Have been before and loved the food quality, took my partner here for a celebration and they were out of all but 1 entree and more than half of their shareables. They didn’t tell us anything about this before seating us, letting us order what we could of shareables as well as drinks that never arrived (saw them sit on the well) and then serving a whole dip without any pita bread and letting us just look at it without a way to eat it. Felt bad for the server who was clearly distracted by having to deliver bad news to every single table. We got the manager and told him we wanted to leave bc clearly they dont respect the customers enough to give a heads up on lower selection and bad service. Putting your profit - that’s clearly about to be out of business - over your customers is wild.
No wonder they’re going out of business. Used to love their food, now I’m not sure I can even trust their other businesses.

Our group of two vegans and one vegetarian had a fabulous dinner here! We chose to have a number of small plates to share rather than ordering entrees. There was so much delicious food - so many vegan options, my mouth waters just thinking of them. And it was so much fun as well! Highly recommended.

Went for the 1st time about 2 weeks ago and I really liked it. We only took the vegetarian dishes and all of them were good. We also had so delicious sweet treats.

Incredible meal, rough service. Had a reservation, ordered at first pass with the waiter and waited 25 min between courses. Would have drank more had we gotten service. I dont know if they were understaffed but paying almost $300 for dinner when the bathroom is out of toilet paper is wild.

“Mamnoon” ممنون is Persian for “thank you.” A more appropriate name for this restaurant might be “Kos-e-Gav” کص گاو which is a term used to admonish people for wasting their money. Yes, for the tiny amount of food you receive, it is delicious. Unfortunately, after our $106 meal of: four spoonfuls of appetizers, and one 5” length of koobideh, a tiny bowl of saffron rice, and two soft drinks we were still hungry so we had a burger next door ($13). Every Arabic, Persian, Lebenese restaurant I have eaten at are proud to bring out a dish overloaded with rice topped by skewers, or a plentitude of appetizers. This restaurant lacks the spirit of hospitality and true gratitude embodied my the many cultures represented on the menu.

AWFUL and RUDE server, small portion of food like a kids mene, and took a long time to be served!!! We payed 106 USD for some bytes of food! OMG, don't waste your money and time in this terrible restaurant.

One of the best Mediterranean/Middle Eastern food I had in Seattle. If I could, I would give them a Michelin star for the quality of the food.
The falafel and hummus were AMAZING!
We ate at Mamnoon yesterday and it was the best experience! The food was amazing, as well as the service and atmosphere. I really liked the ambience and the music. We highly recommend Mamnoon to everyone. You won't be disappointed!!
Service was quite slow - I clocked almost an hour between being seated and receiving my first drink order. Food came quickly once we ordered, and was very good.
However, portions are small and prices are high - budget at least $75/pp for an entree/app/drink per person. Mandatory 22% service fee combined with the rather inattentive service makes me unlikely to return.

We’ve been to Mamnoon twice now, and each time we had an amazing experience and meal. Colton was our server both times, and literally the best server I’ve ever had. So attentive and knowledgeable, also funny! We got the Baba ghanoush both times (amazing), cauliflower both times (so good), the fattoush both times (also delicious), and last time we had the roasted veggies- which kind of blew my mind. I love cuisine from this region, and Mamnoon is a new favorite of mine. ( We didn’t take photos because we were too busy eating!)
Just wanted to edit that our server last night, May 10, 2025 named Erica was absolutely wonderful! Thank you for delicious food, amazing service, and awesome music!
Fantastic food, great atmosphere (although at time it was too loud to hear people across the table as the restaurant filled up). Would go back for sure, especially for the sole and chicken main dishes and cauliflower share plate.
Average food with very high price point. The service was also okay. We had to wait for very long for even providing the order. They also charge 22% service fee no matter how many people are dining. Overall experience doesn’t do justice to the price.
Great experience!
As someone from Turkey, I was really craving some Mediterranean flavors—and this place delivered! You should definitely try their muhammara, it was so tasty. The service was also friendly and attentive. I’ll be coming back for sure!
Went here to celebrate our anniversary. There was a slight snafu with the reservation, however the staff was warm and accommodating with zero wait time. The food was amazing the service was excellent. Ordered the “spoil me” and wow. Lots of food and the flavors were delish!! Would come here again.
