“Absolutely delicious! The owners are adorable ❤️“

“I had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! The food was absolutely amazing—delicious, fresh, and rich of flavour. I ordered their bowls, and they were absolutely amazing so fresh, filling, and mouth-watering. Every bite was full of flavor and left me completely satisfied. The place was spotless, clean and very well-maintained, which made for a comfortable dining environment.

The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall great atmosphere.

Highly recommend and will definitely be coming back!“

“Delicious flavors, great ambiance, attentive staff. We will be back!“

“This was one of the best places as a whole that I’ve ever been to! This includes across the entire US, Europe and Central America! I’d recommend everything g, but the soup was to die for! The staff and especially Kameel are amazing as well. A sign inside says “we love you,” and Kameel can be seen telling his customers he loves them as he fist bumps! It’s such a warm and inviting atmosphere! Everyone should make a stop here regularly! I wish I was a local because I’d be a regular! I loved it! 😍 Thank you Aviva for such an enjoyable experience and meal!“

“Agora is truly the place to visit when in Atlanta. As a native Turk, I was overjoyed by the authenticity and flavor of the food. Every dish was beautifully seasoned, from the mercimek köftesi (lentil balls) to the döner tabağı (gyro plate). The meal concluded with a perfect touch of sweetness through the kabak tatlısı (pumpkin dessert à la Turka) and the most exquisite baklava.

What made the experience unforgettable was the service. Michelle was gracious and attentive, while Hakan’s hospitality and warmth were beyond words. We were so delighted by both the food and the atmosphere that we are already planning to return for Saturday breakfast. I wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend Agora to everyone.

I returned to Agora for a Turkish-style breakfast on Saturday, and once again, it exceeded every expectation. The moment I stepped in, I felt welcomed as if I were stepping into a dear friend’s home rather than just a restaurant. Hakan, once again, proved what an exceptional host he is. Then I met Sezgin (aka “Sez”) an extraordinary person whose warmth and hospitality elevated the entire morning.

If you’re seeking impeccable service and exquisitely prepared food, go to Agora. I was so enchanted that on my last day in Atlanta, I found myself drawn back there. Sezgin’s suggestions, the Adana Kebap, the Ispanaklı Börek, and the Dolma were nothing short of sensational. Leaving, I didn’t feel like I was saying goodbye to a restaurant, but to friends I’ll miss.

Thank you, Sezgin and Hakan, you made me feel home in the most genuine way. You both are simply the greatest!!“

“I tried this spot for the first time on August 30, 2019. I got the Gyro and the loaded fries. They were both delicious. I will definitely recommend this place to my friends. I can’t wait to go back.“

“A variety of great food options (roshambo <3, but also Whitehall for the casual family pub experience plus very solid Italian and Mexican options), an array of high-end shopping, and solid basics with publix, walgreens, Starbucks, and Ace hardware, if they didn't start at 900k I would want to live in The Dillon condos to have direct access to this right outside my door...“

“Great restaurant and loved everything about this place.“

“I ordered our food online and we were so hungry that we ate it when we got there! Everything was very delicious! The staff was very pleasant and the only issue was that they forgot to put the pita that came with my meal in our bag. I didn't get upset though because I am sure that it was an honest mistake!“

“Amazing healthy bowls of Mediterranean flavors!! Love the chicken, the lentils, the hummus and the dill yogurt sauce!!! Nico and Ben and Alec were working hard keeping the line moving!!!“

“Thank you, Kai! Our meal was delicious and healthy. I’m gluten free so I love having options. The grain bowl with salmon is filling and healthy and tastes great! The avocado salad was also delicious as was it beautifully prepared. Highly recommend!“

“I recommend the rack of lamb and the Istanbul Martini. The food was good and the atmosphere was great. I will be going back.“

“Wonderful meal! Loved the new decor and menu! 👍🏻👍🏻❤️“

“Fiance and I went on a busy Friday night and were lucky to grab seats at the bar. We tried to make a reservation 4 days in advance and nothing was available so make sure to plan wayyyyyyy ahead- it's a popular spot! Jennifer Ramos behind the bar was lovely; she's good company and provided great service even tho she was super busy. We enjoyed the hummus app, he had lamb, and I had the sirloin. All delicious and very flavorful with quick service. You can skip dessert tho, it was very whatever. Will return!“

“The owners are such wonderful men. The food is outstanding. The atmosphere is inviting. The wait staff did an excellent job serving all of us. The wedding shower was perfect. 6/82025“

“First time here and def is our favorite shawarma spot! Super flavorful! Great portions! Amazing pita!!! Everything was yummy!!! 😋 Will be back!!! Parking situation is a bit odd but Chamblee does have a good amount of on street parking which is what we did.“

“First time at Cava and it was delicious! Had the Greek Pita and it was huge and enough to share!“

“Their business lunch is to die for. Not only is it relatively inexpensive, the amount/variety of the food you get for it is simply outstanding. It's also relatively healthy, with little to no greasy/fried food in sight. The staff is friendly and parking aplenty. No complaints from me.“

“Had door dash bring me take out. THIS PLACE ROCKS the food bowls. Better quality and PORTIONS for the price compared to Gusto! They need more locations though .. new to Atlanta apparently... Open a store in Decatur and I will be there two times a week minimum“

“Larry was very helpful!! Good service“

“The parking is tight but I've always managed to find a spot. The weekly specials offer affordability and flavor, and the customer service is always so welcoming and kind. Everything I've tried from the biryani to the falafel to the lentil soup has been a total delight. Their malt sodas in a glass are a top notch beverage option too (peach is my favorite but please leave one for me :)! I hope their business only grows, the people working here are just as special as the food. ❤️🖤🤍💚“

“Had the best Tabbouleh Salad ever in my Life of eating Mediterranean food and I am born and raised here in Atlanta! 😍....“

“My absolute favorite restaurant in the West End of Atlanta!! You can tell that they really care about the food they are serving. The quality of the products are all top notch and flavors are excellent. I should have written this review sooner. It’s such a gem and so glad it’s in our neighborhood. Thanks so much for your beautiful food❤️“

“The food is awesome and the staff are amazing! It’s my favorite spot for lunch!“

“FABULOUS food! I’ve eaten in Greece, and this is authentic! Great service too…10 out of 10. Don’t miss out! 😋“

“First time having Yemeni food and it did not disappoint! Thoughtful sized servings, incredible flavors, and a beautiful restaurant where you can choose to sit at a table or on the floor for the cultural experience. Don’t think I’ve ever left chicken bones so clean! Please consider coming, I promise you’ll want to return!“

“@fia_atlanta is more than the restaurant located in Buckhead’s @theburgesshotel; it celebrates Mediterranean cuisine featuring wood-fire grilled specialties. Fia is open daily for breakfast and dinner and has a cozy, intimate atmosphere where you feel like you are among friends, due in part to the stellar customer service. The food is some of the best in Atlanta! My favorite dishes include the Butternut Squash Soup, Jumbo Asparagus, and Pork Belly. I found Mr. B's Burger good but not craveable given the price point.“

“Food was fresh and delicious! Great atmosphere to dine in as well and they are very welcoming! Will definitely be going back to eat. Especially the Falafel!!“

“The food is authentic and tastes really delicious! The rice stuffed grape leaves are as good as I used to make myself. Home cooked style meal for sure.“

“The food was hot, flavorful and delicious. I got the chicken biryani and my husband got the chicken vindaloo. The chicken in my dish was really tender. The only thing I wish it had was some vegetables because it’s basically just chicken and rice. I’ll definitely eat here again.“
