Noon Cafe

We came here specifically for the veal tongue sandwich and it was very good! More than adequate volume on top of a well made and seasoned pulled tongue nestled inside a fresh baguette soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside. We tried two different pizzas on a return visit but we were not as impressed. Cafe was not crowded in the early evening and service was attentive. Plenty of tables and chairs for a comfortable dining environment.Go for the sandwiches.

Overall, food was fine, but the service was a little weird. I came in for lunch and we were told to choose a table to sit at. The person working the front was on their phone and didn't bring us any menus. We found menus scattered on other tables so we looked through those. We had to wave him down to order since we wanted to do the lunch special that was advertised on the chalk board inside, but not on the menus inside. The lunch specials advertised a drink being included, but the server didn't tell us what drinks we could get. We got up and had to ask them what we were allowed to take from the cooler. Our food took quite a bit of time, even though we were the only two people there. When we were ready to go, the person at the front was still on their phone, so we walked up to pay. The lunch special was a good price, but I wouldn't come back for other meals since the "full" prices for the items on the menu was surprisingly high for what we got.

Service - 2/5. The server/front cashier is nice, but it took more than 30 minutes to get food. Some people left because of the long wait. My boyfriend even said he would never come back here ever again, but his opinion changed after eating their food. This can be possibly resolved by hiring more people in the kitchen.Ambiance -3/5. It's a casual dining place. I'd give a better rating if they kept a place a bit cleaner. Our tables, chairs, and floor had grease stains and I almost slipped even though I was wearing tennis shoes.Food - 4/5. Chicken and koobideh were savory and cooked to the perfection.Price - 3.5/5. It's a bit over priced, but these over priced food became a norm now. The bill for 2 kebab (chicken & kubideh) plates came out to be $82 (after tax and tip) for lunch. Overall, we enjoyed our lunch here and would come back here again. We might call in to place our orders before we head out there though.

New ownership! Food is amazing. Can't wait to see more changes coming. No place like noon cafe in Kirkland.

Super cute cafe in Kirkland with some dishes I've never tried before! I have constant dreams about their breakfast tray!

I had a late afternoon sennin-so shiatsu session in Kirkland and was looking for something substantial for a late lunch/early dinner (4/23/23). Using my trusty Yelp app, I decided to seek out Noon Cafe located in Kirkland's Totem Lake area. I enjoy Persian cuisine, so I looked forward to seeing their spin with starters, sandwiches, and pizza. Noon Cafe was easy to locate using surface streets and proximate to I-405. Convenient and spacious shared parking lot at Totem Square, I found a spot right out front. First impression upon entering was clean, orderly, sleek with ample indoor seating. Their menu had a selection of nibbles like chips & cheese or fries, soups, salads, and a burger but you can tell their forte are with their pizza and sandwich selections. I veered from the Mortadella that originally caught my eye and wasn't as adventurous to try Zaboon (veal tongue) or Maghz (brain) separately or as a combo. I ended up ordering the Bandari sandwich to go ($15.90). This is served warm with sliced fried beef sausages, fried onions, parsley, pickles, and their special spicy sauce. I opted for that, but one can request cheese and/or mushrooms for an additional charge. After a brief wait, I was handed a fairly hefty takeout box from the friendly counter person. Omg, the tantalizing scents that was wafting from that box driving home to Shoreline! Once I arrived home and opened the box, I was amazed at the expertly wrapped, huge sandwich. Easily one sandwich could feed two or three people. It traveled well, unwrapped it, and dug in with that first bite. My Yelp tag line mentions dazzling flavors and wow did Noon Cafe deliver! All the contents held together and melded well. Fantastic! I shared this with The Homie and he too deemed the Bandari as tasty. I brought the leftovers the next day to work and surprisingly tasted even better. That combination of ingredients and what comprises their special spicy sauce really makes this unique, delicious find.Always satisfying to visit a spot for the first time and end up with an amazing, memorable experience. Noon Cafe - a worthy detour for delicious food with a Persian spin.

We went there for dinner on a Friday night. The restaurant was busy, but we easily found a table for our group.We ordered two sandwiches and the Persian pizza. It took about 15 min for the pizza to be ready, the sandwiches came out faster. The food was good overall, and my friends said that they tasted close to what you find in Iran, especially the pizza. Overall we enjoyed our experience.

We ordered a few things to go. The food was absolutely amazing and very flavorful - very middle eastern in flavors. My daughter had the veal tongue sandwich, which was delicious! The kabobs were fresh and the meat was sooo tender and juicy.Though we got the food to go, the server was really friendly and even made us the fries while we were waiting for the kabobs - they gave us a fair warning that kabobs would take 20 mins.Overall, i highly rate this place! The food is very authentic - i look forward to coming back here.

Amazing food but super slow service! I would have given it a five stars if we were not starving patiently for our order. I would not dine in again but probably go grocery shopping and place an online order!We ordered the Chicken Pizza, a great dough base, perfectly created pizza with delicious juicy chicken , mushroom and other ingredients on a tomato sauce base!The Soltani chicken was mix of juicy chicken kabab & the softest beef kabab i have ever had! it comes with rice, grilled tomatoes and lots of basil leaves. its like a whole basil plant without the roots. friendly staff, hopefully they hire more or find a way to speed up their kitchen!this restaurant is new & very neat! with plenty of parking options

For a reasonably priced Persian breakfast with good quality food, this is the ideal spot. We had a unique experience at the place, and the owner, Arsalan, is a wonderful person.
