“This restaurant is a gem in the Clarkston community! The service is excellent - always greeted with a smile day from day one. The food is delicious and you can tell great care went into preparing it. This is now my go to spot away from home (literally down the street)!“

“Really lovely experience! The service, ambiance, and food were all top notch. The cavatelli is delish, as is the white chocolate pistachio cheesecake. The only negative is parking is just street parking - if you go during off hours, parking is fine. When it’s busy, parking can be tricky. But major props to the team. With so many restaurants in town, I don’t repeat many, but I’ll go back here!“

“We were looking for a healthy breakfast place in the area and found the stellar reviews for Daily Chew and wanted to give it a try. Boy were we happy we did! The atmosphere is welcoming and friendly and the lovely outside seating area was exactly the vibe we wanted. We took Mark’s advice on what to order and the food was flavorful, unique and had our eyes wide! We will absolutely be back!“

“This place is awesome and the food is delicious. I was there a couple of months ago before a concert and went back tonight (going to another concert) and the staff remembered me! That’s customer service right there! Highly recommend this place“

“Place is a not pricey but the food is incredible. I had the ribeye and it was perfect. Highly recommend their Manhattan as they use Cynar instead of vermouth which gives it a unique flavor. Service was great and the servers were really nice. Highly recommend at least once.Kid-friendliness: I thought restaurant staff was really nice to our 4 month old daughter and did their best to make sure she was comfortable“

“A fantastic surprise. We stumbled into this delightful restaurant on accident and plan to return often. Homemade bread, traditional Turkish meals with fresh ingrediants and a very pleasing atmosphere. Staff was happy, welcoming, and efficient. I look forward to returning again and again.“

“I had the hummus, the lentil soup and grilled vegetables. I had been hoping for some vegan baba ghanoush, but the menu stated that it had yogurt in it. The hummus was much better than your average store bought hummus. It came with pita bread and a few olives, if it had included some cucumber slices and celery sticks it could probably be a meal in itself. The vegan items are not labeled on the menu, but the staff were friendly and answered questions.“

“Great dinner. Fantastic service. The chocolate date cake was A-MAZ-ING! One of the best tapas restaurants I have had in a while. A must return! Reasonably priced for the value. My mouth was having a party with all of the bursting flavors! Yummy!“

“Love this place. Been here maybe five times since coming to ATL in 2020. Would get here more, but I'm rarely downtown on a weekday, and this place isn't open on weekends. It's mainly to-go, couple tables outside with maybe 10 parking spots (recently paved). You used to order outside, but now you can order inside. They take cards, ApplePay, Wallet etc., but there's a $10 minimum for non-cash. Any combo will get you past that threshold. I've only ever gotten the lamb gyro with fries. Someday I'll try something else, but I like that gyro too much. Meaty, fresh vegetables and a sauce that's just right (not heavy or too runny). The Halal lamb is seared with almost a crust on the outside. Fresh and healthy and not greasy--I don't like those things, and I would not come here repeatedly if that was the case.“

“I love the food, service, ambiance and everything about this place. No non-sense. The food and hospitality speak for themselves, but the fact this place is always booming with familiar faces during lunch is a testament to Cafe Sababa. I'm sad it took me so long to discover this place, but this is a new weekly stop for me and it should be for you as well. The Lamb Sandwich and Shawarma Pocket are on another level!“

“I had dinner with three colleagues at 5:30 on a Wednesday. We sat inside by the window and enjoyed every single dish. We tried several dishes and loved each one. They offer non-alcohol and alcohol drinks and have an upstairs patio which looks over the small playground. The staff are super friendly and noticed that we were in deep conversation and didn’t bother us. I gave the perfect amount of service. I would go back here many many times.Dietary restrictions: They offer several gluten-free options in my friend with celiac really enjoyed the pizza“

“The falafel pita is an addiction waiting to happen. One of the best I've had. Was hoping for a great gyro as they are increasingly difficult to find in this area. Unfortunately the gyro is not up to par (meat is thin and not much there). Service is typically good but can be slow even when the place isn't busy.Vegetarian options: Lots to choose from.Parking: Food truck is surrounded by ample parking.“

“It was my first time and I got to say I really enjoyed it, the staff are friendly and the atmosphere is very welcoming. We took the ribs and chops and also tried the chicken wings and let me tell you the ribs were soft and cooked at perfect temperature. It was just amazing. They had a few side options to go with the mean like green beans and some eggplant stew which were nice. Best thing is it’s even halal so I’d totally recommend it. It is next to a masjid which I thought was nice.“

