My husband and I drove up from Buckhead after one of my clients highly recommended Mashawi -- and…read moreit did not disappoint. The ambience was very traditional Mediterranean style, which made the experience feel authentic and warm. The restaurant was extremely clean, and you can tell they take pride in maintaining their space. I especially loved the open kitchen -- being able to actually see the food being prepared adds a level of transparency and makes the whole experience feel even more special. Everything was incredibly fresh -- from the crisp salad to the perfectly seasoned meats and fish. You can truly taste the quality in every bite. I had the green mint drink, and it was so refreshing and fresh -- the perfect addition to the meal. We chose the $45 dinner option, and it was absolutely worth it. The amount of food we received for that price was amazing -- generous portions, high quality, and full of flavor. It honestly felt like a great value for everything included. The staff was very friendly and attentive, which made the entire experience even better. Overall, 10 out of 10. We will definitely be back. I just wish this location was closer to the city -- they need a second location in Midtown or Chamblee!

So my friend and I came here for a late lunch and she ordered the lunch option for one. She came…read morefrom far so I wanted to give her some company and joined her. I had already ate since it was late but she had a long drive back and decided to stop by this place which is only 10 mins from me. The manager or owner came by to see what I wanted to eat and I told him I am only here to spend time with my friend and not eat since I already ate. He felt offended some way so I said "I will share with my friend" please tell me in what language does share with my friend mean I want TWO orders of the lunch option? You can only order lunch or dinner that has a preset menu. Which includes couple of meats, dips and pita. We received one individual bowl of each item that was listed out, one basket of pita, and one set of meats. We got the bill and there were two lunch orders, so we told the server mind you he had been coming to our table the whole time and then sends his server to take our bill. We informed the server that we only ordered one lunch and we were being overcharged, manager then comes and said it was two orders and walks away. This is the first time I've encountered anything like that so beware! It's sad that he could not honor what was explicitly told and did this to us, because the food was good and I really wanted to bring my family here but not after this deceit

I have tried Rumi's...was obsessed with DelBar for a while. Decided to give Yalda a chance -- tbh I…read morelove this place ten toes down over any other Persian/Middle Eastern restaurant in town. The labneh is so much more creamy. All of the meat is so well seasoned. I love the garlic toum and zhoug. I will not ever order from another Persian place in the city. Yalda clears them imo. And this is from a takeout perspective. I went in person with my parents. Whenever they come into town they requests the above mentioned restaurants. We decided to try Yalda. They prefer here over the others. Said the food is more flavorful, fresh. And that's coming from a Korean lady who is incredibly picky about where she eats in public. With that said, The Sandy Springs location is beautiful. Service was impeccable. Such friendly and attentive staff. Parking can be frustrating but I don't even care lol. Yalda ILY forever!

Bismillah, MashaAllah, Alhamdulillah…read more.. It's very serendipitous that my hotel is within walking distance of this restaurant. Never had convenience and quality come together so beautifully. The food, the service, the ambiance are all fantastic. I was torn between shawarma and lamb shank - the staff recommended the lamb shank, which I'm happy about. It was fall off the bone tender. They could have gone heavier on the spices but they give you sauce (tahini and garlic mayo-ish). The bread was amazing too... fresh, fluffy and warm. The food came out super quick. There's plenty of seating - it's a large space with many booths and tables. The decor is lovely. I wish they were playing some Arabic music to round off the experience. There's ample parking in the lot. If you're wondering if the restaurant is Palestinian - it is. I asked the staff lol. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu before I leave Marietta.

Found this spot through the Peachy Eats Passbook (used the BOGO entrée), and it's definitely worth…read morea visit! Great atmosphere, a lively bar scene, and some really standout dishes. What we ordered: Apps: * Fattoush salad - Fresh and full of flavor with crisp radishes, cucumbers, tomato, and a nice hit of sumac. * Dill labneh - Flavor-packed and delicious, though a bit thick, which made it harder to scoop with the soft pita. Mains: * Chicken barg - Phenomenal. Incredibly flavorful and easily the star of the meal. The house dressing on the side was addictive - I was literally scooping up extra rice just to dip into it. I substituted the rice for grilled veggies (up charge of +$7 felt extreme esp considering the entree was already $30) but the veggies were absolutely delicious. Squash, zucchini, peppers, onion, pineapple. * Honey harissa chicken - Disappointing. Lacked flavor, cook wasn't great, and didn't compare to similar dishes elsewhere (DelBar) * Adas pollo rice - Decent with a nice crunchy exterior, but overall just okay in both flavor and portion. Also doesn't compare to DelBar's. Service: We sat at the bar. Our bartender seemed newer and struggled a bit, but her teammate stepped in and really elevated the experience with great service and humor. Overall: Great vibes, strong bar, and some truly delicious food. A few misses, but the highlights make it easy to recommend.

A Spectacular Dining Experience!…read more The atmosphere, the service, and the food were all truly spectacular. Every part of the evening exceeded our expectations. The Chilean sea bass was cooked to absolute perfection--tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The grilled shrimp paired with the coconut rice was another standout, rich and satisfying without being heavy. From start to finish, it was an excellent dining experience. If you're anywhere in the Atlanta Metro area, I highly recommend making this a stop on your list. It's well worth.

The space has a much more open feel to it, which was nice to see. Started with the hummus, which was excellent. For entrees, had the chinjeh and the sea bass. The chinjeh tasted good, was slightly overcooked (I ordered medium) but was fine to eat. Wife really enjoyed the sea bass. The rice for both dishes were quite tasty. Our server, Jonathan, was excellent. Very attentive and always checked to see if everything was okay. Still don't understand why parking ($3) is charged separately. It should be complimentary and then we just worry about tipping.
