Finally got to try this spot!!! It's located inside of an international supermarket in Waldorf,…read morejust before you get to the Sam's Club. Parking is available right in front, but can be a bit tricky to maneuver coming in and out so be cautious. Staff were friendly and answered any questions I had about the menu. Four booth tables located inside where you can eat in if you wish. Chicken kebabs were grilled to perfection! I could definitely taste the yogurt marinade, which made them tender and juicy. Flavor was great, not salty or overpowering. It came with four kebabs, rice, and salad. Everything was fresh and perfect. It's a bit pricey, so if you're trying for the first time maybe try the lunch special (11am-3pm). They also have lots of milkshake options. I will be back to try them soon :)

Finally... and yes, I do mean finally, Maman Joon has arrived in Southern Maryland. As someone…read morewho's been a loyal fan of this cuisine for years, this is a big deal. Restaurants like Maman Joon and Moby Dick's specialize in Persian-style fare: flavorful chicken, lamb, salmon, and more, typically served with rice, salad, and warm bread. Simple, satisfying, and consistently delicious. I've frequented the Maman Joon location in Tysons for years. In fact, it's my go-to spot whenever I'm in that area. I've loved this cuisine for decades, it delivers bold flavor at a reasonable value, which is a hard combination to beat. That said, I'd be remiss if I didn't share one recurring frustration at the Tysons location. There's one young lady at the register who seems to prioritize dollars over customer care. For example, Maman Joon offers several sauces with their meals. I'm partial to the green (spicy) sauce and usually need a bit extra to fully enjoy my food. Despite exchanging the white (yogurt) sauce, she consistently tried to charge me for the additional green sauce. On one occasion, a senior gentleman (possibly the owner or manager) noticed and told her to simply give me the sauce. On another visit, I ordered the standard chicken, rice, and salad at noon and was charged the full dinner price. I paid without initially noticing, but when I saw the lunch pricing posted, I asked about the upcharge. Her response? "You didn't say you wanted the lunch menu." It was noon. To be clear, everyone else I've encountered there has been great, amazing, even. I've had many pleasant conversations with the gentleman about the upcoming Southern Maryland location. Unfortunately, my repeated interactions with her always left a bad taste in my mouth... no pun intended. Now, onto the long-awaited Waldorf location, situated on Route 301 beside the new World Food Supermarket (a review of that is coming soon). They share a small space just to the left of the supermarket, along with a relatively small parking lot that serves several neighboring businesses. While there are designated spaces, enforcement is practically nonexistent, so parking can be a bit of a challenge. Also, inside the area is cafe-style with just a few seating options. As for Maman Joon itself, the Waldorf location delivers the same great-tasting food at what appears to be the same value. On my first visit, I wasn't charged the lunch menu price for my order, but honestly, I was just happy they were finally local, so I let it slide. On my second visit, however, they were out of my beloved green sauce. The manager was extremely apologetic and assured me that it wouldn't happen again. He even offered us a couple of baklava samples, which were quite tasty. Still, for me, the green sauce is non-negotiable, it completes the meal. Had I known they were out before ordering, I likely would've chosen something else. All things considered, Southern Maryland now has its very own Maman Joon, and that alone is worth celebrating. Like any new location, there are a few wrinkles to iron out, but that's expected. The staff has been kind, welcoming, and accommodating on both visits so far. As a longtime fan of Persian cuisine, I couldn't be more excited. Recommendation Level: If you enjoy Persian cuisine or are simply looking to try something fresh and flavorful, you'll love this place. I'm giving Maman Joon Waldorf 4 stars for now, with full confidence they'll earn even more once they're fully up to speed.