“Ordered takeout for lunch today and I was thoroughly impressed start to finish. The owner was very sweet and eagerly explained each side. I love their passion for authentic Greek/Mediterranean food. You can tell in the food - everything was extremely fresh, delicious and fast. Some of the best I’ve had. I’ll definitely be retuning!“

“I love this place every time I come here. The I get a salmon wrap, salmon is always cooked to perfection not too hard and so perfectly moist and soft. And I usually get it with the pesto wrap with the veggie wrap mixed this time I combined all three, and I got the harissa with the pesto in a veggie wrap. It was absolutely amazing definitely made with love and the veggies are sooo good. I always get a side of the basmati, rice, and a cucumber and tomato salad. I was going to take a picture, but then I ate all the food. It’s always so fast, but still made with Love and I like that I can still dine in and relax and work.“

“Maximos is wonderful! I've been a customer for nearly 20 years and have never been disappointed with my food or my service. Daniel and extended family are accommodating and polite each and every visit. I feel lucky to have stumbled upon this place. Food is consistently delicious and consistently great! As long as Maximo's is open, it will remain in my rotation! Thank you Maximo's! Keep doing what you've been doing for nearly 25 years!“

“The food was very good. The food was flavorful and served hot. We had 3 appetizers; the Kebbe stuffed with meat, Turkish Lahmajoun and the fried cauliflower with a tasty sauce. Our mains were the 10oz burger, schnitzel burger, schnitzel platter and Roasted Eggplant with tahina as well as 2 children's meals. The service was excellent. The ambiance was average. I would definitely eat at Nur kitchen again“

“Ummm! Best food ever! I would eat there every day if it wasn't so pricey for my budget. Can't wait to go back. The food is delicious. It was extraordinarily flavorful. Wow. The menu offers alot of choices. The decor is quaint. They used the GOAT theme and have pictures of the greatest in alot of arenas. The chairs and tables are varied. Service was excellent. The food came out fast. Parking was tight but free and available. On a busy street.. Roswell Rd. Don't miss out bc you will be surprised how goid the food is.“

“We had a great work event at Basils, which from the start accommodated our request by opening 30 minutes early. Upon arrival, all tables were set up, wine glasses prepared and a bartender ready to go. Appetizers were served shortly after guests arrived - fried ravioli, mushroom flatbread, and Caprese Crostini - all were excellent! The dinner was served shortly after, and even after the filling appetizers, much was consumed because it was simply delicious!! The vibes, the cozy environment and attentiveness were on point. I strongly recommend Basils for large parties or events! My guests want to do it again!Parking: The restaurant has a free valet serve, which makes going there very convenient.“

“I visited for the first time today. The food and service was absolutely amazing! I had the french toast and my friend had the crab toast. The ceiling in the bar area is breathtaking! I highly recommend this restaurant and definitely will be returning.“

“It's a 10/10 for me One of my family's favorite restaurant. The restaurant is very clean and comfortable. The food, very tasty and serving potions are neither to big or too little. and priced very fairly. Service is very timely and courteous. The music completes the ambience.“

“There’s no words to it when it’s good excellent clean food that’s organic that knows what you’re going into your body. I mean it’s just there’s no words to describe the good feeling that you have and spicy lamb meatballs ❤️❤️❤️.“

“The little restaurant is inside a market with Israeli goods. It feels like little Israel! There’s parking out front, but if there are no spots available, there’s more parking at the back of the building. I ordered with the cashier and when it was ready, my food was on the counter by the takeout window next to the cashier’s counter. There’s a small area with tables and chairs, plus a counter, for dining in. For the pastries, you get a styrofoam container or a paper bag, then use the tongs. You bring it to the cashier, show them what you got, and then pay.I got the Shawarma Platter ($19) with rice. It came with Israeli salad, hummus, and tahini. It was delicious, but I also tried the Shawarma Sandwich on pita ($16), and I thought that was even better.Every pastry I’ve had has been delicious. Highly recommend just trying them all! Not sure about individual prices, but I got 6 pastries and it came out to about $10-$11.Highly recommend! Can’t wait to go back!“

“Came here on a date with my sweetie and the ambience is delightful. We arrived almost right at the time they opened, which was a good thing because they filled up FAST! I highly recommend getting a reservation.We had the sweetest server who was attentive. And then the food came out. Oh my! We started with the cabbage wraps - I think I could just sit and eat those!! And then the salad came out, which was fresh and tasty. Then we had the main entrees- their steak is truly amazing, well flavored and oh, so well seasoned. We could tell that they definitely cook everything from scratch. Honestly, the best Persian food I've ever had.“

