Moby Dick House of Kabob

I can’t believe that me picking up an order as a dasher WAS NOT ALLOWED TO USE RHE RESTROOM ! It should be changed to customers and people who work for the restaurant too! The cashier told me you’re not a “customer”!

If I was a blondie or a Latina , I’m sure the response would have been different! Such a biased place!

‏Jan 7th 2025, we went to Moby Dick restaurant in Washington, D.C. Don’t expect much from the interior design of the restaurant—it’s more of a takeout place than a sit-down restaurant. However, since we are traveling, we wanted to dine in at the restaurant. We ordered rice with lamb shank and koobideh kabob.
‏When they brought the food, the first shock for me was that instead of grilled tomatoes with the koobideh, they served it with lettuce salad and a piece of feta cheese on top. Everyone knows that koobideh kabob must be served with grilled tomatoes!
‏The plates were extremely small, making it hard to eat. As you can see in the attached photo, my husband tried to eat his food and ended up in this awkward situation. The yogurt and cucumber tasted good, but it wasn’t traditional yogurt and cucumber—it was something they had improvised.
‏The only positive point was the low cost of the meal, but honestly, given the service, they shouldn’t charge more anyway. I’ve also attached photos for reference. I was very dissatisfied and absolutely do not recommend this place.

I ordered online once, and when I arrived for pickup at the scheduled time, the food wasn’t ready, so I had to wait 20 minutes. The next time, I ordered online at 11:40 for a 4:30 pickup. While on my way to pick it up, I called to confirm that my order would be ready, only to be told they were out of the entrée I ordered—and they didn’t even notify me with a cancellation email or a call!

The kebab and rice here are amazing! If you love Iranian food or just want to try something different, this place is a must!

I am a delivery driver and I kindly asked a young man for the bathroom and he denied me, telling me that it was only for customers.

Good size portions but tasteless food. Naan is too thin, meat has no flavor and sauce is watered down.

We got a comb III, a kobide and a bareh with rice, fresh bread and a delicious yogurt. Portion was big. Both kebabs were good and delicious. Bread was fantastic, and yogurt was good.
We also got a kashk o bademjan, the taste was not good, I’m fan of kashk o bademjan and that was not my first time try this dish. It seems the kashk was not very fresh.
Serve was good, we arrived very late around 9pm and they got our order.

Had a sit in dinner. You see the menu and put the order at the desk and they’ll call out once it’s ready. Mainly plastic cutlery. Food is reasonably priced and tasted good. The aubergine side dish was pre-made and put in plastic boxes in the fridge and the rest of the food is freshly cooked including their pitta bread which i commend! Portions are huge compared to UK. Tasty kebob along with the pre-made dressing, salad and pilaf rice. The interior is spacious and has some beautiful Persian art. Restrooms are clean. They’ve outdoor seating as wel
