After having enjoyed their authentic cuisine, I decided to cater from Molana I’m celebration of my husband’s birthday. Everything went smoothly and the staff did their best to accommodate my requests for the event. The food quantity was generous and guests boxed up some leftovers to enjoy later. Thank you!!

Food was good but I had better experience at other similar restaurants.

Not the best Persian food you can find in Boston area, but still delicious food. We didn’t like their Koobideh much, but Lamb Kebob and Barg were tasty.

Amazing Persian food. I was completely blown away despite coming in with a fairly good expectation to get good food. Decor and food fell in line with what I expected or would have imagined when entering. A bit of a wait for great food is completely worth it and portion sizes were generous and made up for the cost of dishes.

Don’t miss this little hidden gym if you are in the Boston area. Food is great, been coming to this place for the last few years and quality has always been great. I was never disappointed eating here.

We liked the restaurant as it feels Persian with the vibe and design. Food was nearly awesome as we’ve been to authentic restaurants in the Middle East for the past couple of years. The meats were cooked well according to our preference. Portions were adequate. Maybe need more veggies on the side. I could say customer service was great as the server checked us if we needed anything even if she was the only one there serving other customers. A must try for those craving Middle Eastern cuisine.

The best Koobideh I had in the Boston area so far but not happy with the rice. I asked them to make it well-cooked but it seemed a little raw to me. I ordered the Albaloo polo but it was so were and running. The rice with the other order, a veggie plate, was fine.

Molana was recommended to me as the best Iranian food in Boston, and I couldn’t agree more. I brought my 9th grade students here on a field trip to learn about the culture and we ate and learned so much. Everyone was so kind to the kids, especially Rose and the owner (who played us a special song on the tombak!). The restaurant is gorgeous and the food is absolutely delicious!!!!!

The restaurant is dirty… spider webs everywhere… the food looks good on the place but tastes very bad. It was actually disgusting. They added tip on the bill then told us that it is not acceptable that we didnt add any extra tip. Save your money. Dont go there. Too dirty and disgusting.

The absolute softest, molt delicious meat I remember ever having. We had chicken and beef dishes, I tried the beef first and thought it was unbeatable. The chicken was just as good. I look forward to coming back.
