The food at Rumi's Kitchen is outstanding! We recently returned to the North Georgia area after a few years living elsewhere and went to the restaurant in Avalon. The food was everything we remembered! We went for lunch on a weekday; highly recommend making a reservation around this time. We had to wait even with one. Our only complaint was it is very, very noisy. We are looking forward to the re-opening of Sandy Springs. If the newly renovated restaurant follows its tradition, the food and atmosphere will be perfect for a quiet dinner for two, or celebration with family or a group of friends. Well worth the 40 mile drive for us. read more

Middle Eastern food represents a constant craving for me and my wife, and over the years we have returned to Rumi's kitchen multiple times to satisfy our craving for unique mezze, fresh tandoori bread, juicy kabobs, and perfect Persian rice. Our most recent meal there with my parents solidified it as one of our favorite places to eat in the area. We chose to dine at this original Sandy Springs location the weekend of Christmas, and the restaurant was packed with family celebrations large and small. The valet parking line looked a disaster, so we opted for street parking about 2 blocks away. The host escorted us to our table shortly after arrival and our waiter greeted us within a few minutes. We placed our orders and received our food at a comfortable pace. All the items we sampled tasted excellent. We opted for four small plates to start. The kashk bademjoon, with its savory fried eggplant, sweet fried onions, and rich whey topping, is a must order. We also enjoyed the zesty, tender and sweet carrots which arrived atop a schmear of tangy labneh. We always order the lamb hummus here and the creamy, lemony chickpea puree complimented the salty, spicy chunks of lamb sausage well. We shared two main courses among three people and we had enough for a meals worth of leftovers. While all of the kababs we have sampled here have been good, the tender, juicy, and expertly seasoned lamb koobideh deserves special mention. We opted to upgrade our rices to "adas polo" and enjoyed the addictive, fluffy grains of buttery basmati rice studded with sweet raisins and earthy lentils The always great service here stands out, and this visit was no exception. For example, our waiter overheard that we were celebrating an anniversary after we had received the check and discreetly dropped off complimentary baklava at our table to take home. He also coursed out the meal at a comfortable pace, kept drinks filled, and remained helpful and affable throughout the busy service. The trifecta of excellent food, service, and ambiance that Rumi's offers consistently earns it a place as one of our favorite spots in metro Atlanta and a must visit for fans of Middle Eastern flavors. read more

We have been to this restaurant multiple times and have been huge fans since it opened. It pains me to write this review honestly but last night visit was so disappointing that I had to say something. It was a Thursday dinner for a party of 3 (8/4/22) - me, my bf and his friend in town for a visit. Naturally, we wanted to show him a good time. Well, it didn't go nearly as planned. Our waitress was extremely spaced out all evening and it was impossible to get her attention even when she was literally passing by our table. We started off with drinks. She took our friend's order, then mine. I make a small conversation; she tells us she comes from Sandy Springs location etc. blah blah. She takes my bf's order, then goes back to our friend to take his drink order AGAIN. And she was writing stuff down... Drinks took forever, she claimed the bar was slammed. When we finally got our cocktails, they had perspiration all over the glassware as though they've been sitting at the bar sweating all this time. When we ordered another round later, she brought us completely wrong drinks. Seeing how long the process took, we tried to order apps and entrees, but it took some trying to get her to our table. We tried mushroom hummus for the app and it was really good. I asked if the duck entrée could be made with sauce on the side and was happy to learn that it was possible. Yay! Kudos to the chef for accommodating! My duck came with barberry rice and the sauce on the side. Absolutely delicious. I wasn't super hungry though, so I ate a couple of pieces of duck and decided to take home the rest, anticipating a delicious lunch next day. Well, when we got home and I opened the bag to place food in the fridge, the duck was missing! Just the rice and the sauce :( The thing is, the food is great but the whole experience was such a letdown. This used to be our favorite restaurant in Midtown :( read more

