The food and vibes are really chill. The overhead lights do stay on though - Also this is a non alcoholic place! The hookah is very good & strong and honestly gave me a bit of a head rush (i like that). I got the beef kebab and it was so tender and flavorful! I got half saffron rice and spicy rice and that was the way to go. My appetizer was alright, it was a bit too tangy/yogurty for me but that just feels like it was a me problem. Our server was really attentive and informative and I would reccomend trying this place out if you don't wanna get mediteranean food all the way in Atlanta! read more

This was the best food of my life. If you ever want a taste of Middle East in Atlanta, this is the place to go. I went with my Jordanian and Egyptian friends, and they even said that this was the most authentic to Home. We ordered a variety of appetizers and the best one was grape leaves. You have to order this! The best thing to drink was the lemon mint, it tasted like frozen lemonade with mint, so it was extremely refreshing. Lastly, we got the Nutella crêpe dessert and the attention to detail was insane. They mixed white chocolate, dark chocolate and Nutella. They also gave us a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I can't recommend this place enough!! read more

I've been to several Middle Eastern restaurants, but this was my first time at one that also offers hookah, an interesting experience. We ordered classic hummus, the Family Mix Grill plate, kabab, Fattoush Salad, sambousa, shawarma, and a few traditional desserts. The food was decent, not the best I've had, but enjoyable. Service was efficient, and the relaxed lounge atmosphere makes it a good spot to hang out and socialize. Overall, a nice experience for a pleasant evening with friends. read more

I was craving hookah and decided to try this place out. So we ordered apps and mixed grill and watermelon mint hookah. The food was delicious. I loved the rice. The fattoush came in a fried pita bowl and you have to break it to get into it. The service was good. I liked the ambiance. We went on a Sunday and it was busy. read more

Love the vibe, food and hookah. Do try the dessert. Only non alcoholic drinks available. It was interesting to see kids around at the hookah lounge but it is family friendly. Maybe if they were in just a section that would be better so they aren't looking at the people around them smoking hookah or inhaling it. read more

Mazaj Atlanta - Salad Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

The food is delicious! 10/10 the mint lemonade is to die for. I pretty much tried half the appetizer menu when I went. Everything was delicious! Hummus, baba ganoush, falafels, sambousa, tabouleh. The only thing that was not the best were the stuffed grape leaves. I always get the kofta and it does not disappoint. Unfortunately service is not the best. Last time I went I had to wait about 20 minutes to get my check after the plates had been cleared and it wasn't even my server that noticed someone else saw that I had been waiting. I saw there was a chicken shawarma side so I ordered it to go. I specifically told the server I only want it if it's one wrap if it's just the chicken I don't want it. He said okay I'll double check and only put it in if it's a wrap. I got home excited for my chicken shawarma wrap only to be disappointed because it was just the chicken. But food is 10/10. Would get 5 stars with better service. read more

Elevated hookah restaurant with different seating areas to accommodate your occasion! I went on a beautiful date & the server was super helpful on choosing a flavor + kept an eye out for our hookah (our first time). Food was an absolute 10/10 with the exception of there not being any pomegranate seeds in my Fattoush salad. I asked if they could bring some and she said she they stopped serving them inside a while ago :'(. Other than this everything was delicious & top tier. HIGHLY recommend you start with the hummus plate ... it was to d!e for! read more

This place is open till midnight on the weekday. I believe last call for food is 11 PM. We just had dinner and needed a place to hang out. I found this place and decided to give it a try. We didn't know it was a hookah bar. Even though we were not going to smoke, we liked the fact that the place was large enough that we couldn't smell the smoke anyway. It is very new and clean looking. The staff was very nice and friendly. We just came in there for drinks and they were very accommodating even though we didn't order much. We were just checking the place out, but we will definitely come back because everything was great here. Even the bathrooms were decorated nicely. read more

