Taboon Noon O Kabab: A Delicious Dive into Authentic Persian Cuisine

Absolutely fantastic Mediterranean food. Excellent spices. I love the yogurt drink. Freshly prepared and piping hot!

Nice, cozy place to taste the home cooked meals. You might not notice but the chef and the other staff working to make your order are women. Fantastic moms who cook authentic food. So satisfied by their food and services

I went with my son on his recommendation. It was pretty busy with one person in front and two ladies in kitchen and trying their best to meet the take out / drive through and dine in orders . We order Adna kabob plate , very healthy and big portion and good as any Mediterranean food . Would definitely recommend for Halal options .

The place is amazing. My husband and I stopped by just to try it and ordered the meat pie. It. Was. Delicious. Made fresh, incredible spices, the bread was perfection. All the next day we could not stop talking about how good it was. We went back for dinner. We are now in the process of working our way through the menu, and I have yet to find anything that is not delicious. Incredibly friendly people and fantastic service.

Holy smokes. So delicious. The koubideh is tremendous. Ordered the kashkeh bademjan, an eggplant dip, on a whim, and it was fantastic. The Taboon bread is fantastic dipped in any of their various sauces. Great stuff.

Had the Adana Kabab. It was excellent. Only issue was there was a small misunderstanding while ordering. It was easily fixed. I would definitely eat here again.

On a drive down to the beach for a short getaway, husband and I were looking for a spot to stop for dinner. I keep a running bookmark list of Birmingham restaurants and this one hit the all the requirements! We pulled off the highway into a small shopping center and found our way inside. The menu is moderately sized with lots of middle eastern favorites. I fancy myself somewhat familiar with the cuisine but I'm certainly happy to learn and try more; there were a few dishes available I wasn't familiar with and I enjoyed doing a light Google to educate myself. You order at the counter here. They seem to do a very brisk takeout business. There's seating inside and a few tables on the patio. We originally intended to eat inside but wound up moving because unfortunately something smelled really bad and wrong, almost like natural gas, inside the restaurant. I don't necessarily think this was their fault -- we noticed some workers doing something on the roof of the building, and all the food smelled as wonderful as you'd expect -- but we moved outside just to be safe. I wanted a chicken koobideh kabob instead of a regular chicken kabob (the difference seems to be koobideh is ground chicken and spices rather than a hunk of chicken), but through a somewhat confusing conversation with the employee, managed to figure out they didn't have any. So I wound up with a regular chicken kabob; husband got beef koobideh kabob; and we split an order of hummus. I say the conversation was confusing because neither employee spoke much English at all, such to the point that I had to use my even more-limited Spanish skills to realize they were saying "no tengo" to the chicken koobideh. They were very kind and apologetic and we eventually figured out how to move forward and help each other, but if you're looking for a detailed description of the food or anything, make sure you speak Spanish here, lol. I heard them very desperately trying to communicate what was spicy and what wasn't to a very confused group of folks as I left. That being said, they got our order right and it came out in a very reasonably time, especially considering the sheer volume of carryout they were cranking out. Our kebabs came with extra complementary taboon bread, which went great with our leftover hummus. The food is honestly worth 5 stars. It was delicious. The rice was fluffy and delicate, each kabob was bursting with flavor, the hummus was smooth and delicious, and the Shirazi salad (diced tomato and cucumber) was so refreshing! My chicken was incredible -- cooked absolutely perfectly, still juicy but with crispy parts, too. Despite a few roadblocks in atmosphere and communication, we very much enjoyed our visit here and would happily return. Give them a try if you like or are interested in experiencing Persian food.

Many times you can find good ethnic food in a small, out of the way place and this is a good example. Many dishes were the same as in most Middle Eastern restaurants while others were more specific. We both had grilled ground beef served with rice, pickles, onion, cucumber salad, grilled tomato, and bread. It was a large lunch portion, but we managed to nearly finish all that was on our plates. They also had dessert and breakfast items that looked good, but we were too full to try them. You place your order at the counter but it is brought to the table.
