- DDewiWashington, D.C. Area •4 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe had a wonderful dining experience and thoroughly enjoyed the unique flavors that Joon brings to the table. Every dish exceeded our expectations, especially the duck and lamb shoulder, which were absolutely outstanding. The mocktails, and cocktails desserts were equally impressive and provided the perfect complement to the meal. Highly recommended especially if you are a lamb lover! We look forward to returning!More infoJoon$$$$• Middle Eastern• Tysons•4.6

- DDavidGoldWashington, D.C. Area •47 reviews5.0Dined on May 23, 2026This was our first time at a Persian restaurant and we were thrilled with the experience. Everything, from start to finish, was exceptional. Can’t wait to go back again. And I don’t think I can recommend the marinated olives strongly enough. A flavor profile I’ve rarely had. All in all a wonderful night.More infoDarvish Kitchen$$$$• Persian• Washington•4.6
- BBeaGoldWashington, D.C. Area •75 reviews5.0Dined on May 10, 2026This is some of best Persian food we have had. This is just as good as homemade (my son-in-law is Persian.) We have been there several times including Mother's Day. Six of us gathered to enjoy a wonderful lunch. The owner and staff were very attentive and accommodating. We enjoyed the Kashk Bademjan(eggplant) and Mast O Khiar(yogurt and cucumber) for starters as well as the Wings prepared with pomegranate molasses. They were spectacular! We shared kabobs and Ghormeh Sabzi, a beef stew, and Fesenjoon a rich chicken stew. We ended with salmon and lamb shank. Each dish was served with the appropriate rice. Most of which we wound up taking home. We were too stuffed to order dessert, but the Baghlava and ice cream are both delicious. The prices are reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to try Persian food.More infoKookoo Restaurant and Lounge$$$$• Persian• Washington•4.3
