“One of the best restaurants I've been too. The portions are giant, the meal's are delicious, and anyone that isn't vegan, has never had as good food as Jimmy Jam's. The owner is very cordial, clean, and it was a pleasure to to eat your delicious food. Also. I love cooking as well, I've been vegan for 8 years, I would suggest incorporating Seitan(I've made roasts, steaks, and chiken', with the texture of the real thing) , Soycurls into your dishes, CHEAP, healthy, delicious and high protein. Also, seeing as how you're a business owner, Beehive Deli sales bulk vegan meats/cheeses made in house, which might be a of benefit to you. THANK YOU again, keep up the good work. I was the bald gringo that bought a double patty meal, of which was delicious as well as the Ginger Lemonade beverage and cookie :). Also, speaking of beverages, you might want to look into using Water Kefir Grains to make fizzy probiotics drinks, another CHEAP and healthy addition to your menu, only need 1 purchase of the grains, then your set for life.“

“A fantastic fusion of Turkish and Persian cuisine. I was in Atlanta for a week long trip and was looking for a Turkish restaurant the last day before flying out. I found Banu, it was not in the list of recommended Turkish restaurants that I got from local friends. One I had tried had ended up disappointing for me, so I wanted to give Banu a chance…I am so glad I did.
I tried lentil soup, dolma (yaprak sarmasi in Turkish), a bit of doner, rice, Soltani, and baklava.
Lentil soup was OK, very delicious but not extraordinary.
Yaprak sarmasi was one of finest examples that I tried in USA over my 20 years in the country. It was the vegetarian version (several other regional cuisines, including Turks, also cook a version with meat) with pine kernels, rice, onions and tomato paste. It was the first time I tried this dish with tomato paste, it was very balanced and unique, a fantastic derivative of this ages old dish, an outcome of Kiki, the owner chef of Banu.
My next items was Beef Soltani. Both the koobideh and chenjeh were amazing. Although these are Persian names of the items, the taste was closer to the Turkish derivatives, but also thanks to the magical touch of the chef, they were not overly hot, spicy, or greasy. They were also serves with vegetables and lavaj rather than safran rice as I am used to seeing in other Persian restaurants. You have to order safran rice separately but you really do not have to, especially if you are alone. It comes in a huge plate, like other Persian restaurants, and will be difficult to finish, but it is a very well cooked dish.
As I said, I also tried doner. Its taste is very good with modifications of Kiki. It is not exactly like the best you could find Turkey (and Kiki explained to me why) but one of the better ones I’ve tried in USA, and definitely light years ahead of the doner I tried in another very highly reviewed and recommended Turkish restaurant in Atlanta which I had tried a couple of days ago.
…and baklava, omg!!!! It is one of the best baklava I have tried in USA if not the best and it is at par with the best baklava you can try in Turkey, though I would likely prefer little more butter. Its crunchiness is at the right level, dough is opened as thin as it should be and it is filled with right amount of pistachios. I even asked if it baked in house or imported from somewhere (many Turkish restaurants import their baklava from Turkey or outsource to factories in New Jersey) and they said it is baked in house. Fantastic dessert!!!!
So, were there not any issues, yes of course. Nothing is perfect in life. When I escalated my issue to the chef-owner, Kiki, she just reacted with a big smile and a sincere apology, and offered me an additional serving of baklava and 2 bottles of Uludag gazoz (a Turkish brand of soda).
Verdict…a fabulous experience of Turkish and Persian cuisine as combined by talented touches of Kiki, the chef-owner of Banu.
I am looking forward to my next trip to Atlanta.“

“I first discovered this café through their catering service, and it immediately made a great impression. It was the most reasonably priced option I found, everything was freshly made, and the entire experience—from ordering to pickup—was smooth and pleasant.
Since then, I’ve visited many times, and it’s become one of my favorite cozy neighborhood spots. The sandwiches are consistently delicious and thoughtfully prepared, and the atmosphere is warm and inviting. The family who owns and runs the café is genuinely kind, attentive, and incredibly hard-working. Especially in this harsh economy, it’s clear they put their heart and effort into what they do and truly care about their customers and community.
This is a wonderful local café that deserves support. Highly recommend for both catering and everyday visits.“

