“1/21//23. Date night. First time here. Beautiful decor and awesome music. I ordered chicken kabobs with Basmati rice. Hubby ordered beef and chicken kabobs with rice. It was so fresh And well seasoned. Finished with homemade saffron and cardamom ice cream. Must try .“
“I recently dined at Mazaj, and I must say it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The ambiance was charming, with cozy lighting and tasteful decor that set a relaxed yet elegant tone. The service was impeccable; the staff was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu.As for the food, every dish we tried was a culinary delight. The ingredients were fresh, and the flavors were well-balanced, showcasing the chef's expertise. I particularly enjoyed the Mix grill, which was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented.The dessert menu was equally impressive, and we couldn't resist trying the Kunafe, which was the perfect sweet ending to our meal.Overall, I highly recommend Mazaj for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. The combination of excellent food, attentive service, and inviting ambiance makes it a standout choice in the area.“
“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.“
“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!“
“Olomi’s Grill in Johns Creek is a hidden gem for Mediterranean halal food. The Kabuli Puluo is a flavorful delight, combining tender meat with aromatic spices. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff add to the overall dining experience, making it a must-try spot.“
“Randomly went to Toco Grill after my daughter's swim class. I've lived in Atlanta for five years and I must say..Toco Grill hands down makes the best burger in all of Atlanta (I've been to every hotspot recommended to me.) The staff was super friendly and I think I've finally found my to go to spot since leaving Brooklyn.“
“Went there after a long time and were reminded how good the food is. The chicken karahi is the best with the soft afghani naan which is more like bread. The Chana had a unique smoky flavor. The Chapli kabab had a great texture to it and we all love the kabuli pulao. The pink Kashmiri style chai was so good. The service was good the server came by multiple times to check on us. I look forward to come back and considering catering from them.“
“We really enjoy coming here for lunch because it's just so convenient for us since we work nearby. Every item on the menu here is just so tasty, but I have to say my top picks are the Koefta sandwich with fries and the Falafel Platter. And the best part is, the owner is always super friendly and welcoming!“
“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!“
“The menu is awesome. The food is authentic and DELICIOUS! Once you’ve had your food from the grill, go next door to the bakery and sample the baklava and Turkish delights! The customer service is exceptional, and everything is delicious! I will DEFINITELY be back!“
“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)!“
“It was my second time going to this restaurant and I would like to come back here again and again. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming and hosts are really hospitable. We ordered 3 dishes and they were all delicious. Besides, they treated us with a complementary tea as well as a very good roulette which I recommend u to try.“
“We absolutely loved the food, and will be back for that very reason alone. The service was pretty good although a drink and a side never made it to our table and we were charged for the side as well as an extra pita bread that we did not order. Looking forward to returning.“
“Matheus was THE best server. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. The food was all delicious. Our group will all definitely be back to eat here again.Vegetarian options: The vegetarian app selection was amazing and the vegetable kebabs were delicious“
“yall that food was sooooooooooooo good and i'm so mad i forgot to take a picture before destroying that plate omg. it's kind of like chipotle for middle eastern/arab food. they give well-sized portions and some yummy pita to go with everything. the meat and rice is well seasoned and the veggies and sauce are super fresh 10/10“
“This was such a rewarding experience! The Falafels were top tier! Everything tasted so good. I got the Salad mixed with grilled onions and falafel, plus plus plus lol. So Tasty! The employees were welcoming and patient as I tried to decipher what all I wanted.“

“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.“
“Absolutely LOVED the food. I had the spicy buffalo shawarma platter with falafel and grape leaves (new for me) and it was INCREDIBLE.First, the place is quite small, but cozy. There is enough seating and I loved the small mom and pop shop vibe that was there. This is a small business and it feels that way too (in a good way). I ordered for pickup and the food was already there waiting for me. Good first impression!I got home and to my surprise it was still steaming hot, which is pretty impressive. They loaded my plate up with shawarma and loved the rice that they had. The chicken was incredibly juicy and tender, but so flavorful and seasoned. The rice was incredible too, it was also seasoned as well. The falafel were pretty great albeit a bit small, but the grape leaf was pretty interesting. It is an acquired taste that I really really liked, the only thing I can compare it to is a very pungent and somewhat sour roll of rice. It was really really good though and I wish I ordered some more. Portions were great though, I had a ton of chicken and rice and I have leftovers, so no complaints there.Overall, I'll definitely come back again and order some more. Genuinely great food and great staff as well!“
“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.“

“My wife and I had an amazing experience dining at Nara. This is not the first time we have enjoyed the great food and hospitality at this wonderful restaurant. Tonight’s experience was extra special because of Celine, our hostess, and the opportunity to meet the owner Mr. Rashid. Celine is such a sweet and nice person and took such good care of us. Mr. Rashid is so down-to-earth and polite and shared a bit of his entrepreneurial journey. We look forward to dining there again. Cheers! Dave Chatterjee“
“So, the Kadai Chicken and Garlic Roti were absolutely delicious. Yum! ??️ But here's the thing, we had to grab our own plates, glasses, and water. Apparently, the restaurant started doing this because people didn't want to pay an extra $5 for table service. Kinda weird, right? But hey, at least the staff was great!“
