    Really good and authentic. Ate the guacamole, tamal, carne adobada, rellenito and everything was really great! Totally recommend it!

    In one of the nicest retail/business strips in the area.

You can really tell the quality and freshness of the ingredients. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, and the service made the experience even better. John and Morgan both did an amazing job explaining everything, staying on top of refills and orders, and making us feel taken care of without being overbearing. Definitely one of the better dining experiences we've had recently. Great food, great service, and great energy all around. We'll absolutely be back again.

I did join the membership program, however, I am questioning its value due to the fact that a lot of the benefits are in California where I'm assuming they may be based. Go into this with the expectation that it is different from Korean barbecue, because it is Japanese. However, it is just as delicious. I was a bit upset about the lack of a chicken option, you're going to have to choose between kaarage or a New Orleans style chicken cartilage to grill no boneless / marinated breast or thighs. Go in with the expectation that your eyes may be bigger than your stomach cause you will be charged for access food. However, the quality of the meat was great all of the steak options we had were enjoyable, along with the pork belly! We did get silver cheer, which had a member pricing of $45.99, which I think is typically about $55 without. It's a very well decorated establishment, it reminds me of a street that you'd see with the awnings, it's a fun environment to be in. It's also nice that drinks are included with your meal. I think I'll visit again just for the fact that I'm a member, or one of the sister locations opposed to the one in Atlanta.

The vibe is cozy but still upscale -- like a mountain lodge right in the middle of the city. Perfect if you're coming from shopping around Perimeter or just want a laid-back spot with really good food. Everything we ordered was fresh and flavorful, but what really stood out was how welcoming the atmosphere is. It's one of those rare places where you can bring friends, kids, or even go for a casual date and it still feels like a great experience. Service was friendly, attentive, and made the whole meal even better. You can tell the staff actually cares about making sure guests enjoy themselves because I have two 1yr olds with me and still got to enjoy adult life. If you're in the Perimeter area Eli the waiter and Colby hooked a mom up and looking for a place that has great food, good energy, and a menu with tons of options, this spot is definitely worth trying. I'm always exploring great restaurants around Atlanta and sharing honest reviews. Follow me if you want to discover more hidden gems and family-friendly spots around the city!

They really accommodated us by putting two tables together in a different area of the restaurant and not as close to the front door because it was freezing outside. We really enjoyed our time there. The house bread was a hit! There was only one hiccup, though my food never came out, which I had ordered the Mediterranean chicken bowl and then when it came out, it really wasn't nothing there. I asked for my tomato cucumber salad to be on the side. It never showed up the chicken on there is maybe about four pieces very small nothing to really work with so I just enjoyed some dessert and called it a night. I'm glad that the manager did not charge me for the bowl because it really was not worth it. I'll give them another try but I really had high hopes. I'm glad the guests with me enjoyed their meal and of course brussels sprouts is always a plus thanks lazy dog. See you again Lazy Dog!

The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, perfect for a laid-back meal with friends or family. They're known for hearty subs, and the Philly cheesesteak, juicy, well-seasoned, and served on a generous roll that soaked up all the flavor beautifully. Portions are generous, so you definitely get your money's worth. I also tried the Pastalaya with chicken, which were flavorful with great seasoning and cooked perfectly. The variety on the menu is excellent too, everything from Italian hoagies and pasta classics to salads and soups, so there's something for everyone. Service was very friendly and efficient, and prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. Would definitely recommend stopping in for a satisfying lunch or casual dinner. Ample free parking available in front and around the restaurant.

We have tried their Pastalaya made of Diavolo and alfredo sauce blended with grilled chicken, shrimp, Italian sausage, onions and green peppers. I was worried because it is their take on Jambalaya, but it was a wonderful burst of flavor. Garlic bread was a complimentary with our dish. Steven was our server for the day. Plenty of free parking in and around the restaurant. The Mad Italian first opened in Atlanta way back in 1973 and they have been going strong in Chamblee, GA ever since 1981. Their original location in Chamblee closed within the past ten years or so and they have a pretty much brand new spot literally about two doors down on Savoy Drive. Fantastic, modern restaurant facility. Unbeatable location. Top notch service. Friendly ambience that feels like home. Excellent service. And the best food you can get for the price.

Meals offered were filling and complemented beverages sold inside venue. Various specials were offered as well as a full menu.

If additional allergy concerns were shared, the chef was consulted to ensure accuracy. I enjoyed my wing combination of lemon pepper and jerk sauce. Made fresh to order and was delicious. The accompanying French Fries were perfect complement too. My partner enjoyed his veggie wrap which included a mixture of vegetables in a large tortilla wrap.
