" While Maman Joon has potential, my experience was not great. The kebabs were overcooked and lacked the spices I expected from Persian cuisine. The service was decent but could be more attentive. Maybe it was just an off night but I wouldn't rush back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about Maman Joon! The kabobs were cooked perfectly, tender, and flavorful. The prices are reasonable considering the quality and portion sizes. The service was outstanding, and the ambiance made for a perfect evening with family. I will definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried the vegetarian options and they were delightful! The ghormeh sabzi stood out, filled with rich flavors. The staff was very accommodating with our dietary restrictions and made great recommendations. If you're in the mood for vegetarian Persian food, this is the place! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is a lovely spot! I loved the decor which added to the overall atmosphere. The staff was friendly and the service quick. I tried the rice dishes and was very satisfied with the flavors. A nice place for a cozy meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an average meal first time visiting Maman Joon. It was alright, but compared to other Persian restaurants, it felt less authentic. Service was okay, but I expected more. Might come back someday but not in a rush. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a great meal at Maman Joon! The vibrant flavors of the kebabs were matched only by the warmth of the staff. I highly recommend the eggplant dip as a starter! Worth every penny! " (*Curated Review*)
