    The food was top notch. I can't say enough about the hummus. I have never tasted anything better the real ingredients. OMG. Great service.

If you love authentic Mediterranean and Turkish flavors made with the freshest ingredients -- this one's a must-try. We kicked things off with handcrafted cocktails -- The Martini? Officially on my "every single visit" list. The Smoky Nights - a nice amalgamation of Mezcal and Black Label The Old Efendi Fashioned was perfectly balanced, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The Cold Mezze Board was a stunning collection of flavors -- every bite delivered. The spicy ezme easily stole the show for me. Sigara Börek came out hot and crisp -- the kind of appetizer you keep reaching for. For entrées, the Chicken Shish and Atlantic Salmon were cooked to perfection -- well-seasoned, juicy, and served with delicious accompaniments that tied everything together. Dessert was a sweet surprise -- The Kazandibi (homemade milk custard) was melt-in-your-mouth good without being overly sweet. And the Künefe? Perfectly portioned and every bit as indulgent as you'd hope. A refreshed vibe, authentic flavors, and 20 years of getting it right -- Efendi Mediterranean is ready for its next chapter.

The doner plate is a must-try: tender, hand-sliced lamb and beef served over fluffy rice with fresh purple cabbage and a dollop of tzatziki. The meat is seasoned beautifully and juicy -- one of the best kebab plates I've had in the area. The hummus starter is creamy, smooth, and flavorful -- perfect with warm pita. It's simple, fresh, and a great way to start the meal before diving into the heavier dishes. Service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere makes it great for everything from a casual lunch to a fun dinner night out. I'll definitely be back to try more items on the menu!

They have a large selection of hook-a options... things with different fills for the bases, a bunch of flavors combos, and even offer a delta 8 option. The decor is cool...

We also ordered the spicy mix kebabs , the milky dessert with tea, and mangu. The food was delicious, no complaints there at all. We loved the kebabs, the afghan rice, the bread, and the goat. We ended up ordering more rice because for us the portion was small since we were sharing. The service was slow and they were out of a few popular menu items. It wasn't packed but there were a couple of big tables already seated when we walked in. We never got the mangu and I had to find ways to distract myself since the food took a while to come. However, the servers were kind and apologized many times for the slowness. They even comped the extra rice for us. The ambiance was family friendly but I could see the place being a spot for adults to hang in the evening because there was open space. I think it would be a perfect venue for a small event. Definitely worth a try.

We started with the hummus and pita, which was a great surprise. I'm not usually a big hummus fan, but theirs has a really smooth, clean flavor. The pita was warm and soft, and the mix of black olives with olive oil on the side added a really nice touch. My wife ordered the lentil soup, and after trying a spoonful, I immediately regretted not ordering my own. It is easily one of the best lentil soups I've had -- full of flavor, rich, comforting, and seasoned perfectly. Definitely top-two in my book. For the entrée, I chose the large mixed grill platter (around $50), which comes with steak, chicken, lamb, and another kebab. It also includes two generous portions of rice, grilled vegetables, and tzatziki. The amount of food is impressive and absolutely enough for two people to share. The meats were tender, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. For dessert, my wife went with the chocolate mousse while I tried the pistachio cake. Both were excellent -- the mousse was rich and smooth, and the pistachio cake had great texture and flavor. One of the highlights for me was actually the mango lemonade. The first sip really stood out -- refreshing, balanced, and surprisingly good. The restaurant itself is very clean with a nice setup and comfortable seating. The owners and staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive. You can tell they are proud of what they serve. Parking is easy since it's part of a larger shopping center with plenty of spaces. There is still a lot on the menu I want to try next time -- especially the gyros. I'm very happy Cumming has a Mediterranean spot this solid. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys great food and great service.

We reserved a 7 PM table for a Friday night date night, and to our surprise, we were seated right away. The hosts were very cordial and welcoming. At first, we weren't sure who our server was until the manager came over and introduced themselves. As for the food, it arrived relatively quickly. I ordered the grilled wings, which are usually a must-have for me, but this time I was extremely disappointed with the taste. They honestly seemed like they were not fresh and may have been sitting in water for a while (I hope you get this). We mentioned this to our server, who apologized, but they didn't seem quite sure how to handle the situation and simply took the dish away. The bold flavors I've come to expect from other visits to Rumi's were noticeably lacking. While the food wasn't completely tasteless, the proteins felt much more bland compared to other Mediterranean restaurants in the area. This is clearly a very busy restaurant, and I've genuinely loved my experiences at Rumi's in the past. I hope this was just an isolated incident and not a sign that the restaurant's quality is being affected by how busy it has become.

The ambiance, decor and overall vibe is very upscale. Service was top notch, from the host to our server. Big shoutout to Kaleigh/Kaylie who was the sweetest and gave us the best recommendations. I always order the grilled wings because these are to die for, definitely a must!!! All of the dips in smaller orders we got were delicious with the complimentary bread, Muhammara with the walnut is my new obsession. For main entrées, we went with the Honey Harissa Chicken and the Lamb Neck along with an order of the buttery rice to share, with no regrets. The Harissa chicken was a classic spin, perfectly seasoned and paired with pickled onions and salad. The lamb neck was so home-y and rich, falling off the bone, with a perfect broth for the buttery rice. For dessert, we opted for the classic Baklava, solid classic one paired with rose water ice cream, and the Turkiramisú, which was a pleasant surprise, paired with turkish coffee such a delight. Overall an amazing dinner, perfect for solo, date night or groups. Parking is complimentary valet or self parking in the medical center next door.