While in Waldorf earlier today, we decided to stop by the recently opened Honeygrow location and…read moregive it a try. Overall, we had a very positive experience. The restaurant itself is modern and inviting. While a few of the tables and seating areas could have used a quick wipe-down, the restaurant was quite busy, so I'm sure it was challenging for the staff to keep up with the dining area during the rush. Because of that, we opted to sit outside, which ended up being a great choice. The outdoor seating area was pleasant and made for an enjoyable lunch. Since Honeygrow uses self-service kiosks for ordering, the service experience is a bit different than a traditional restaurant. We placed our order through the kiosk and waited for our names to be called. When our food was ready, we were surprised to find it packaged in to-go containers even though we had selected the dine-in option. The cashier was extremely apologetic and even offered to transfer our meals into dine-in bowls, but we decided not to bother. I will admit I was a little disappointed because I was looking forward to seeing the presentation of the stir-fry in the signature bowl. The cashier did give us a complimentary fountain drink as an apology which I thought was very kind. As for the food it was absolutely delicious. I created my own stir-fry with citrus garlic chicken, a variety of fresh vegetables, and spicy garlic sauce on the side. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and all of the flavors worked together perfectly. My husband ordered a similar stir-fry but chose tofu and the soy garlic sauce, and he enjoyed his meal just as much. Despite the small mix-up with the packaging, we were very impressed with the quality and freshness of the food. We would definitely return and try more menu items in the future. My only wish is that they would open a location closer to us in Woodbridge, VA!

It had no idea about Sublime's 1994 Skunk Records promo of 40 Oz to Freedom. It had no recollection of the epic festivals out on Redondo Beach. It never once said "stoked" or "gnarly". It refused to "post up" at the Ralph's and looked at me funny when I said "dank". It hadn't even seen all of the Fast and Furious movies. Yeah, this tortilla wasn't definitely NOT from California. Food still good though. A++++++ and two thumbs up.

I ordered the Blackened Chicken Caeser burrito that I used to get all the time. It was really disappointing. The burritos are huge...maybe too big to wrap the Tortilla around. The guy who made mine managed to poke his fingers through it, so that the minute I went to pick it up, it split in half and all the contents came out on the wrapper. Fortunately, they have forks. The chicken was hard and dry. There wasn't enough Caeser dressing or lettuce on it for it to resemble a Caeser salad...not like in the good ol' days. I'll try again...but at different location.

They also give customers a buzzer while they wait and to notify them when the food is ready. The chicken can cum with a spice rub ranging from none to reaper. I always want some seasoning but I would prefer not to die yet, so I opted for medium. This was a good choice for me. Some of the spice rubs off on your fingers which is not ideal, but it was good nevertheless. I got the #3 meal which consisted of one chicken strip, one chicken slider and a side of fries. The fries were nicely seasoned but the portion was on the small side. The Dave's sauce seems to be some morph between honey mustard and mayonnaise, and it was solid but. It necessarily special. The slaw they put on the slider was cool. I normally do not like coleslaw but theirs was on the mild side and that made it palatable. They generously provided 4 decent sized pickles and an extra slice of bread for carb lovers like me. And I must say, grab the napkins. They are a fun play on words from songs but replacing words like 'fly' and 'cry' with the word 'fry.' Cool beans!

One thing I love about Noodles and Company...my food will be hot every single time. First time…read moredining in. We ordered the Pad Thai and Chili Garlic Ramen. We originally came to use the 2 for 12 culinary classics special but ended up adding proteins, drinks, and garlic bread so with everything (two bowls with protein, two drinks, cheesy garlic bread), the total was a little over $30. I could've done without the protein in my bowl. In my opinion Noodles and Company is one of those places that tastes better with all the "fixins", so if you can add anything to elevate your bowl I highly suggest it. However, the proteins are pretty basic and don't seem to add much pizzazz to the dishes. My partner complained that the noodles were heavy and greasy, but mine were . Not your traditional pad Thai but pretty decent for a chain. I asked for no cilantro (yuck). The cheesy bread barely had any cheese on it, was a bit dry, and I didn't care for the flavor of it, so I probably won't order that again. Service was good and our food came out in about 10 minutes. There are plenty of booth seating and tables inside to sit and eat as well. Great for quick comfort food but don't expect anything too fancy.

I liked the simplicity of the chicken noodle soup. It was well seasoned and tasted good. I was less impressed with the pad Thai with chicken for protein. It had an odd flavor that I cannot place, but it must have been what they marinaded it with...I don't like the flavor. While the spicy Korean steak noodles had a similar flavor, the tenderness of the steak and the spicy complement helped to distract from whatever they put on the noodles that dampens the dishes.
