Good stuff. Good service. Stopped in for breakfast and coffee after Emory appt. Ambiance is great, staff's service was attentive and helpful. Food was yummy.

General Muir continues to exceed expectations. I recently satisfied a serious pastrami craving, and once again, they delivered perfection. The pastrami was incredibly flavorful, tender, and juicy, nestled perfectly between slices of impeccable bread. The touch of mustard was just right, and the pickle was simply delightful. General Muir has maintained its exceptional quality and consistency, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

We hoped for breakfast, and arrived to realize they stop serving at 10:30 am. We were already seated, and had to pivot our tastebuds. We decided on the Reuben, and a Pastrami/Matzoh soup combo. The Reuben was perfect, in every way. The pastrami was excellent! We discovered, we may be the only NON fans of matzoh ball soup. As the lunch crowd started to arrive, we could see the vibe transform from calm to bustling busy. The service was top notch, and we would return for just such!

Attractive restaurant with excellent service. We each got a reuben and split an order of poutine. We'd go back for the poutine but would probably order something other than another reuben. The reuben was good, but not great. The corned beef didn't have as much flavor as we would have liked. It's on the pricey side, so I was expecting more. The portions were fine and we both took home half a reuben.

First off, best deviled eggs I've ever had in my life. Staff is incredibly friendly and outgoing. I've had almost everything on the menu, but have to say either the Reuben or the Burger are the best. The burger tastes like in n out, but way.... way ... better.

My first visit to this famous dining place by the Emory University campus was back in 2019. I remember being super impressed by their cream cheese and smoked salmon bagel. I went back for another try in 2023 and the taste was just like I had remembered. Service was great as well and there are outdoor and indoor seats for dining in. It can be a bit boisterous depending on the day of the week.

This was my first time coming here and I decided to do so for breakfast. The parking is convenient and is validated if you park in the parking deck. Both the service and the interior is really nice! I didn't take any photos of the inside, but I'm sure someone else has posted something. I was seated really quickly and got my order in and food out pretty dang quick too. The only thing I'd say that I didn't like was the edges of the French toast was a bit too crispy for my liking which is why I gave the four star, but overall it was good! I'll come back again.

Went for a brunch. The interior is nice and the service is great. The sandwiches are a good choice.

I love a good Jewish deli breakfast and TGM is one of my, if not THE, favorite breakfast spots in Atlanta. Food is always on point. And the staff is courteous and professional. You can tell when a place is well-managed. Kudos to Nial, the manager on duty when I went today. He's awesome. I drive about 25 mins from downtown for breakfast when I'm in town and it's worth it.
I like the food and atmosphere but I want to comment on the wine price. To pay $13 to $16 for a 4ounce glass of wine is sort of insulting. Considering the mark up on alcohol it would be prudent to serve a standard 6oz glass, it would cost them so little and it would go a long way for their guests. If I go back in the evening again I will not be ordering wine!

We were staying at the Emory Conference Center nearby and came here for lunch before heading to the airport and it was really good. We had to wait a little while for a table, and it was pretty busy for a Tuesday during the day but it was worth the wait. The food was very good and the service was excellent. I had the turkey sandwich and everything my friends ordered looked great. The inside of the restaurant is really cute.

The choices on the menu were difficult to make everything sounded so good. We ended up getting the French toast which was terrific thick but light and perfect crusted pecans on the outside a definite must. The other choice was the General Muir original breakfast, the pastrami bacon is so delicious with a peppery edge, the latkes were perfectly cooked nice crispy edge although they are dropped on top of the sour cream and applesauce which was odd to me I would have rather had it on the side so I could decide how much I wanted I.nEach bite. The eggs were overcooked and rubbery. We also got the bagel which was average it could have been a lenders bagel from the grocery store nothing great. The staff was not very attentive and the restaurant itself was very dirty even bathroom Needed to be cleaned thoroughly!!

General Muir was a disappointment. I received a tuna melt without cheese and both recommended deserts were stale and overpriced. The service was sub par.