1. The hostess seemed new and didn't know how to find our reservation. After looking for awhile she suddenly realized she could seat us anyway, even though my partner showed her his confirmed reservation. 2. The waiter initially forget about us and did not come to our table to get us drinks until after I went back to the hostess to ask her if we would have a water. 3. The food was good overall and after the waiter realized she'd forgotten about us and apologized they offered a complimentary dessert. The remainder of her service after the initial blip was excellent so it made up for the initial lapse in memory. The hostess offered no apology. The chicken wings (I can't remember the name on the menu) were really delicious and spicy. The Kebob was good but I don't think I'd order it again. I needed the sauce from the chicken wings to really enjoy it. read more

I went here with a large group the other day, and we had such a great time! The service was amazing--you can tell they really know how to handle a packed restaurant. Even though it was busy, the staff was incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The food and drinks were both great! I ordered the beef kabob with a side of pickled veggies, and it was super tasty. Everyone in our group enjoyed their meals. The decor was also really nice and added to the welcoming atmosphere. It's definitely a place I'd recommend and would love to go back to! read more

The only reason why I'm giving it 2 stars is because the service. Was not up to par. And it was horrible, but let me say this the food was phenomenal. We were the third table to sit down when they first opened, but the last table for 2 hours to even get service to get our food and the management noticed the issues but never addressed it until the last minute. I feel that they could have gave us or copped our food versus just given us a $50 gift card. That we didn't even get a chance to use there. Cause it was for your next time coming. To dine read more

We came to Rumi's for a birthday dinner. They have valet parking which helps out a lot because there is not parking in the area. A couple of us were early, so we sat at the bar and ordered a drink until the birthday girl arrived. The bartender was very nice and attentive. When we were seated at the table, the server gave us waters and time to look over the menu. We all ordered different things from lamb, kabobs, to salmon. The food came out in large portions, but was just ok. The salmon was a little on the dry side. I expected the food to be a lot better than it was. read more

It doesn't get much better than Rumi's in terms of Persian food. It's one of my Persian in laws' favorite places to eat and I'm told the bread is some of the best they've ever had. Personally, I think the Koobideh Kabob is one of the better items on the menu. The grilled shrimp is also fantastic. You really can't go wrong with anything here. Also, we have had Rumi's cater a number of events for our family over the years include a whole grilled lamb which was mind blowing. Cannot recommend Rumi's enough. read more

Very busy Persian place in Atlanta. The food was so good that I invited the team out to dinner the next evening. Went there my last two nights in Atlanta and it didn't disappoint. Great atmosphere but slow service. All in all it was a great time both outings. Sat on the bar the first night because it was so busy then I reserved a table the following night. Unfortunately they were out of the infamous Persian lamb shank that week so I couldn't order that. Ordered quite a few dishes over the course of two evenings and the food was spectacular. Each table got bread and some light bites to start. ordered various grilled options but the dish that took me by surprise was the grilled shrimp. massive shrimp!! Chicken Barg 4/5 - chicken was great but the rice wasn't flavorful Lamb kabob 5/5 Dolmeh 5/5 Badjenoon 4/5 Persian ice cream sandwich - rich in saffron but I loved it 5/5 Cardamom cake 5/5 read more

Rumi's Kitchen in Sandy Springs has great Persian cuisine for takeout or dine in, with both a covered patio and chic indoor seating area. They have some of the best Persian saffron basmati rice I've ever had, and I also enjoyed both the Roasted Salmon Fillet and Soltani Beef Kabob. Next time I need to try the Watermelon Salad I saw someone enjoying at the bar when we went in for pickup. This refreshing looking salad has crushed cucumber, charred shallot, & feta goat cheese. The only disappointment thing was that the black bottom of my plastic container was cracked and so it leaked in the bag. read more

