Restaurant is divided into two partitions - the dinning area and the bar area. Both similarly sized. Saturday nights are pretty busy so we made a reservation.

Our server Gino - added a special touch. Very nice man, great service and awesome stories!!

Service was almost nonexistent, even with barely any other tables to worry about. We ordered an appetizer expecting something more elevated, but got mini hot dogs (basically Vienna sausages) with fries and honey mustard. The "water" was warm bottled Costco water -- we had to ask for ice separately. Worst of all, I ordered a tequila sunrise and got a glass of grenadine over ice. No tequila, no orange juice, nothing. To top it off, they tacked on gratuity for a party of two, despite service that didn't come close to earning it. Food and drink quality felt like an afterthought, and the vibe was nonexistent. Wouldn't go back.

The server absolutely refused to do so even though the restaurant was completely empty even until we left. This is the first place I have seen that charged us for hot sauce. The tiny Turkish coffee had half a cup worth of coffee dregs in it. Also on the check the waitress put us in as a party of 4 and even added a hefty tip herself while I know it's usually for parties of 5-6 or more. Food was below average co spidering the prices. All in all one of the worst dining experiences ever.

When we arrived, there was a bit of congestion at the front, and we had to wait for maybe 5 minutes before we were seated. Once we were sat, everything else was smooth sailing. Our server was very nice, and she took great care of the 6 of us! Rumi's is a nice place. High ceilings and mood lighting. Good food paired with great company. We started with the mirza ghasemi. It was nice and tomatoey with the smokiness from the eggplant coming through. I wouldn't say I liked it more than another place's though. The presentation of the food is pretty simple, but that does not detract from the taste. This is especially so with the chicken barg, which I found to be tender and filling, and the tomato with it was very juicy. I only wanted to order it because I saw that it was very popular here. Perhaps I should've went with the barg kabob since another friend swears by it and orders it every time. We ended with baklava, and wow! There was more filling than I normally get elsewhere, plus it was surprisingly not dry either. The filling really held itself well. There didn't seem to be much syrup on the plate, but the bottom layer did not disappoint either. It was hard to cut through as it soaked up all the sweetness. Altogether a delicious dessert. Probably near the top of the baklavas I've had. Also, if you get one of Rumi's sodas, like the peach soda, don't let it sit for too long. The lime and ice will dilute the flavor of the drink until all you can really taste is carbonated lime at the end. Whoops.

We had 4 adults and one 3 year old. We got out for something in the neighborhood of of $240. Ordering is ala carte: we had 3 meats, 3 sides, drinks. We had a very small bit left over. Decor was excellent. A beautiful entryway, muted lighting, muted noise. Service was attentive, friendly, and very helpful. While I'd love to return regularly, price makes that impossible, but it was definitely worth this visit. It will be up for consideration next time we have something big to celebrate.

As a longtime San Francisco Bay Area foodie, I've been spoiled by incredible international food and…read morebold, complex flavors, so I'm always excited when I find a restaurant that delivers that same sense of discovery. Delbar absolutely does. The food here stands on its own--layered, interesting and incredibly delicious. I had been looking forward to dinner at Delbar Old Milton for two reasons: a long-overdue dinner with an old colleague and a serious craving for Middle Eastern food. After battling Atlanta-area traffic from Marietta--it took nearly an hour for what should have been about a 30-minute drive--I was ready to settle in, catch up and EAT. I'd previously been to Delbar in Inman Park with a group and loved it, so expectations were high. Old Milton did not disappoint. The restaurant itself is gorgeous. Warm, sophisticated and beautifully designed, with a Persian rug welcoming you along the entrance and complimentary valet parking--a huge plus. The young valet team was impressively polished and efficient. I started with a Paper Plane, apparently my new financially irresponsible cocktail habit. Delicious, but these things are expensive! I blame the Italian liqueur. Two cocktails pushed north of $40, so perhaps I need a more economical signature drink. Then came the food. We started with the beet carpaccio: red beets, whipped feta, burnt honey, sour orange, pistachio and almond dukkha. Beautifully balanced--earthy, creamy, sweet, tart and nutty all at once. I let my dinner companion take over ordering from there, which proved to be an excellent decision. The Bandari Olovieh was the surprise of the evening: saffron-marinated smoked salmon with cream cheese, dill, chives, jalapeño purée, potatoes, Aleppo pepper, urfa, hot sauce, fried capers and cornichons, served with saffron potato chips. I'm not usually a salmon person, yet I loved this. The salmon was mild and delicate without the stronger flavor I sometimes associate with salmon or trout. And those saffron potato chips? Dangerous. I could happily eat a bowl of them. We also had the koobideh kabob, made with ground beef brisket and lamb shoulder with onion and saffron, served over taftoun with grilled pepper, tomato and sumac onions. Tender, juicy and packed with flavor. Wrapped in that bread, it was almost like the world's most delicious little Middle Eastern slider. By then, we were DONE. I had every intention of trying dessert, but there was simply no room. It was also getting late, and work was waiting for both of us the next morning. Next visit. Service throughout dinner was friendly and knowledgeable. This is a menu where good servers matter. Ours could explain the dishes and ingredients rather than simply take an order, and that added to the experience. Two small notes on the space. If Atlanta is doing its summertime furnace impression, I'd avoid tables near the doors leading to the patio. Every time they opened, a blast of hot air rolled through. Sit farther inside and enjoy the AC. And while I loved the Persian rug and overall design, the faux flowers and wisteria covering the entrance pergola weren't my favorite. Atlanta sun is brutal on anything artificial, and the rest of the restaurant is sophisticated enough that the entrance deserves something equally polished. Those are minor quibbles. The important part is this: Delbar is serving seriously delicious food in a beautiful setting with thoughtful service. If you're anywhere around Alpharetta or Roswell, make the detour. This place is not to be missed. Life is too short not to eat well. Get out there and find your next meal! Sorry, no photos;(
