Zakia Modern Lebanese

★★★★☆ 4.2 (183)

"I had nevet heard of this place but my colleagues were having a happy hour here. I had no expectations but upon entering, I was truly impressed. The decor is beautiful and the staff is really attentive. We had a private room with a private bartender/waiter. I wish I had gotten his name. He was amazing. He remembered all of our drinks and kept them coming. We had apps laid out buffet style but he also made sure to walk around with trays.I loved the food. I tried the chicken skewer, babaganoush, cheese rolls and a few other items. Everything was uniquely made and had good flavors. I look forward to coming back with friends."

Mezza Luna Pasta and Seafood - Marietta

★★★★☆ 4.3 (282) • $$

"We found this restaurant on Yelp since it has such amazing reviews!! The reviews don't lie!! This restaurant is as amazing as it sounds. We started with complimentary bread which was served hot and soft. Right then I knew our experience would be a positive one! Everyone at our table of 6 enjoyed their meals. I ordered the Lasagna and it was a perfect portion of deliciousness. I would highly recommend it! The dishes here are a bit more expensive then other Italian restaurants but the quality of the food and complimentary bread make up for it. The restaurant is also very modern looking. They truly care about making your dining experience special. I highly recommend trying this restaurant! Our server was super sweet and made the toddlers of our table a priority."

R & C Kitchen

★★★★☆ 3.7 (14)

"After skipping out on dinner from Rays on the River, we decided to celebrate my birthday at R&C kitchen. Before we went, I looked at the reviews and was feeling a bit discouraged because usually they don't lie. However, I am glad we gave the restaurant the benefit of the doubt and decided to try it out anyway.Jackson was our server and took excellent care of us. He answered any questions we had and even went as far as taking our photos for memories! The ambience was relaxed and aesthetically pleasing. They have 2 different restaurants! The bottom floor is more of fine dining and the rooftop is a bar so the food is different at both places. Reservations are recommended but not needed. The only thing I didn't like were the cocktails from the rooftop! We had the Q Melon & the triple play. They were bitter drinks. We will come check them out for brunch and more dinner dates!"

Volare Bistro

★★★★★ 4.5 (476) • $$$

"Very nice hidden gem in Hapeville. Street Parking and there is also a parking lot. I went to Volare with coworkers for dinner...it was a great choice. Excellent customer service...Yummy appetizers and food. We had all of the appetizers on the menu ...ALL yummy even the mussels. Sorry no pics of the appetizers...we were hungry lol I had Tetrazzini Pasta with Salmon. Delicious Perfect atmosphere for an after work dinner and drinks. They have a good wine and beer selection.It was a bit hazy inside and I think that was because of the kitchen. Overall experience Enjoyed myself"

Bay Breeze Seafood Restaurant

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (145)

"We have lived in the area for 24 years but just visited this restaurant that has been in business for 13 years. It was relatively busy at 7:30pm on a Friday night. Amy was our very attentive and friendly server. We enjoyed our house salad, Caesar salad, steak and snow crab, and salmon. All were well cooked, seasoned, and warm. As a heads up, they serve Mayo , cocktail sauce etc, in plastic containers or packages. The only improvement is that the decor was slightly outdated and perhaps cluttered."

Silla Del Toro

★★★★☆ 4.4 (183) • $$

"Absolutely amazing restaurant. I took my friend here for her birthday dinner. Just a small little something. Restaurant is beautifully decorated. Not really big inside. Very intimate just the way I like it. The staff was so nice and very informative. The manager and my waiter gave a lot of great information. This is a traditional Spanish tapas restaurant. So small plates with a peck big flavor. My friend and I shared everything and here's what we got. * Calamari, lamb, chops, chicken, empanadas, shrimp, paella, two cocktails each (one Prado, daisy, and one trader's share each) and finished up with the butter toffee cake. So we got all that food and 4 drinks for $140. I highly recommend checking this place out. I know they also have another location that has just opened out towards North Druid Hills area. I definitely give this a 10 out of 10!"

"To add on to my original review, this location is not selective about your attire. It's come as you are, distressed denim and all. This adds to the appeal for me. When I want to dress up, I'm not out of place and when I want to dress down, I'm not out of place. Win/win. The managers Chris and Michael are Amazing! Servers Kenneth, Josh, and Asia are top tier. Cannot go wrong here!"

Casa Balam

★★★★☆ 3.9 (57)

"Dear Casa Balam- Whomever is running your instagram & social media presence deserves a raise. We were one of the first to find your restaurant the second week ya'll opened. I'm rating the overall experience 3/5, don't take it too personally, it was only your second week opened. The menu was overwhelming with the amount of options. We all love options, but it was giving Cheesecake Factory encyclopedia vibes. I'll pass on the ceviche next time around, to be honest it was bland, but the presentation was cute. For our mains, my husband and I had the tacos- one of nearly each- and we have 0 complaints. They were delicious! The service was great, the hostess were warm & welcoming. Cocktails were wonderful, we enjoyed sipping on our margaritas while taking in the interior design. It was tastefully decorated. It's giving Tulum vibes. (however, I'd swap out the harsh bright white lights in the accent wall with warmer lighting to amplify the vibes & attract more selfies to show it off) We look forward to returning at the end of the summer!"