Went to Rumis Kitchen for dinner and it was so good we had to go back for lunch the next day. Only had one night in Atlanta or we would have gone back again too. My boyfriend and I split the lamb kabob and smoked salmon hummus. Best lamb ever and also great hummus/salmon. Also the eggplant is super good... best eggplant ever. Good portions. Also I like how every table gets complimentary sparkling water, naan, radishes, cheese, etc. We got it with olive oil and garlic yogurt sauce on the side. Very delicious and sprinkle the pink seasoning on top too. Everything came on otter sized plates. For dessert I had Baklava and it was the best baklava ever. Pistachios, not walnuts. Have it with the cardamom ice cream. My boyfriend said this is his favorite restaurant ever. I'm not sure if it's my favorite ever I would really have to think about that more but definitely top three. I will think about this meal very often for the rest of my life. Please open in Charlotte. We love this restaurant. read more

This super elegant spot deserves a spot on your list! It's Persian food, known for their kabobs. We ordered the falafel, chicken kabobs & lamb kabobs but all of this was so much food for two people! We took half of it home. All delicious flavors and very fresh tasting. My chicken was a little tough but the citrus flavor was very refreshing. Overall great food, great drinks, great service! read more

When I reached out to my friend who used to live in Atlanta for restaurant recommendations, he immediately said "you have got to go to Rumi's." I trust him when it comes to good food, so I immediately made a reservation on Open Table. Our group was excited to enjoy some Peruvian cuisine as it is not something we have much of in our hometown. The joint was jumping on a Saturday night. I do love an open kitchen concept so you can see all the action. The decor was simple with some key pieces and greenery and large windows allowing light to shine in before it got fully dark. The table settings were classic and attractive with some ambiance lighting. To start things off. I indulged in the Persian Sunset (bourbon, ginger, fresh ginger, apricot jam) cocktail with a complementary small plate of pita type bread, cheese, walnuts, olives radish, and herbs. My husband got a different drink originally, but switched to this as he agreed it was real good. We crushed through the bread quickly, and were thrilled that they would bring us more to enjoy with our food. Our table had trouble settling on just a couple appetizers from the "Taste" section. But in the end went with the Dukkah roasted carrots (hazelnut, sesame seed, labneh), mirza ghasemi (smoked eggplant, tomato, garlic), and hummus (ground chickpea with green tahini & olive oil). The hummus was very creamy and enjoyable. While the mirza ghasemi didn't look very attractive, the flavor was great. Not sure if I have ever had smoked eggplant before but would like to have it again. The carrots took a long time to come from the kitchen, but they were nicely roasted and delicious. The labneh (yogurt with za'atar spices) underneath was great and I liked the additional crunch from the nuts. The roasted carrots were my favorite of the three. For entrees (or "Feast" based off their menu titling) I settled on the Chinjeh Lubia Polo (beef sirloin kabob, garlic yogurt, braised green bean & tomato basmati rice). Woah this was a lot of food, especially rice. I wasn't sure what the combination of green bean and tomato with rice would taste like, but turns out atleast in this case-pretty great. The sirloin was also cooked to perfection and the spice blend on it was so good. Always happy for more naan and the garlic yogurt dipping sauce was yum. I really enjoyed my dish and was glad I tried something I knew I would mispronounce, but probably would be good. My husband got the Lamb Shank (Persian lime, turmeric, dill & fava bean saffron basmati rice). Again, huge portions. The meat fell right off the bone at it should and had great flavor. I like that each basmati rice side was a prepared little different with various ingredients to go with the protein. He also ordered a Darjeeling Creme Brulee (darjeeling tea, cardamom, caramelized sugar) for dessert. I was so incredibly full, but still snagged a couple bites. I can't say I liked it more than a OG creme brûlée, but appreciated their Peruvian spin on this dessert. We had a waitress and an assistance waiter taking care of our table. All of the waitstaff was very personable and knowledgeable about the food on all questions we asked. Service was a little hit or miss at times as they were so incredibly busy. But, we just enjoyed each other's company and honestly having things a little spread out wasn't so bad. Also, they do valet parking at the location (as parking quite scarce). This is a bit of a foreign concept for us, but the process was very smooth. I think it cost like $2, plus whatever you tip. The line at the end of the night to get our car back moved very quickly. If someone asked me where to go in Atlanta for food, I would join my friend's recommendationto me and also say Rumi's! read more