That was a very nice experience, and the food was outstanding. Our meal started with some mint tea and a hummus appetizer. The mint tea was outstanding, and I like it that they had packet of sugar at the table for those of us who desired it. Topped with beef shawarma, the hummus was a total crowd pleaser. The pita was perfect. I want to say it was freshly made, but it may have been steamed. Either way, it was delicious. I could have eaten this by myself for dinner. My wife and I had a chicken shawerma wrap, which was tasty, and a little spicy. There was some nice garlic sauce on the side. Good stuff. Don't waste your time on the fries. My friends each got the chicken shawerma and the beef shawerma entrees. They looked delicious. I will be ordering one of these the next time I visit. Wait-staff here took excellent care of us, checking on us frequently. Foods were presented to the table hot and fresh, and sometimes with a small flourish. There is some real culinary artistry going on in that kitchen. The restaurant itself is a largish-space, with plenty of couches/sofas for lounging with your hookah and your meal, and plenty of tables that can be arranged to accommodate groups of all sizes. We arrived early, which I think was the right thing to do. As the evening progressed, the tables filled up with a variety of Middle Eastern clientele, and we were perhaps the only table that was not partaking of a hookah setup. There was LOTS of hookah action going on. Folks everywhere were celebrating, or relaxing, or just having a good time with each other. It was a good scene. Mazaj is also set up for live entertainment, but that wasn't happening during our visit. Perhaps we'll see that next time. Holler if you're coming with. read more

What a gem! Husband and I wanted something healthy after an evening out and came across Mazaj on the way home and fell in love. The restaurant is in a plaza so there's ample free parking. Inside the restaurant is very spacious with either table seating or sectioned booths. We were seated at a table. We loved the authentic vibe of the middle eastern music & cuisine. Our waitress was very nice and gave us wonderful recommendations. We first ordered a Greek salad with mushrooms which was phenomenal. Along with a mint lemonade that was extremely fresh and potent in flavor. For entrees we had the chicken shawerma and beef shawerma that came with sides of rice. Both entrees were well seasoned and light. The portions were large so we had a good portion of leftovers to take home. The restaurant also had hookah available but we did not try that night. Will definitely be back to try more dishes, drinks and hookah. read more

I'm not sure what happened here but this place used to be good. I noticed recently a lot of people that used to work here a few weeks ago are all gone. Management I don't think really knows how to run a restaurant. Our server last night was beyond rude. Food was terrible and it used to be our go to spot. Don't think we will be returning here. There are better options for food in Duluth and towards the city. read more

Food choices were many, and appetitizers were great! Service was excellent, our waiter explained the menu to us and what he recommended, as this was our 1st time there. The prices were also very reasonable as well. We will definately be going back. read more

Mazaj has easily turned into one of my favorite lounges / Mediterranean restaurants in Atlanta. I will also say that their Fatoush salad is the best I have ever had. The first time I visited was around the time they had opened. Service was a little slow, and I was a bit disappointed as their food was delicious and the atmosphere was beautiful. Since that first visit, I have gone back several times and my experience has been more than better. I have brought my friends and family from out of town here, and all have agreed at this being one of the best Mediterranean / Arab spots in the city. I recommend getting the fatoush salad. You won't be disappointed! I look forward to one day coming to one of the concerts / live music shows they have. Food is halal :) read more

The food at Mazaj was INCREDIBLE! We had the hummus which was great and the bread was warm and soft. The environment was beautiful and very lively for how late at night we went. Was a great spot to go to with some friends and family. The waiters were very kind and attentive. read more

Beautiful space - they have a stage at the front so perfect for special events. They have hookah too. Friendly service. Food was very good, and portions were generous. CHICKEN SHAWARMA PLATTER - $18 Chicken was very flavorful - I was expecting kabobs but instead got lots of pieces of chicken over the saffron rice, ... and a then a few random mixed greens on top. Served with a garlic sauce that was very good. Also a very spicy green sauce. Overall delicious dish. I'd definitely come back to try their other dishes. My two colleagues enjoyed their food too. read more

Would have been good if I got my food. Ordered an Arabic chicken shwarma and waited an hour didn't received my order. Waiter was Ahbed and although he was nice, was not very attentive to our table.

