I would advise Never to eat here. We ordered the family mixed grilled platter. The meat and chicken were steamed and not grilled as stated on the menu. It tasted old and slimy/sticky. The rice had hair in it and we returned it back. The bread was old and stale, like reheated over again and not fresh. Overall the waitress was rude as she charged us for a soup that we returned that my son found gross and did not eat. She said he touched it so she had to charge us. We did not take any food to go as we left it all there as is fully loaded plates of food. The waitress said she would feed the employees the food that we left because it was a complete waste to toss away, which I could understand. The food was just completely off and not right. It has gone downhill from what I used to remember. Mind you I paid the full complete bill over $200. I paid for something I didn’t eat or like at all. Never again

Food was ok .. not much flavor…Service was not good. Server was not attentive. Our dishes were cold. Our dishes were not picked up when dessert was served. Atmosphere was just ok. It was super hot inside. The women’s bathroom was dirty. Smelled real bad ..

Amazing dining experience. Met the owner, such a great gentleman. Staff was super efficient and food was displayed and served to perfection. Would definitely recommend . I was so pleased I returned with a group the following evening
The kabobs are so so good. The portions were good and it came with Rice and a small cup of hummus with pickled onions grilled tomato and bread covering the whole plate.
Overall Thoughts: This is a popular Persian restaurant in Albany Park that was crowded even at 3pm on Sunday. You order at the counter and the food comes out quickly. The food was for the most part delicious with large portions, though some elements were a bit lacking in flavor. The prices were reasonable for the portions (~$25 pp for my group of 3). My favorite dish was the joujeh koubideh (chicken breast ground, seasoned, and charbroiled) and if I’m ever back, I’ll have to get more dishes with that, as well as try more of the bastani flavors.Food I tried:- Kash-Kebademjan (4.4/5): This was tasty! The smokey, roasted eggplant flavors were robust, and paired with the copious amounts of quality olive oil, was very savory. I wish the pita that came with it were warmed up / toasted though.- Lamb Shank Plate (4.1/5): The lamb shank was very tender and fell off the bone, but overall the stew itself was missing some flavor. The rice could’ve also been more flavorful. I liked the crispy texture of this pita, but it wasn’t very conducive to eating it with the rice/lamb.- Shrimp and Joujeh Koubideh Plate (4.7/5): Favorite item we ordered all because of the joujeh koubideh, which was SO good… literally some of the tastiest, juiciest chicken I’ve ever had. Highly recommend any dish containing the joujeh koubideh. Same critique around the rice and pita.- Saffron Bastani (4.4/5): A staple Persian dessert, I was glad to have tried this. The texture is similar to gelato and the flavor had strong floral notes.—Price (relative to peers): 4.4/5Food: 4.4/5Ambience: 4.5/5Service: N/AOverall Value: 4.5/5

Incredible kebabs! Probably some of the best that you are going to find in town. Portion sizes are generous as well. Will definitely be coming back!

So delicious food, service is great, clean and easy to find a parking
I ordered delivery from Noon O Kabab and was really impressed. The Noon O Two and Noon O Joujeh were delicious, and the hummus was perfectly creamy. The packaging was also great, keeping everything hot and tasty. The only letdown was the Persian salad—it just didn’t hit the mark for me. But overall, it was a fantastic meal, and I'd definitely order from them again!

We sat at the take out/self service section because we didn’t want to wait. It was very casual and comfortable and we love all the food we ordered!
