Maydoon is a midtown Sacramento culinary treasure of modern Persian cuisine. Its cozy yet charming atmosphere makes it a perfect choice for a date night out or with friends or family. I have experienced and thoroughly enjoyed dinner and lunch here. From the lovely special cocktails to the exceptional food, you will not be disappointed-you might even want to dine here regularly (I’m hooked). From the amazing Babaganoush to the koobideh and kabobs.; the modern take on specialty bowls designed to entertain your tastebuds, then the amazing green chutney (which they bottle and you can purchase to take home). You will be greeted kindly and fed well. Remember to make a reservation as it gets busy. Highly recommend.

Great atmosphere. Very lively. Staff was super friendly and food was absolutely fantastic. I ordered Maydoon Salad with shredded lamb.. Prices were typical, nothing crqzy. it was amazing. Keep up the good work.

Maydoon is one of those spots that makes downtown dining feel easy and exciting. The vibe is modern and warm, music at a happy hum, and the energy from the street spills right in. We started with mast-o-musir and warm pita, and it set the tone perfectly, creamy yogurt with that gentle shallot bite. From there the Sultani arrived glistening from the grill, juicy and well seasoned with that smoky char I love, paired with fluffy saffron rice and a roasted tomato that actually tastes like summer. The chicken breast with a side salad surprised me in the best way, tender and lemony with crisp greens and a bright house dressing. And the lamb shank was the showstopper, fall-off-the-bone in a rich tomato and turmeric broth that soaked into the rice just right. Service was kind and attentive, and the pacing let us linger without ever waiting on a thing. Delicious food, cool location, and a place I’d happily come back to for another round of that lamb shank and mast-o-musir.

Never disappoints! Consistent great quality and taste, and definitely one of the best Iranian restaurants in the area. The dishes are not necessarily made in an authentic traditional way, but taste great anyways. I really love the Meydoon bowl here!

Highly recommend this place. Food is outstanding. Service is super friendly. Anytime we're in SacTown, this is a must "Stop here" on our things to do. Took my mother here a few times and it immediately became her fave restaurant. The servings are generous so she mostly enjoyed taking her leftovers home. The food is consistently d-lish, which makes me happy and is absolutely high on my list.