Mazaj Atlanta - Chicken shawarma Extra veggies Garlic sauce - Salad Near Me - Duluth, Georgia

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. The service was painfully slow, but the real issue was the manager's blatant dishonesty. We asked for a specific table, and she told us it was reserved. Right after saying that, she put a "reserved" sign on it. clearly just to keep us from sitting there. A few minutes later, a new customer walked in, and we overheard her say, "Would you like this seat or this one?" while pointing at the very table we originally wanted. The way they handle customers is beyond unprofessional. If you like being lied to and waiting forever for service, this is your place. Otherwise, I'd suggest going somewhere that actually values its customers. read more

I went up to Duluth to check out the hookah. The space is big; ample parking, some couches and lotsa tables for big groups. Tv plays sports. We were seated quickly, server was ok , was likely new so didn't have a lot of suggestions for us. The chicken shawarma wrap and salad was the best pick. Both hummus and baba ghanoush were average, could have been elevated if the bread was warm. The hookah itself was average too, I felt we ordered the wrong flavor. We ordered the mazaj which has coconut so not my cup of tea. The desserts are pretty good. Both baklava and kunafe are above average. read more

Waiter was nice, food was good. Only a few issues to be aware of.... The kids menu "chicken tenders grilled or fried with fries $12" we specified grilled, my toddler got the chicken. She ate it, honestly it was good. Got the bill, charged $18 for it. Brought it up to the waiter. We were told that the fried tenders are $12 but the grilled is $18, not mentioned when we ordered. I got the chicken shawarma ENTREE that was $18 and it had more chicken than her plate. My wife got a side order of grilled chicken which was $8, and it was 4 nice sized pieces, an order of fries is $5...so I'm not really sure where the $18 comes from for a kids item on the menu. My wife, ordered the fattoush salad, she was craving pomegranate seeds, I don't know, she's pregnant she can have what she wants. She got the salad, there were no pomegranate seeds on it. Was told by the waiter if we want that we need to ask because they stopped putting it on the salad because SOME people started not liking them, mind you there are 4 other delicious looking salads on the menu. Really hate being the "can I talk to the manager type" and plus our daughter was at her limit so we left before the manager came out. I'm kinda bummed because the place is really close to us, not sure if we'll go back but be alarmed. read more

Sigh. We were so excited to try this place because of the great reviews and were greatly disappointed. We ordered to go, so that may have affected our experience to a degree, but the flavors were just off to me. We ordered the hummus to start, and I hate to say this and don't want to be mean, but it was one of the worst hummus's I have had. It just lacked so much in flavor. My main was chicken schwarma. It may have been prepared differently than I'm used to, but it had this sweetness in the flavor profile that just didn't match up with the rest of the dish. That's the best way I can explain it. The others in my group either felt the same as me about their food or were decently satisfied. So I'm sure this place can be a hit or miss, but it was a miss for me, I'm sorry. read more

I usually like to stop here with friends on weekends. Mazaj has a nice vibe and friendly staff. Plenty of parking spots and comfy seatings.

Get the lentil soup and the tobouleh salad (I know that spelling is wrong). They are seasoned to perfection and out of this world. Don't get the fries, they're absolutely horrible. I ordered on the phone and picked it up so I can't really comment in the service or ambiance; but it was 1 am when picked up my food and the restaurant absolutely looked like it was a hookah party where everyone and their mama knew each other. Seems like a cool place to hang out late night! read more

We went there very late at night on a Monday and got great service and great food! It was a little bit dark, but that is the vibe of the place! The Lamb was delicious! I haven't had lamb from another place in ATL taste as good as this one and this was Monday night before they close! read more

First time at mazaj and they deliver big time. The place has spaced out lounge seats and pre set dining tables with cozy lighting and a stage for live music on the weekends. Service: Absolutely AMAZING . Food: great selection of Middle Easter foods We tried these: Chicken Shawarma 10/10 Lemon mint drink - Refreshing! Mango strawberry smoothie - fresh and tasty Strawberry crepe 10/10 And the star at our table Fresh house made Kunafa. We also enjoyed flavorful hookahs at great prices. read more