We came on a Sunday to celebrate a birthday!! We were seated very quickly. We got the pita and hummus with the tasting platter. We got the wings as well as an appetizer. The wings were amazing and the hummus was also amazing. They were also really great at bringing us more pita if we ran out. One thing was we had to ask them to turn their ac on, because it got quite uncomfortable where we were sitting. For the main we shared the chicken and lamb kabobs. Both were very tender and great!! Despite the Ac, our food and service was really great!! read more

Love the food, the ambiance, and the service. Have been to Rumi's and always look forward to go back!

Delicious!! Haven't had much Persian food before but after this experience I will definitely be trying out more Persian cuisine. Waiter was very gracious and attentive and did well explaining the dishes and answering all our questions. Food was also very delicious. Rice was not too flavorful but the tender beef kabob made up for it. Love this spot and will return even I visit Atlanta again. read more

Good place. Nice vibes. It's big space! Tuesday night was packed like a weekend. Crazy. Expectations run high with a crowd like that! Started with the smoked eggplant - delicious!

This place is fantastic!!! I've passed Rumi's several times and finally decided to give it a try last Saturday. There is valet parking so it's convenient to park (it was cheap, maybe like 2 or 3 bucks but definitely tip the valet guys!) When you step inside it's super busy but well organized and beautifully decorated. We had a reservation and were seated swiftly with quick attention from our waiter. Speaking of waiter, my waiter was Marcus (like Nieman), and he was FANTASTIC! Certainly a highlight of my visit, he was super attentive and gave great explanations on the dishes and provided recommendations when asked. Everything he said was spot on as everyone from our table ordered the dishes that were perfect for them. Our entire group of 4 adored Marcus and would ask for him personally if we go back. For food I ordered the eggplant appetizer Kashk Badnjn and the Baghali rice, everything I had was super tasty and well flavored. The complementary dishes with bread, herbs, radishes, walnuts, and cheese were lovely. All super fresh ingredients and they paired well with everything. At the end of the night we shared baklava and ice cream as dessert and it was all on point. I forgot what type of ice cream it was but it was the best pairing for the baklava! I was worried its be too sweet together but it was just right. Overall super stellar experience. read more

Here on a quick trip and OH MY GOODNESS! the slightly sweet glaze on the lamb ribs was life changing. Love the atmosphere, although it's probably not for you if you're looking for a quieter dinner. The light fixtures were stunning and every food item was amazing. The texture of the hummus was the creamiest I've EVER seen, and it tasted fresh. The service was amazing and made up for the long wait time. The roasted egg plant and corn ribs were also phenomenal. This will be my new go to anytime I'm in Atlanta. read more

One of my favorite places to get Middle Eastern food. I've even brought my friends and family here who also enjoyed the food. I've had the joojeh kabob and lamb chops on different occasions which were flavorful. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because the cornish hen needs to be cooked just a few minutes longer. The first two times I came here, the joojeh kabob was a bit red near the bone. The second time it occurred, I requested if they can cook it longer. They ended up making me a completely new meal at no charge; they even gave us free desserts for the inconvenience which was appreciated. I still went back to the restaurant after that because the food is really good. Pros: - Delicious food/drinks and decent sized portions - Attentive waiters - Nice ambiance - Large restaurant - $3 valet parking - Good for both large and small parties read more

Food is tasty. The location in Alpharetta is very nice as well. They have these sodas that they make with their own flavorings and they are a little bit watered down tasting for me, but the food and cocktails are very good. Their absolute best dessert in my option is the Darjeeling tea crème brûlée. Crème brûlée seems to taste the same everywhere but this one is a bit different with the tea flavor, and I crave it once in a while. read more