Mezza Luna

"My husband and I came here on an early Tuesday night before a Brave's game. It was our first time and we were delighted with the staff, quality of food, and speed of service. Our waiter, Ricky, was fast and efficient and made great recommendations. I ordered the eggplant parmigiana and it was the best I have eaten in Atlanta! My husband ordered the special, butternut squash ravioli with fried lobster. We also ordered calamari for an appetizer which was tasty. They also served complimentary cubed foccaccio which I thought was an interesting touch. Next time I am back, I will try dessert! This is a lovely place for date night or an evening with family. I would recommend reservations online as it is a small, intimate restaurant."

Kiosco Marietta Square

★★★★★ 4.5 (429) • $$

"My family and I decided to go to Kiosco on a whim to start our weekend off as the reviews were great and the food looked delicious. This originally was a Cuban restaurant, but it has since changed and they now serve Mediterranean cuisine. A lot of people recommended making a reservation and I recommend you to as well as it's a super small spot.Although the restaraunt is small, the space is so quaint and cute. They have a small bar in which you can sit at, along with regular seating. The space has low lights at night for dinner and really was a relaxing ambiance.On arrival, our table wasn't ready yet, but we were seated at the bar I. Which we could order drinks and appetizers while we waited. The party we were waiting on took a bit longer than the staff expected and they were very accommodating. They made sure to check in with us and even provided us an appetizer on the house. We really appreciated the customer service. Although we waited, we didn't mind because the staff made sure we were well taken care off and really provided exceptional customer service throughout the whole night.Now let's get on to the food and drinks. Everything was absolutely amazing!!! I can't stress how good everything we had was. The appetizer we had was the mezzo trio which had a beetroot humus, roasted red pepper feta, and tzatziki with house made pita bread. The roasted red pepper feta was the star of the table. We also ordered the spanakopita which was like a creamed spinach filling with ooey gooey cheese and was delicious. I could go on and on about each dish in detail, but I'll spare y'all lol. Just know it was all great and you can't go wrong with anything. I loved my pulled beef! It was so tender and seasoned very well. The drinks were also delicious and everyone enjoyed their drinks. The pink lady drink was refreshing. The espresso martini, you could tell they made the espresso fresh and was a great night cap to end my meal.Price wise it was a bit pricey as it all added up, but definitely worth it. I definitely will be back as I'd love to also try their breakfast one day."

Carbonara Trattoria

★★★★☆ 3.7 (179) • $$

"Nice little Italian restaurant in dunwoody. I made a reservation to sit at the bar. I loved that I could reserve a seat at the bar since most places consider the bar first come, first serve. I tried the fried green tomatoes and the brazino w/ asparagus, olives and potatoes. Both were really good and not over done. The bartender was really nice and even played some old school music as it got later.This place is located in a plaza with other restaurants and businesses so there is plenty of parking. Although not required, I do reccomend a reservation."

L'Thai Organic Cuisine & Wine Bar - Smyrna

★★★★☆ 3.5 (264) • $$

"I can't believe this was our first visit to L'Thai when we live mere minutes away. The restaurant is located a few blocks deep in the West Village complex, with some street parking and free covered parking just around the corner from the restaurant. Inside, the space was quiet and even serene when we arrived on a Sunday afternoon. I was surprised to see that the fried calamari was listed as gluten-free on the menu, since most breaded seafood isn't. While tasty, the batter was a little crumbly and my husband, who prefers his calamari on the smaller side, was a little weirded out by what he called "the big, juicy squid rings". The serving size was less than what we would have preferred, but given the price, it's all right as a starter. Our entrees were where L'Thai shined. The husband's pad woon sen was tasty - hot, well-seasoned glass noodles with good hunks of chicken throughout. While his dish was great, we both agreed my order of the yellow crispy chicken reigned supreme at the table - a crispy filet of chicken breast atop a fragrant, vegetable-specked puddle of yellow curry. The fresh (gluten-free) coating stayed crisp as I dragged happy spoonfuls of rice through the sauce until every last drop was consumed. As an added plus, our meal ended up being far cheaper than we expected it would. The menus don't currently have prices because the owners are in the midst of reprinting them. Our server offered to let us know exact prices if we needed, but we decided this would be a fun guessing exercise. When we got the check, our jaws dropped at how economical our meal had been, especially given the taste and the sublime service we'd received. Side note: There's a funny dress code here of no gym shorts or sports wear. I haven't seen it enforced, but there's clear signage out front and figured you should know if visiting."

