cafeteria bright—would prefer a more moody atmosphere.

   First time dining after learning about restaurant from a friend. It is very good! Food is fresh, full of flavor, very tasty, and meat tender and juicy. The ice cream is a surprise and so subtly flavored and creamy. Definitely will return and try other dishes.

   It’s a nice place to enjoy some Persian food in the area. We had the Lamb Shank dish as well as Chello Morg and Maydoon Chicken bowl and everyone was happy with their dish. Not so crazy about their dessert choices. The team is very friendly. The prices are very reasonable for these day. Overall rating I would give a 4 star.

   Reservation was for 7:00 PM on a Friday night. Parking is a challenge. We parked four blocks away, arriving at 7:10. Street parking is metered until 10:00 PM. Very popular, the restaurant was almost full and very loud. After a table was cleared we were seated with food menus and waited awhile for service. Requested a bar menu, ordered drinks and all arrived in short order. Soon dinner arrived. We were pleased with the quality of the food. My marinated lamb was excellent and I decided to order a glass of wine. Unfortunately, because of understaffing, I had difficulty getting the attention of our waiter. Finally, I was able to order a glass of shiraz, which didn't arrive until I once again caught the attention of our waiter explaining that I wanted the wine with my now almost completed meal. He said the bartender was very busy. He then delivered the wine for me to enjoy with my last lamb chop. Decent wine. Would have worked well earlier. Busy place, good food with a friendly staff, but overworked. staff.

   Wonderful food. Lovely service. Unusual cocktails. Decor is moderate. It is a clean well lighted place but loud. The could use some acoustic inserts in the ceiling to reduce the ambient noise. Parking is not easy in this neighborhood. Worth the trip!

    We had a party of 4 on Wednesday night for dinner. We were celebrating my friend’s birthday. The restaurant was busy when we walked it. Thankfully we had a reservation. We were seated right away. We ordered a bottle of wine. The server was friendly and she was pretty busy as she was also serving a larger party. For appetizers we had the Dip Trio and Dolmeh. For dinner, we ordered 2 lamb shank, chicken koobedah and sultani. The portions were large and everything tasted fresh and flavorful. Prices were very reasonable relative to the amount and quality of the food. I highly recommend Maydoon if you are looking for authentic Persian food without breaking the bank.