Thai place was pretty good although my companion wasn't too pleased with their lamb shank. They said the gravy was delicious but it wasn't as tender as they had hoped. My favorite was the smoke eggplant app, similar to baba ganoush but it's red. I could eat that for DAYS. So yummy. My veggie stew was good too though they had limited vegan options. First time trying Persian food. The rice was okay albeit I'm not a rice fan but I indulged. Overall I would return even if only for the delicious eggplant. read more

It's clear that Rumi's is run with passion, integrity, and a true dedication to creating a meaningful dining experience. The food... absolutely exceptional. The thoughtful presentation make every bite memorable. My husband & I love the Chicken Barg & Beef Kobideh. All Their rice dishes are SoO yummy, especially the Shirin Polo! The beautiful smiles, and the special warm welcome at the reception by Angela & Patan (The Avalon) are to Live for! We usually ask for Crystal to be our server, @ Sandy Springs or Colony Square. She makes our dining experience like a Seven Star Royal Treat. We appreciate all you very beautiful ladies SoO much. Thank you. Every time, my husband & I leave Rumi's @ all locations.. We're already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommended! read more

Rumi's is one of the best Persian spots in Atlanta and thankfully only 15 minutes away from where I live. The restaurant is pretty easy to find off Roswell road, but be aware that there is only $2 valet parking available. Usually, it's also always a good idea to have a reservation because it gets pretty packed most nights. Their entrees consist of various kebabs, vegetables, or grilled meat along with some sort of rice. My favorite one is the slotani kebab with two different types of meats and their amazing buttery saffron rice. The meats are always seasoned perfectly, and I love the flavor of the rice. It seems a bit expensive since it's around $25-$35 per plate, but you can definitely get a couple of meals in with just one plate. If you're in the area, I would highly recommend coming to rumi's to get your Persian fix in! read more

We have been frequenting Rumi's for over 10 years and the consistency in food, ambiance and service is what keeps us as regular customers. I recommend sitting in the "front" dining area for a quieter experience if conducting business dinners or on a date night. Also, this last visit, we had exceptional service from a new server, Dani. She was attentive with just the right amount of check ins. Friendly but not overly. And kind. All servers are top notch but she stood out this time (enough for me to write an updated review ;) Keep the fantastic work up, Rumi's! Love this original location the best, after all these years. read more

Here for my sister's birthday lunch! The gworls are saying this place is casual and I guessss you can come in a t-shirt and short but who wanna do that?? Okay so disclaimer. Everything is an upchargeeeeeeee!? And typically I think that's so silly. Especially if the protein isn't wild caught (seafood). I mean sheesh, adding salmon to a salad? Nah you can't do that. BUT regardless of that hunny we ordered food :)) I will say that I do like the vibe of the place. It does feel very light, airy, and it had a great color scheme. The food itself, while it didn't change my entire life, was pretty good. We really enjoyed the beginning palate cleanser of herbs, radishes, olives, and walnuts along with the pita. I personally got the two different kinds of hummus, one had smoked salmon and the other one had falafel with veggies and tahini. My sister's grilled salmon, came in three fillets and it was so succulent and well cooked. The seasoning was lacking. I will definitely give this place a three out of five simply because there wasn't anything on the menu that changed any of our lives at the table. Until we got to dessert. Faloodeh. What a lovely dessert. It's consisted of cooked thin rice noodles, rosewater, lemon, and simple syrup essentially. It was the most confusing, different but completely catch you off guard delicious dessert. Make sure you guys ask for it. Trust me. read more