Lucian Books and Wine

★★★★☆ 4.2 (89)

"This highly recommended Buckhead spot is one of my faves in Atlanta. It's the perfect place for someone like me who enjoys books that you find at Rizzoli Books and knows a bit about wine varietals. I found myself here on a random afternoon over a glass of Granacha and I do not have a single regret. It was the kind of self care that I entertain. They offer lunch, afternoon service and dinner. Make reservations if you want a meal, or just afternoon stroll in like I did. I found myself beautifully set up at the bar. Be prepared to be amongst some of the finest purveyors of food and drink in Atlanta. The staff will make you feel like they've been waiting all day for your arrival. You will feel like you've entered an ethereal children's boom that is everything refined adult as you linger as long as you'd like. See website for more details and hours."

"So this place was pretty dope!We got sat immediately, and the service was super nice. The owners family was there eating so we actually got to talk to them as well, and they gave some great suggestions as well as general conversation. I had the chicken shawarma, hummus, and a cookies and cream type dessert (not what you are thinking it would be though). The shawarma was great! It wasn't like back in MI, but it was solid. It was flavorful and plenty of a good portion size. The hummus was really good too! I would have dipped my finger in it if it wasn't frowned upon lol. The dessert, it was unorthodox... but at the end of the day it was delicious af! It was a cream based dessert, ice cream and cookies! I am not a fan but I would have ordered another if I wasn't already satisfied lol.When in the area, I would definitely and hands down come back."

MTH Pizza

★★★★☆ 4.3 (126) • $$

"Definitely want to do a "do over" with this spot! I ordered the Chicken pizza and was not a huge fan of it, but the services was great- a bunch of super friendly people! The restaurant gives off a good vibe, very clean and welcoming. I will have to try something else the next time."

Postino Buckhead

★★★★☆ 4.4 (247) • $$

"Small parking lot in the front and shared parking lot in the back.The bar is huge and you can sit inside or outside. I heard that this building use to be a Blockbuster video store so that is why VHS tapes are decorated on the walls.Staff is extremely friendly and helpful.I ordered the $6 pitcher of beer. This time the two rotating options were a light Peach beer and a Mango IPA. The light Peach beer tasted similar to all light beers with a slight Peach aftertaste. The Mango IPA was sweet and had a great taste throughout.I got a Bruschetta boar. I tried both Bruschetta Board options. It was the Mountain berry, French onion, Salami and pesto, and Salmon and pesto. I prefer the Mountain berry over the French onion for the July battle of the bruschetta but I would be happy with either."

Boxcar

★★★★☆ 4 (361) • $$

"I'm a fan. I have never had anything here that was not good. I may not have cared for the preparation but I don't think I have ever had anything overcooked, undercooked, etc. They have decent sized menu that should satisfy a variety of cravings. I like the vagabond Sandwich, the turkey sandwich, the wings and the Cobb salad. Hubby likes the burgers, grilled cheese, turkey chili. Most of what we have tried over the years we enjoyed and again- if we didn't it just wasn't to our liking. Service is always good. Busy enough to people watch but not a crazy wait. Indoor and outdoor seating. Spacious. Decent lighting. Private lot parking. Access to walk the Beltline to walk off calories when you finish. What's not to like???! Go! I wish the sandwiches came with a side but it keeps you from eating more than you should I guess. I actually don't like their regular fries and I'm not willing to pay 6.00 for sweet potato fries BUT the last time I did the serving was huge so worth sharing.... I digress. Just go. And bring someone to split the side dishes."

Amalfi Cucina & Mercato - Buckhead

★★★★☆ 4 (125) • $$

"We had a party of 4 for dinner on Saturday, 1/20/24, at 5:30 pm. The restaurant is really cute. Good date-like atmosphere.We split 2 appetizers between the 4 of us and each got our own entree. My friend and I shared our 2 entrees. Here's what I had:- Mozzarella en Carrozza ($12): Perfectly crispy. Very good.- Eggplant Parmigiana Melanzane ($15): A little cold. The eggplant wasn't fried to our liking. Definitely not worth $15. Pass.- Spicy Sicilian Pizza with ricotta-filled crust ($17 + $5): We were told we could do any pizza and make the crust ricotta-filled. The amount of ricotta in each slice was the miniature-est dollop. We felt like it was a ripoff. The actual pizza was decent though!- Rigatoni di Napoli ($22): This was heavy, but I enjoyed it. Others in my party weren't as keen on it though.My friend got the Chicken Alfredo ($26) and didn't like it at all.Overall, we had high hopes, but were a little disappointed. We wouldn't go back."