“How have I made it so long in life without having this sandwich? It was like having Thanksgiving dinner on bread. Words cannot describe just how tasty this sandwich was. I cant wait to get it again. Do not wait until the holidays, go ahead and snag one today!“
“From the first step in everything looked soo clean and put together. Was pleasantly greeted by both team members. I ordered the Southwest Caesar Spinach Wrap it was sooo good really exceeded my expectations for a juicery, it’s usually bland but this was full of flavor and just the right amount of dressing and didn’t leave my food soggy and it was also Toasted. I’m still sitting in the parking lot and my wrap is gone but I still have my custom juice I ordered which is very delicious too as if I juiced myself at home. Think I found my new fresh healthy spot to eat at it’s soo hard to find here but glad I found them. If you are impatient or in a hurry please order ahead these things are made to order. Also FREEEEE PARKING IN THE BACK 👌🏾“

“Alif Cafe is a fast-casual restaurant serving made-to-order, delicious Bangladeshi and Halal cuisine. The restaurant is tucked in the corner of the Aloha shopping center (near Buford Hwy and Dresden Dr. intersection) and is easy to miss. The parking lot is small and a bit confusing. Once inside, the restaurant is cozy, simply-furnished and unassuming. The meal is actually served on plastic and paper plates. I ordered the Capli Kasas, Chicken Samosa, Mix (Gyro and Shawarma) Biryani, and Mango Lassi. My meal came out within an appropriate timeframe and I received good service. The Capli Kasas are delicious, breaded chicken patties. The breading, seasoning, spice were on point and I loved the chili sauce and cucumber yogurt sauce that accompanied it. The chicken samosa was also a highlight. The filling was very flavorful. The biryani was a combination of lamb and chicken. There is a vertical rotisserie in the kitchen with lamb roasting, so I knew the lamb would be delicious. The chicken was not as flavorful. Make sure to ask for extra hot sauce if you like heat. The portion size is large, and I am looking forward to the leftovers! The Mango Lassi was a refreshing way to end a comforting spicy meal. I will definitely return to try the other dishes, especially the lamb dishes.“

“I got the vegan alkaline brownies and OMG! It tasted like Heaven, I tell you...was FULL OF ENERGY after I ate it. Also, the address is listed incorrectly on Google it is 2903 RN Martin Street East Point GA. Overall, the dessert was healthy enough for my sick mother, not sugary but definitely not bland. Rich and gourmet flavors.
Vegetarian options: The entire menu is plant-based and vegan.“

“Salata is one of my favorite places to grab lunch. The service is always great and the food is always fresh and tasty. It's very nice to have a solid option for a healthy meal close to my office. If you get a tea tap drink, I highly recommend filling your cup almost full of sweet tea, then topping it with a little peach lemonade. :)“

“I dined in for Breakfast there. Great service. The gentlemen that is the cook took the order and made the breakfast. Nearly to perfection! I was greeted with a burst of energy. The Breakfast was hot. Well made. I ordered, had The Farmer's Scrambler, with Extra Cheese. The cheese was for the Grits. I was not disappointed. The order price was $12.51. The Breakfast was made quick. The staff was pleasant. Tables, dining areas are clean. The condiments that were requested were available and within reach. Thank you!“

“This is my favorite salata. I frequent the establishment as often as I can. I love the salad and the service. But I believe i have some responsibilities for the service i receive. They have an app, I had trouble navigating. One of the employees was gracious to get me into the app to receive credits and benefits.“

“We had such a great experience with Carly as our server. Absolutely fantastic service, good recommendations, reasonable prices with great food. We had the boneless wings and the chicken Philly. I loved the French fries with ranch. The chips and salsa were a little bland but ok. Would definitely visit here again and recommend to others for good bar food.“