“The best place to visit,I called and booked the spot for 8 ppl for the iftar buffet.the 2 guys who were serving my family were so awesome, very professional, and they were waiting for us to arrive, which we were late. They didn't give the spot away. When we arrived, the food was running out, but Ameer and Jordan offered us new and fresh food. Love the atmosphere so relaxing food was so dam good.It's worth the drive from Augusta to Atlanta.“

“This place is amazing. Not only the best Turkish food in Atlanta, it is also the best restaurant in Virginia Highland. I normally get the mixed grill but today I got the beef tenderloin and Adana kebab. Both were perfect. I also highly recommend getting the mix of 3 spreads. My favorites are babaganoush, muhammara, and eggplant salad.“

“This restaurant is conveniently attached to the Hyatt Centric in Buckhead. I had the breakfast which included a variety of options for all diet types from fruit and yogurt to hearty entrees such as omletes and breakfast sandwiches, there is something for everyone. The food quality pairs well with the value. At the time of this review, average cost for an entree was $17 to $20. Breakfast runs from 6 to 11. The atmosphere is very peaceful and decadent. Has an almost Mediterranean vibe. Seats are positioned around a bar at the center. The wait staff is very responsive and friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. Overall a good restaurant but may be overshadowed by the plethora of restaurants a stones throw away from the hotel at Lenox squareVegetarian options: Fruit platterParking: If the mall is open, the parking is free and just across the hotel. If the mall is closed, parking is paid at the hotel which does include valet“

“Everything was perfect! Food at the restaurant was delicious, groceries were top-tier, a room to pray in, clean restrooms, everyone was so kind and welcoming. Highly highly recommend. Can’t wait to bring my whole family! Thank you!! ???Vegetarian options: Cheese pies, spinach pies, falafel, rice, hummus, pita bread, etc.Kid-friendliness: Very comfortable & spacious for children.“

“I've been eating at Athens Pizza since 1982. I keep going back because the food, the service and the atmosphere is outstanding. If you like great Greek food a comfortable atmosphere then this is the restaurant for you. The moussaka is to die for! “

“Love the Greek salad here and then getting 3 falafel on the side to put on top of the salad. The falafel sandwich "wrap" is also nice here for $8. If you show up between 12 and 1 be prepared to wait for about 15 minutes at least for a 1 person order because it is a popular lunch spot.Also, this place has the guilting you tip screen like so many establishments for take-out orders nowadays.“

“My friends and I enjoyed eating at Dijla and had a very nice experience there. The atmosphere was very nice and I highly recommend people to go and enjoy the nice music and belly dancer that performs on particular nights. The staff was very friendly and nice especially Zahra. She was very welcoming and the costumer service she provided was amazing. Khadija Hamadon.“

“Cheers to the manager who went above and beyond for me last night dropping off rice and baklava because I was not happy with the food delivery. After talking to this manager this is what he did along with explaining the portions plus the error on my end. You've restored my faith in customer service and next time we will dine in for the full experience. Thanks again “

“Great Gyros and Platters. I prefer the Chicken Beef platter. Everything is good and filling for the price. The whits sauce they use is SO FRIGGIN GOOD!! THE RICE IS AWESOME!! Hell, I could order just the rice and Id be good. Just need to work on their Greek Sauce for the salad. The Greek sauce doesn't really have much flavor but that could just be me. I have already ordered 3 times from here and love the food. Can't wait to try the rest of the menu.“

“I tried the restaurant inside the Tip Top Market after a suggestion from Next Door. I pass by almost everyday on my way to one of my offices and did not call my attention. I went for lunch and took some pictures so you have an idea of how it looks inside.At the end of the market is the restaurant with tables of different sizes. They bring you three small plates at the beginning while you wait for your food. I took a picture of them.I ordered the Moustaffa that is eggplant with ground beef. It came with rice and a salad. My intention was to take a picture of my food before I started but I forgot. I took it midway. Next time I would do.They ran out of desserts. I would be back and try other menu items.“

“I enjoyed my visit and food. However, there was no public restroom. Also I did find a bone left in the chicken noodle entre I ordered but I understand that happens sometimes. Atleast everything was fully cooked. Food was served promptly enough... servers were friendly, and accommodated well. Overall, I would recommend it's a lovely place for a small family gathering.“