Hands-down my top picks in Atlanta! We've been to their Sandy Springs locations and Alpharetta location and both were amazing! As soon as you walk in, you'll notice the beautiful bar and open kitchen. I love how lively and it is and always know my food is served hot and fresh. The service is always welcoming and attentive. They do get busy so I recommend making a reservation. Appetizers: hummus and smoked eggplant (mirza ghasemi) are must-haves! They're my favorites in Atlanta! The eggplant has a great savory and smoky flavor and you'll devour it with the basket of pita bread. Entrees: my go-to everytime is the chilean sea bass. Super juicy and buttery with the perfect char. It's just heavenly. We've also tried the grilled shrimp, which again, love the char and the feta cream sauce, but a little overpriced in my opinion. Would also consider trying the chicken kabobs, very juicy and flavorful and reasonably priced and the lamb rack (they default it to medium-well, but my personal preference for lamb is well done so had to specifically ask for that). Overall highly recommend! We always come back to Rumi's to celebrate or when we have friends in town. read more

Everything at Rumi's is simply perfect. The decor is absolutely beautiful and so high end. Even as the crowd grew throughout our meal the noise level never made it hard to have a conversation. The tables can be seated closely together, especially for the tables with a bench on one side. The service is fantastic and nears Michelin level. Staff is knowledgeable about the menu, service is fast without feeling rushed and everyone I interacted with was pleasant. They have a GREAT non-alcoholic drink menu. We had a Spritz n Giggles (NA Aperol Spritz) that was fantastic and had a great presentation. The chicken kabobs were fantastic and the rice was incredible. Additionally the potatoes were cooked uniquely with a harder outside but still perfectly soft inside and seasoned well. The portions are huge and you'll definitely be taking leftovers home! I was worried about trying a new cuisine as I don't handle spice well and Rumi's food was perfectly seasoned and full of flavor without being "spicy". Overall, loved my experience here and will be back with friends and family! read more

The food was great. The taste was amazing. I would say, if you're going to go, do anything with lamb. Soooo good. The wings were great also. They have a wide variety of drinks as well. I had an espresso martini and it was delicious. I did have tequila in my espresso martini and I am a tequila drinker so it fit what I was looking for. The service was amazing. They are patient and ask about allergies. I have a family member with nut allergies, and they were very accommodating with every dish making sure that none of the allergies were touching the plates. So I appreciate that greatly. The ambience is very nice. Very middle upscale type environment. I dressed in sweatpants and a jersey, and I was definitely underdressed for the way everyone else was. But I didn't feel like I was out of place. I must warn that it is on the expensive side. You can probably get away with getting a couple of appetizers and mixing up plates if you're in a group of three or more. That would cut the cost a little. But it is on the expensive side . read more

I loved Rumi's Kitchen! This was the second time I went (I didn't really enjoy my food the first time because I had the chicken kabob), but this time I had the Chinjeh Lubia Polo and I loved it so much--10/10! The meals are pretty expensive, but the portion sizes are really good and fill you up. I also tried the baklava, which was to die for. It was so flaky and sweet, and the ice cream paired so well with it! For dessert, it was $12 and very filling. I went on a Thursday night without a reservation, but I would recommend one because it was packed for dinner. The service was great, and the restaurant is beautiful. Parking is $2, but there are free parking spots about a 5-minute walk away. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a nice date night or family dinner! read more

We came here for Father's Day and it was such a good pick. The hype is DEFINITELY real! The valet is only $2 with tip, great price. I would 100% make a reservation before coming because the restaurant was packed to the brim and groups of people were waiting outside. The food was great and the service was phenomenal. Our waitress, Shireen, was a pleasure. She was kind and listened to our tastes and recommended things that matched our palate. She was willing to accommodate with my cousin being gluten free and even brought out some extra cucumber and tomatoes for her to eat with the hummus instead of naan. It was sweet. I think the best part of the meal was the Fattoush salad and the Hummus with smoked salmon, those two are MUST tries. The meal itself was tasty, especially the chicken barg. The desserts were also very interesting! The saffron icecream was sweet but not overbearing and the wafers were the perfect addition. The cardamom cake was a little powerful but with the vanilla icecream added the right balanxe! I hope to come back and try different things on the menu one day. read more
