Don't leave Atlanta without trying this place. Overall - 5/5 Food - 5/5 Adana Kebab - 5/5 - this was the first time I had something like this. It was honestly delicious and really stood out. Sooo good, juicy, and flavourful. Labneh - 4.2/5 - Really liked this: it's like a whipped yogurt. The dill one was nice too and probably ordered that one a bit. Bandia Olivieh - 4/5 - this is another type of dip ish dish... really good but I liked the labneh more I'd say. Chicken Kofta - 4.2/5 - so flavourful and tasty. As a chicken lover, this was my next favourite after the Adana. So good. Service - 5/5 - We came here back in July (catching up on reviews). Our server, Max, was so great. Very positive, happy, and just an awesome server overall. Truly one of the best service I've ever had. Ambiance - 5/5 - Very busy, but a beautiful ambiance. Dim lighting with a cultural middle eastern feel. Honestly was so great and we're to the stellar dining experience.

The short rib was so tender you could cut it with a spoon easily, and it paired well with the lentil sauce. The pork belly with the grits was so good as well. The sautéed mushrooms inside the gnocchi and the sauce was second favorite. I wish there were more than exactly 4 gnocchi pieces but the mushrooms made up for it. The service was amazing our server was so kind and attentive, she even offered to take a picture of us. The ambiance is clean and neat. The complimentary valet at the front of the hotel was amazing, he was very kind and attentive as well. The cocktail drinks could be better, but not disappointing

Meats are perfectly seasoned and rice cooked just right. Taziki sauce is my favorite here. The consistency isn't too watery or thick. Running a company and need affordable lunches?

Looks like a family business, the man who greeted and sat us also took our order and prepared our meals. I chose the Lamb stew dish and my boyfriend the Curry Goat.

We also ordered their home-made sorrel juice, which was also amazing. The service was very good and quick, place was neat and clean with a quiet atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back and placed this on our favorites list! Highly recommend!

The interior is very mom and pop with soft lighting and old ceiling tiles but well maintained with an obvious attention to detail and care. There is limited seating inside; you've got long padded benches set in the walls and small tables. They seem ideal for parties of 4 or take-out. You can squeeze maybe one bigger party inside if you really want. I snagged a lamb sandwich on recommendation; it comed your choice of a chopped salad, cup of soup, or rice. I ended up going with the soup of the day which is a curry chickpea. The lamb sandwich was a definite winner. There's a lot of care and that same attention to detail to constructing it. There was a 15ish minute wait but perfectly acceptable since it all came out fresh. The lamb slices were super juicy and flavorful and the sauce added that extra spicy but not too spicy kick that went well with the softness of the pita and the crunch of the fresh lettuce. The soup was piping hot so I had to wait a few minutes to let it cool but flavorful and smooth. I'd gotten it as a potential dip but the sandwich did'nt need it so I'd probably go with the chopped salad next time. Overall, Cafe Sababa does a lot of what I enjoy in Mediterranean. I'd definitely stop in again and try out more items on their menu if I was in the area. A very good first impression.

We came here for brunch on a Sunday and had no issues getting a reservation the day of. That said…read morethe place was pretty full and there is a large patio area outside. We were seated inside right by where they plate the food so we got to see what some of the dishes looked like before ordering. We started with the cinnamon roll and it was huge! The equivalent to 3 huge individual cinnamon rolls, but stuck together to make a big one. It was really good too with a warm and soft middle and slightly crunchier outside rim. For my entree, I had the chicken chilaquiles. It was an incredible mixture with the egg on top and the spiciness level was perfect! The creme fraiche really up-leveled the dish. As for the service, decor, and ambiance, it was top notch. The ceilings are high and the interior is nicely furnished. The bar area has flowers over top and great for Instagram. Our server was knowledgable about the menu, kept our drinks full, and was patient with us. I'd love to come back for dinner as that menu looks great as well.

Four of us dined before a show at the Byer. My first visit, very excited about it, as I'd read the…read morereviews. We were seated at 600, told the hostess and servers we need to be done by 715 at the latest. Everyone said no problem. Apparently that wasn't true. Service was incredibly slow from beginning to end. The food ranged from good (crab dip, grilled shrimp on the salads) and charcuterie board (which arrived at 720 so we barely got a nibble.) Both pasta dishes were completely overcooked and bland. Salads swimming in dressing and slightly limp. Drinks were slow. All of this and no one - not a server, not a manager - ever apologized or offered to make anything right. We are 4 easy-going adults, low maintenance and not hard to make happy when we dine out. This experience was unacceptable by any standard. Each couple ended up paying $122 bucks each for food that we could not eat - either because it wasn't edible or it arrived far too late. (just a note here to say we all ordered light - no multiple courses, no complicated dishes.) Pros: Patio seating is nice. Staff was pleasant even if service was not. I can't see us ever returning.

Ate here for my birthday in Spring 2026…read more The service was REALLY good. Our drinks were never empty, but they were not intrusive. Super warm and nice, but also don't take over your time. The perfect balance. The food - just incredible. We all got something different and I got to taste each one. The Chicken Barg Kabob was everyone's favorite. The Chicken kabob is VERY close though. I got the Soltani which was also amazing. The thing to do though is sub out the Zereshk Polo rice. You won't regret it. I got a little adventurous and ordered the Torshi - pickled vegetables. I'm not really into vegetables and I was a little worried when it showed up and didn't look very appealing to me - but it was SO good. Loved it. The staff were seemingly entertained that I liked it - apparently it's only Persian people that are into it, and they kind of laughed when I wanted to take the leftovers with me. My son liked it too though! And he's picky. We were getting ready to go when suddenly they brought an ice cream and wished me happy birthday. I think they heard my son wish me a happy birthday at dinner. Just really paying attention to detail. So this bright yellow Persian ice cream shows up. I've never had it. It is really different - like a cross between dinner and desert flavors. That doesn't sound good but trust me it's great. Again, my picky son loved it! It's got a saffron-pistachio-rose thing going on that actually really works! Much of this is probably very familiar to those who have enjoyed Persian food before. For our family it was a new and wonderful experience. I love this restaurant and DEFINITELY want to come back for Father's day. This is going to be my new special occasion spot.