My friend and I were looking for a place to eat, and being new to the area I reached out to one of my other friends for recommendations of places where I could take him. This restaurant was on his list of places. I pulled into the parking lot, I could tell the quality of the place by the customers walking in. As I entered the restaurant, I felt the ambiance was something special. On top of that, it was clean and modern. Patrons were enjoying themselves, it felt like everybody was on the same wavelength. The seating was spread out and the place didn't feel congested. The seats were cozy and well-maintained. We got there on a Monday night, I ordered the Shish Taouk and some Mint Tea. The chicken was fresh and juicy, and the onions and vegetables were grilled to perfection, all complemented by a generous amount of saffron rice. As you can see from the pictures, I didn't waste a single bite. The Mint Tea tasted like I was back overseas, authentic enough to make me feel nostalgic. After the meal, we ordered the Lemon-Mint Hookah and some Red Bull. We stayed an extra hour talking about our past and future. Another friend had joined us and that night had become a memorable time for all of us. The service truly makes this place stand out amongst others. Our waiter, Abdel Jawad, frequently visited our table and asked us if we needed anything. Once we got our hook he just let us hang out, and never felt rushed to finish and pay. This review reads like a paid advertisement but it is not. This is my genuine reaction to this gem of a spot. A must-try for anyone who wants a night to relax and appreciate one's company. read more

Dined here for the first time this past weekend. We sat outside for dinner since the weather was beautiful. The patio was completely shaded, had several tables available, and was private. Although nice, some flowers/plants would have added to the atmosphere. They also have a variety of seating options indoors - traditional tables and lounge areas. The falafel was crisp and tasty with lots of coriander. The baba ghanoush was smokey and delicious. The half grilled chicken was the best dish we ordered. It was delicious and cooked to perfection. Wish we would have ordered it with the saffron rice instead of fries. The chicken shawarma was disappointing as it lacked flavor and was not traditionally cooked on a spit. It was just slices of chicken sautéed in a pan. read more

Walking in you can see the effort put into this place to make it the go to spot--place was clean and well taken care of filled with tables and chairs and a nice amount of couches for people to sit on and smoke hookah--we went around 5pm, restaurant had a few guest at the moment but came in with a craving for kibbeh. Not many places offer kibbeh so I was excited to check this place out. Service was mediocre, server seemed annoyed that we weren't ready to order right away. It was our first time there so I needed a minute to make wise choices since the menu indeed did look appetizing. Sad part is we barely made it through our apps before asking for the bill(once we finally got the servers attention--since he ignored us for almost our whole dining experience) but ignoring that fact we didn't order more than appetizers because the food was bland, lacking in the herbaceous cuisine food was flat out disappointing-which truly was a shame since I would have love to have made this place a go to since they are open late. But the tasteless food left a bad taste in our mouths of pure disappointment. After appetizers we ask for the check cause we didn't want to risk eating anything else. The sambusas were quite tasty but it's hard to mess up stuffing cheese in a puff pastry. Kibbeh was dry and bland with no seasonings and had to squeeze lemon on it to help us swallow it down for how dry it was. The labneh was underwhelming we asked for extra herbs to bring it to life. And dolmades--were interesting to say the least. Nothing more disappointing than spending money on food and poor service and leaving hungry and still craving what you originally came out for. read more

Lovely. That's the best adjective to describe this place! We can where for our friend's birthday. She has dietary restrictions, but she's able to eat most of what's on the menu here. I'm vegan predominantly, so I was curious of their falafel. I've always had terrible experiences with falafel, so I was certainly skeptical of the wrap option, but! When I tried the appetizer OMG!! I have never and I mean NEVER tasted anything so good. That confirmed I needed to get the wrap. It was so delicious. And then the hummus was yummy and the fries were crisp and yummy. Omg this place is great. They also have hookah, which some people in our group did. This was so awesome. I wish they were on Uber Eats! The only critique I have is the Lemon mint juice was way to sweet. I thought that it was a refresher instead. It tasted good, but it was a bit much. It was great overall and I highly recommend this place! read more