“Food was good and the waitress was really good. She even tried to get me some pita bread to dip in the olive oil and sauce from the dish since they were out of their usual. However, the chef said in a nasty and aggressive manner (i was seating close to the kitchen area) that they weren't going to take anymore orders and could not spare any pita pieces. The waitress came to my table and said she couldn't bring me any because the kitchen was closed. The biggest disappointment came from the fact that it was 8:45 and the restaurant closes at 9pm. I just don't think that chef cares about the patrons. I recommend retraining or replacing.“

“Halal Guys is a late-night gem! Their chicken, gyros, and falafel platters are a great options, satisfying cravings even in the wee hours. The fact that they're open until 3 am on Fridays and Saturdays is a game-changer. I like to order a platter. It comes with your choice of protein, rice, lettuce tomatoes and then you can add onion, green peppers, jalapeños, white sauce and hot sauce. Each bite is a burst of flavor, making it the perfect spot for a tasty, late-night feast. Try the hot sauce with caution! A must-try for those looking for a delicious and convenient dining option during late hours! It's a better option than McDonalds and Taco Bell when you're still hungry but don't want fast food.“

“The person taking my husband's order was super nice. He gave us a taste test because it was our first time. And even brought the food out to the car because hubby didn't want to leave me sitting in the car long by myself. I'll leave the food review “

“10/10 highly recommend! We're visiting from Texas and was able to get right in with our family of 11. Family friendly atmosphere with AMAZING food. Our waitress made us feel right at home and was very accommodating. Haven't had pizza this good since we were visiting New York. My husband(from Brooklyn) completely agrees. Do yourself a favor and order the Mixed Pide and Iskembe!!“

“There are not enough stars to give this place. The food was absolutely amazing. There were no complaints about any of the dishes we tried. I would highly recommend all of them. On top of that the staff was outstanding. They were top notch. The prices were also very good and their baklava was homemade and superb.“

“wasn't sure what to expect, but so glad I stumbled on this gem in Buckhead. the food was super, spinakopita was A+ and the lamb was too. service was just OK, a little understaffed I think, but the food quality , presentation, and portions more than made up for it. I definitely noticed this is a locals fav for dinner and I get it.“

“I’ve eaten here a few times it’s always a noticeable difference when Musa is in she makes sure to greet everyone and thank them for coming in.. great personality, great upseller as well always talks me into getting more than I came for lol.“

“We enjoyed some fast-casual Greek food at Grecian Gyro-Tucker. My husband both ordered the Gyro Wraps which were fresh and yummy. Leyla & Alex were friendly and happy to serve us!  we chose to dine in but you can can also get to go at the counter OR order ahead online on their website and have it ready to grab-N-go. We are lucky to have a location here in Tucker! #OnceAWeekGoGreek“

“Beautiful atmosphere!!!The drinks are great. I had the Pink Smash. Sweet and strong how I like it. The food was pretty good. The roasted potatoes could have been a little better.Our server was a little too sarcastic and passive-aggressive. Her tone was a little nasty. Customer service is not her strong suit. Hate I don't have her name. Other than that, a lot of women complained about the floors being very sleek. I saw 2 women fall during our birthday dinner.Also, be prepared to provide your ID at the door and ladies, your bags will get checked thoroughly. The bouncer literally had me open my tiny med/pill case. SMH!Parking is $20 valet or self.Over all, this can be a great place for friends to hang out. Just prepare first.Parking: $20 valet$20 self parking“

“Stopped in after a movie at Landmark Cinemas. The atmosphere and decor is cozy and welcoming. I could see this little place filled with local residence as the menu is varied and reasonably priced. I ordered the salmon pasta with chorizo. Initially, I thought the dish needed salt, but once I had piece of the shaved (not ground) chorizo, I found it perfect. My buddy ordered mussels and was served a ridiculous portion. It literally could have served three people. After sampling a few I agreed that they were very good. Overall, we enjoyed or meal, the setting and service. We'll be back.“

“I believe I know my Medertanian food very well and I must tell you all..... Ali Baba is da bomb! Lol..... I got the Lamb Gyro combo with Medertanian pasta/ feta cheese & Greek salad! I got all of this for $16.00 plus tax. Chef Ahmet and Manager Jojo made a killer lunch for myself and had to get a box to take half of it home. Mmmmm- yummy!“

“Place is great unfortunately I will never be coming back. I ate a nice meal and a man watched me walk off the premises for about 10 minutes in a blue sedan. I then got back and was ticketed despite eating a full meal at this restaurant. He proceeded to be incredibly rude and insulting when I asked him why he had booted me. That’s likely why the entire center has such rapid turnover. If I were the owner of the shops I would make absolutely certain not to scare away good customers. If he had waited 8-10 minutes before booting my car and extorting me, this would not have happened.“
