Some of the best Persian food I’ve ever had. My husband and I had the tadeeg, shirin polo, and kubideh and it was all incredible. Even the chai and ice cream were amazing. It’s a bit of a trip for us, but we’ll be back.

Molana Restaurant took over what was Hafez (now closed)...
Our experience was awful. Incredibly rude staff and the food was terrible. The koobideh had a strange alkaline taste. The kitchen and bathroom were filthy.

Fantastic Persian food. Most authentic Persian cuisine in the Boston area hands down. Big portions for reasonable prices.
My family and I came here and we did not have the greatest experience. The food was lack luster as we ordered plates of rice and kebabs. The food was not out of this world as I was able to finish it but there was nothing unique about the food itself in how it tasted.
The service was not the greatest as we were trying to get as little as our water cups filled when they stayed empty for over half an hour. It would be great if the server was able to interact with us more and make the experience a fun time.

Amazing food , everything was fresh and delicious. My only complaint is that their lunch menu is from 12-3pm ... we walked in at 3 pm. on the dot . No one else was there, and they wouldn't honor it even after spending $100 between two people .

This is literally the best Persian restaurant in the "Greater Boston" area in Watertown, MA! Definitely an unforgettable experience the owners are incredibly friendly I'm very close with both of them they are welcoming. The service is in a timely manner it's done in a great way. The atmosphere is dimly lit and cozy with authentic art pieces hung on the walls directly from Iran. It almost feels like you're stepping into Iran but in a restaurant for an evening or whenever you choose to eat. The prices are reasonable and the food is a definite wonder because once you try the food you can't stop coming back I personally come back to this restaurant probably four times a week every week just because the food's delicious, service is awesome, and the owners and servers are super friendly! I bring everyone that I know to this restaurant as my go to place for eating out whether that's for lunch or for dinner. Each person or people here they can't stop coming back and they always want another meal at Molana Restaurant. Not to mention I referred many people here and they all love the food here. A definite go to restaurant choice at the top of any food lover's list! I highly definitely recommend this place for anyone who's doing either, dine-in, take-out, or delivery!

The best Persian food.
The reason I give 4 is because needs attention on the bathroom, needs cleaning, renovation. Very poor.
Owner Please pay attention on this detail.

Molana restaurant boasts exceptional delivery services, which I recently utilized for two family gathering parties. On both occasions, I opted for their menu due to the delectable food and timely delivery, impressing my guests who inquired about the restaurant's location.

Placed an order for delivery - the beef barg was tasteless, poorly cooked and mostly gray. For the price the portion of meat was small, the only side included was a poorly roasted tomato. no bread, no other vegetable. Highly disappointed.
