I've never had Persian food and it was absolutely delicious, everything we tried. Our server was super nice and gave us great recommendations, cocktails were on point. Ambiance was beautiful and such a vibe. I loved this restaurant!! I rarely give 5 stars but I wouldn't change anything about my experience.

Absolutely amazing Persian restaurant! The decor is stunning, the atmosphere is beautiful, the service is exceptional, and the food is simply outstanding. Everything about our experience was top-notch. Easily one of the best Persian restaurants we've ever visited. We loved it so much that we're seriously considering flying back to Atlanta just to dine here again and then flying home. Yes, it's THAT good! Highly recommend!

Great vibes. Lots of seating inside and out. Beautiful interior design. Perfect for just drinks, casual get together or special occasions! Service was great and staff were very attentive. Favorite spot for labneh! Great flavor and very creamy. Never had a bad meal here. The honey harissa chicken was juicy and so were the wings.

I come from LA where it's the Persian food capital in the US. This place was MIND blowing!!! Everything here was just amazingly delicious! It took Persian food to a whole new level for me! I wanted to order everything but obviously couldn't and it's so affordable! The ambiance is cool and chic and what a vibe here! Pure Persian luxury at its finest! Service was great! Everyone is so friendly here it's almost unreal. I wish we had this place in LA! If you want something amazing and unique, this is the place in Atlanta.

My sister took me to Delbar to get a birthday bite, and from the moment we walked in, the restaurant was very nice. I really enjoyed the ambiance. They seem to have a very buzzing bar scene, both indoors and outdoors, and I just like where it's located. It's literally walking distance from my apartment, but because of the humidity, we did drive across the street. Nonetheless, there are so many Middle Eastern, Turkish, Persian, and Lebanese restaurants all over the city, but I will say Delbar stood out with the service. I really enjoy food from this region of the world. However, I do think once you've had this type of food a few times, you kind of have a good idea of how it will be. I really enjoyed their à la carte menu. It gave me more ability to customize my own meal, and I thought their service was exceptional. I also really liked the little details, like the napkins they provided. They poured a little water on them at the table, and they expanded. It was a small detail, but a nice touch. Overall, I had a really good experience here. Out of some of the popular restaurants you hear about, like Yalda, Zakia, and some of the others, Delbar definitely stands out as the best to me so far. The only one I still have to properly try is Rumi's. I did have a small appetizer there once, and it didn't really stand out to me that much. So yeah, I highly suggest giving Delbar a shot.

Cocktail list. Love the names.

Very solid. It is big and you can sit at the bar if solo. Very lively scene. Hip place you will enjoy the ambience. Food is great I sampled only a bit. Hummus is good. Heirloom tomatoes salad also great it is definitely more than enough for one person could feed two maybe three. Service very attentive and thoughtful. Cocktail list is funny has things like Saudi Money and Long Live the Shah. I'd love to come back and eat more of the menu.

I love Delbar, they never disappoint! This was my first time visiting the Buckhead location. While I still prefer the Inman Park location, this one is excellent as well. I especially loved the outdoor patio, and the service was friendly and attentive. The food is just as consistently delicious as it is at the Inman Park location. Some of my favorites are the salmon plate, adas polo, heirloom tomato salad, and the Omani shrimp. Whatever you order, don't skip the green sauce, it pairs perfectly with just about everything on the menu. Delbar is a great spot for a birthday celebration, a girls' night out, or a date night. I'll definitely be back!

Everything we tried at this restaurant was delicious (except the rice that's cooked in butter, way too much butter and I did not like the buttery oily taste). The hummus was excellent so the lavash, chicken kebab and eggplant dip. We did not like the roasted cauliflower as most parts of the sides were completely burned black and the tahini aioli sauce on top was way too much, overpowering the whole cauliflower and very spicy. The ambiance was very beautiful and cozy, the customer service was also great. We would definitely come again.

Delbar Buckhead has the BEST PATIO!
Renita F.

Delbar Buckhead absolutely lived up to the hype. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared, but the real standouts were the trio of dips. The tzatziki was incredibly fresh and creamy, the hummus was silky smooth with rich flavor, and the smoky eggplant dip topped with onions was unforgettable, I could have happily made an entire meal out of those alone. We ended the evening with the pistachio cake and soft serve ice cream, and wow... the perfect ending. The cake was moist with just the right amount of sweetness, and the creamy soft serve complemented it beautifully. What made the experience even more memorable was the hospitality. Jason, the General Manager, stopped by our table to make sure everything was perfect and surprised us with complimentary dessert. That level of genuine hospitality is becoming rare these days, and it made us feel truly appreciated as guests. Delicious food, warm service, and a welcoming atmosphere! Delbar has definitely earned a spot on my list of favorite restaurants in Buckhead. I can't wait to return.

Rena Y.

Great for the vibes but overpriced and slow service. The food was good, but I'm not sure if I would continue paying for the price point when there is plenty of Mediterranean around the city. The ambience is good for a date night or if I had a family coming in town and wanted to impress them overall service was a bit slow and it took us a long time to get seated and get our dishes.

Chinjeh & honey harissa chicken
Amelia C.

