I noticed this place had mixed reviews, but I was 1/2 block away and hungry so I rolled the dice. What a great place! It seemed larger on the inside than outside. It was clean. I have to rave about the service. I read one review complaining that the food took 20 minutes, well, as I ordered the proprietor told me it's was going to take 20 mins...it took maybe 15. He was so polite, and helpful answering a few questions about their menu. I received great service. So, I said as long as their food is good, I would support this restaurant again. I read a review about how amazing the hummus was, so I ordered that and it didn't disappoint! It was creamy, rich and delicious! I'll have that again. I had a large order so I tried a few different things. Their gyro with the typical meat was delicious. The pita was grilled a little too much for my liking, but overall still very tasty. Also, my order included a side salad, and it was fresh. The mixed plate was the winna, winna! Grilled steak meat kabob and then ground lamb meat looked more like a sausage over a huge bed of basmati rice. This would serve 2 people, for sure. I will return. Lastly, for all the "nervous Nancys" still wearing mask, all their sauces are individually sealed and containerized. Their spicy tzatziki sauce is dope.

Not the most accommodating Branch but it’s all about the food. Plus, it’s in Georgetown Shopping District.

We tried it based on the menu. The food took 20 minutes from order to delivery but while I was waiting I was watching the staff. The use of sanitary practices was really limited especially by the one older man wearing a mask. He did everything wearing the same pair of gloves. Wrapping meat on a stick? Yep. Stepping outside holding the door handle in both hands? Check. Making the bread? Of course. Blowing his nose? Definitely. Same. Freaking. Gloves. I didn't mention this to the family. We ate and the food overall was fine. The Baklava was trash. And the bottom line, hygiene aside, was you're definitely paying for the privilege of eating in Georgetown. 4 bucks per can of soda. 6 for mushy baklava. Overall do not recommend.

Came here and had some very tasty food … I got the chicken pita wrap and my friend got the kebab plate. Both were very nice and well seasoned, lots of food on the kebab plate. Loved the side sauces.
My first time at Moby Dick's! We stopped by last Friday evening for a quick dinner in Georgetown. This location is on the smaller side with only a few tables, but fortunately, we were able to grab a table (seems like it's more of a take-out place). JOOJEH KABOB - 14.49 This is the chicken kabob and I got it with 1/2 rice and 1/2 salad. Even then, there was too much rice for me to finish. They give you a yogurt-cucumber sauce to enjoy your chicken and rice with. On the side, they give you a few pieces of pita bread, which were super chewy and fresh. This is definitely carb overload. Overall, it was a filling meal. I found the chicken to be a bit dry, but it was well-seasoned enough. The rice was seasoned and can be enjoyed on its own. HUMMUS - 5.49 This was so good, and they give you a whole piece of pita to go along with it. The hummus was so creamy and smooth, definitely one of the best I've had in the area. And again, the pita is worth raving about. So, so soft... yet, so, so chewy. Worth buying some hummus and taking it home to enjoy. Overall, good experience. I'd come back for the hummus and pita bread for sure.

Absolutely delicious food and amazing value! The beef was SO juicy and flavorful. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. 10/10 recommend!
Delicious food, beautiful presentation, affordable prices. Also get free baked goods and some sauces. First time eating Middle Eastern rice, the rice grains are longer, slimmer and lighter than Asian rice grains, quite delicious and refreshing. Friendly employee. Good space, good music.

SO GOOD EAT HERE 10/10. water was so good and the food was amazing. hummus was literally life changing. after eating here i feel like a changed person. tzatziki was so good too btw. only bad thing is i wanted more hummus. everything was cooked perfectly and didn’t have a bad bite of
The food here was phenomenal, the water was the best I've ever had!! So crisp and clear. We got the family platter 2 (feeds 5-6) and one entree for our party of six (the entree was for the hungry young man who wanted more). The food was very good, only thing is that the family platter may not feed fully a party of 6 if everyone is going to eat a lot. Otherwise, it was absolutely perfect, highly recommend! The hummus was our highlight!!Photos are from when everyone was pretty much done eating (we're bringing home leftovers to our other son who's lazy and didn't want to join the family meal).

First they got our order wrong. Then they served a horrible persian food. Koubideh was extremely raw and felt completely weird. The lamb was very firm and overcooked. The special (Ghormeh Sabzi) was also horrible and too oily. We threw out 80% of our food and left. Does not recommend at
