About Baba Joon Persian Grill Restaurant Surfers Paradise

Coast regulars steer hungry crews toward Baba Joon whenever serious appetite strikes in Surfers Paradise. The draw is proper Persian comfort—charred skewers, herb-rich Ghormeh Sabzi, and plates piled high enough to feed a crowd. The seasoned pick: tender lamb shank braised in turmeric and saffron broth, paired with light basmati and a crisp beetroot salad that cuts right through the rich meat. Big family gatherings get easy care, too; staff shift seating for airflow, drop everyone’s meals simultaneously, and divide the final tab without hassle. Diners can bring their own wine to uncork beside the spread.

  • Authentic Persian Feasts: Generous platters pair char-grilled skewers and slow-braised lamb shank with fluffy saffron rice and crisp beetroot salad.
  • Effortless Group Dining: Floor staff easily accommodate large family gatherings, synchronizing meal deliveries and smoothly handling itemized split bills.
  • BYO Wine Friendly: Guests can bring their own bottles of wine to pair alongside hearty stews and flame-grilled meats.

  • Lamb Shank

    Lamb Shank - it is tender, with mild spiced broth (a dash of saffron, turmeric, onion, garlic perhaps?). Importantly the lamb retained its moisture.
