    Gorgeous women, love this place, will always come here, good hookah, great food, great prices, very busy unfortunately there are long wait times but, it's always worth the wait. Love you guys, I'll keep bringing my cars here

    Hummus, Sambousa

    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.

    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.

    Grape leaves and tabbouleh

    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.

    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.

    Chicken shawerma wrap

    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!

    Mint tea service.
    Mick D.

    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.

    Gorgeous bathroom

    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.

    Fatoush Salad with Chicken Shwarma - to go
    Mahia Z.

    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 :)

    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. The overall ambience was great and I'm understanding that there was an event being held but customers should not have received the impact of this.

    Delicious! Could have given me more than one onion when i requested extra veggies. But it was great! Soft rice . Unbelievable flavors! Great atmosphere, always jammed packed when i work in the area!

    How smoky is it inside?

    It wasn't very smoky when we went but we also went closer to closing so not sure if that makes a difference.

    Is alcohol served here?

    No just hookah and fresh drinks but not alcohol

    t's not a new concept, the custom salad. Salata gets a 5 because it sticks to its lane and does it…read morereally well. The servers behind the bar tend to be energetic, friendly students from the nearby high school. The owner is also friendly. Everything is fresh. They have vegetables, fruits, nuts, proteins, and anything else that might go on a salad. Some categories of ingredients are extra, such as proteins. These are clearly marked so there are no surprises. They are generous with whatever toppings are requested. Ask for more of what you like. They do not weigh the salads they combine for you. They sell by container. Fill it as you will. I've seen people take advantage to the point where the container will barely close but the server just smiles. It must even out. The restaurant is spacious and well lit. Plenty of natural light during the day. The minimalistic design just feels right. Value is great. You really can't go wrong.

    Man it is a heck of a salad... huge even... loaded with all the things you want and none that you…read moredon't, but I got one the other night and it was $30+ once it was delivered. Now I certainly got everything I wanted.. and it was loaded to the brim (next time I'm asking for more corn) but the price just about threw me for a loop. By the time it delivered the cost was way high! I guess maybe it is better to eat in. I mean it's a salad... the main component is still lettuce... but honestly if I had one complaint it was that there was not enough lettuce. I guess I loaded it up with so much stuff there was less room for lettuce? In the end it was a great tasting salad... fresh, loaded, and fantastic.. just a bit on the pricy side especially once delivered. But next I'm time I'll just go and eat there!

I learned about the place from Instagram - not sure if they still have the $10 lunch specials but that was the lure that got us to check it out. They are located in the same shopping as the Medlock Regal Cinema. CHICKEN KARAAGE COMBO - $10 The karaage was good. Came w/ a mayo-like sauce for dipping. Cabbage salad served as a starter - learned later that you can opt for the potato salad instead which we'll try next time. Combo also came w/ a miso soup which was delicious ... one of the best miso soups I've had! MINCED KATSU COMBO - $10 This was the highlight dish for sure. The katsu coating was perfection, and the pork inside was not at all what I expected ... it was minced and interesting tasting ... we loved it! Served w/ two sauces, and pickles. Also came w/ the cabbage salad as a starter, and the miso soup. Next time I'd like to try the Croquette Combo w/ the potato salad - and eventually try all their dishes. The menu looked really good!

It was around 8 PM on a Thursday night, and the place was pretty empty. There were only two occupied tables including us. The service was simple but friendly. Since it's a tonkatsu place, most of what we ordered was fried: - Mentai Cheese Stick: It was okay. I mostly tasted the cheese rather than the cod roe, and it was a bit salty. - Chicken Katsu - Shrimp Katsu - Pork Katsu Because most of our order consisted of katsu dishes, the flavors started to blend together a bit. There wasn't a huge difference in taste between the chicken and pork katsu. The restaurant itself is clean and has separate booth seating, which gives a nice sense of privacy. The food was good, but not quite as impressive as I hoped for from a tonkatsu-focused restaurant. Quality-wise, it felt more like a high-quality fast food chain rather than a traditional Japanese restaurant specializing in tonkatsu. The meat and shrimp quality were decent but fairly average overall. Nothing to really complain about, but also nothing especially memorable or rave-worthy.