Arrived late on a Friday night with no reservation at the Buckhead location. There is a parking deck nearby that they validate (information on their website). We did not have to wait 10 minutes for a table to open up in their covered outdoor area. The ambiance is very turnkey with low lighting, upscale but not formal. Also lamps at the table to read the menu. The service was excellent. Kind and boxed your leftovers for you. Made sure waters were full. Very informed about the menu and was able to provide recommendations. Favorite part of the meal. The food was prepared to perfection. They start you with some naan bread and some toppings for it (complimentary). For an appetizer we ordered the kashk bademjoon. It was tasty, but I found it hard to taste the individual flavors. For our mains we ordered the honey harissa chicken (my favorite part of the meal) and the chinjeh which is a beef dish. Both cooked to perfection. This is definitely a place for people who like spices! Additionally we got the sabzi polo (rice) which was very rich in flavor. The meet dishes came with some pickled veggies which was my highlight of the meal. This is a very unique place with high quality dishes. However, I think it is up to personal preference whether people like this style of food, but there is something for everyone here. Recommend to try at least once while in the city.

Food 5/5 Service 4/5 Ambiance 5/5 We went to celebrate birthday and everything was just right. We ordered couple appetizers and dips. Everything we ordered was outstanding. They have parking in the plaza behind the restaurant that they validate or you can do valet parking.

smoked bass and labneh
Keilab A.

Delbar is a staple in the Atlanta food scene. I came for dinner on a Friday evening without reservations, and was seated within 5 minutes. First of all, the restaurant is breathtakingly beautiful. We sat on their covered patio and I loved the natural, colorful decor. They provide a complimentary sabzi plate (feta, walnuts, radishes, and herbs) and taftoun (flatbread). My friend and I shared the smoked bass and labneh (yogurt) to start. The bass was incredible! Super flavorful and flaky. The plain labneh was on the blander side, so I'd prob order the dill labneh if you are choosing between the two. Our mains included the tender hanger steak and perfectly cooked polo sefid (crispy basmati rice). Service was quick and friendly too. I'd highly recommend this spot.

Delbar - A delightful dining experience (8.5/10)…read more Delbar was such a great experience! We had a 7:15 PM reservation but arrived around 6:45 PM and were seated right away. The ambiance is beautiful, making it a great spot for date night or an adult night out. They are also family-friendly and welcome children. Our server, Kennedy, was fantastic! She was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and shared that she first fell in love with Delbar after visiting with a girlfriend. I love hearing that kind of genuine enthusiasm from someone who works there. We took her recommendations, and she did not disappoint! We started with the wings and one of their dips. Those dips were OUT OF THIS WORLD! I was surprised to learn they were yogurt-based rather than cheese-based. So creamy and flavorful! For our mains, we ordered the lamb and steak. The lamb was giving more soup than stew, which I wasn't particularly fond of, but the steak was tender and flavorful. We paired everything with their raisin rice (!!), which was SO delicious. Unfortunately, dessert was where things took a turn. I LOVE baklava, but this one missed the mark. It was very dry, lacked that thick, gooey, syrupy texture and practically fell apart when cut into. The rose flavor was also extremely overpowering. I took one bite and knew it wasn't for me. Definitely not my kind of baklava! One thoughtful detail worth mentioning: the unisex bathrooms have wicker baby bassinets for changing little ones. A nice touch for parents dining with babies! Overall: 8.5/10. Between the ambiance, service and delicious food, Delbar delivered a lovely experience. The dips and raisin rice were standouts! The dessert is the only reason I'm not giving it a higher rating. Definitely worth visiting for date night or an evening out with friends.

They really took their time with the decor and the small details, like napkins, silverware, everything! The bathrooms were even beautiful. I ordered the mushroom hummus (superb), the chicken skewers (superb), and the green chutney (superb!) Everything was bursting with flavor. There was so much depth within that food. I will absolutely be coming back and it's absolutely worth a trip!

My stare got the lamb kabobs with dill rice. She let me taste the dill rice. It was ok but the saffron basmati rice was far better to me. My sister said her lamb was slightly overcooked by a hair but my chops were perfect! The seasoning was there but the flavor of the lamb was still there. Overall, I enjoyed it and would definitely go back.

We then shared the koobideh kabob, Chilean sea bass, and Cornish hen. The sea bass was absolutely incredible and is a must get! I thought the hen was good too but koobideh kabobs just aren't my thing usually. I usually like saffron rice at other Persian spots better but I really enjoyed the shirin polo. Overall Yalda is a great spot! It doesn't stand out too much compared to the other Persian restaurants because I think they're all good, but if you're in the area I would recommend!

Rice very heavy and you get a whole lot with each order. Main course meals were average which was a little less than expected based on the restaurants. The restaurant itself is extremely overwhelming - loud and chaotic. The place is quite cramped and they are squeezing a lot of tables in a small space which put us in a corner right by a staff are, and then staff were getting stuck at the table as there are staff running around everywhere during service. The constant movement was a little distracting during the meal for sure. The staff and service was otherwise excellent, the servers know the menu very well, give what seem to be honest suggestions, and are extremely personable. The service was hit or miss probably because so many things were going on that we could see it being hard to keep up (e.g. staff coming back with more wet towels or cutlery which never ended up coming). After hours you can park in the lot next door which is a short walk around, or complimentary valet parking in the front lot. A little chaotic as well but the lot is tiny so to be expected.