Nan Thai Fine Dining

★★★★☆ 4.1 (710) • $$$

"The service was excellent. Food was great. I do wish the server would have informed us that the special was all fried. I didn't like that at all and nor did my guest. I would return again but will be mindful to ask how the food is prepared. Beautifully appointed restaurant that exudes sophistication."

M Bar Ultra Lounge

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (68)

"While driving down Auburn Ave if you blink you will miss the M Bar, so make sure you keep your eyes open. If you are looking for a place to hear good music, have good drinks , and decent food this is your spot. M Bar is a true lounge. This venue is a tiny unsuspecting gem in the middle of the block. The atmosphere is chic and sexy. There are projectors and TVs all over showing a classic movie which added to the chill ambiance while I listened to the DJ play everything I like. The furniture is simple and modern it has a upscale look.The staff and management were extremely friendly and personable. Our waitress was very attentive we didn't have to wait long for our drinks and the staff made sure your area stayed clean of empty glasses and plates. During my visit my cousin knocked a drink over on the table and without even looking for her in seconds the waitress was there to clean it up. The crowd was sophisticated and diverse. The one aspect of my visit which impressed me the most was how clean the restrooms were. There was no cover to get into the M Bar, but prices are a tad on the high end for food, and hookah. The average cost for a glass of wine is definitely more expensive here than most places. Liquor prices are average. Classy crowd, awesome dj and clean bathrooms will definitely have me coming back soon."

The Cape Restaurant and Beach Bar

★★★★☆ 4.1 (138)

"I love the upscale coastal décor but it still feels comfortable. The décor is clean and fresh but eclectic with lots of color. I've visited The Cape twice and the staff is always nice and willing to share their favorite dishes. I've tried a lot of dishes so here we go:Tuna tataki- The tuna is fresh and the dish had a nice hit of acid I appreciatedCrab dip- Nice and creamy and I love the choice of gruyere cheeseMussels- Mussels can get pretty basic so I won't say I loved them but the sauce had a really nice flavorOstrich sliders- This may be the one dish I didn't care for. It needed a little more flavor and the ostrich was dryHummus- One of the best I've hadSpicy tuna sushi roll- I didn't care for the sriracha but it's a good rollScottish grilled salmon- Sooo good and the addition of the capers and olives give it a Mediterranean flavor that I loved.This restaurant isn't close to me but I don't mind the drive for this kind of food and service."

F & B Atlanta

★★★★☆ 3.6 (173) • $$$

"F&B Atl French Bistro, has been a neighborhood gem for over 3 years. This French Bistro, Ambiance is very nice, located in Buckhead. Lets talk about how good the food taste. I ordered the Seared Trout & a side of Pomme Frites. My dish was fresh to order, delicious along with great service. F&B offers handcrafted cocktails & a great wine selection. F&B is a great place for date night, lunch or dinner. They offer limited patio seating & around the Holidays, live entertainment. Valet or Garage parking for a fee. I had the best experience. Go check them out."

Cru

★★★★☆ 3.6 (200)

"This place is the only place I go to in the Battery. In general, the Battery has great offerings but I tend to not like the overly crowded spots and lack of good parking.CRU is an excellent option (on non-game days) for after work happy hours. The wine selection is top notch. The bites they offer for food is good (not overly delicious or a meal portion but good to nibble on).Always appreciate the friendly service as well."

Sotto Sotto

★★★★☆ 4.1 (809) • $$$

"I came here for my birthday dinner. Out of the lists of Italian restaurants, I landed on Sotto Sotto because of one specific dish. The Costoletta arlla Parmagiana. Yes, sign me up!Getting here wasn't too bad, but the parking was kind of confusing. If you're looking to park for yourself, there's a parking lot that you can park by yourself and the restaurant is right across the street. The street is off of Elizabeth St NE. So, I would definitely recommend to just park in that parking lot as it's easier than driving around and finding street parking. The restaurant doesn't validate parking, so keep that in mind. You will pay on the way out. The other option is parking valet, which is personal preference. The amount of walking in comparison is really not a huge distance.Walking in, it's a very cozy type of experience and atmosphere. The kitchen is small,they have a patio seating and also inside. There was a lot of staff when I visited. We ordered the charcuterie for starters. It was alright, I don't think it was worth the price as I think you could make a better charcuterie by buying meats and cheeses from Costco. It was just 3 tiny pieces of cheese, some mushrooms (which were the most flavorful), and a few meats. Also, the bread was limited as well, I didn't ask for more because I felt as if it would have been extra charge.For my main, as I said before, I got the Costoletta arlla Parmagiana. It's a breaded pan fried veal and then on top a tomato sauce along with some mozzarella. Yeah, if you can picture it, then you can taste it. It was good. It had flavor every bite, and it was filling. I would definitely recommend this dish if you're not looking to eat pasta.For dessert, we ordered their version of Tiramisu, the Dolce Al Mascarpone. It was alright. I think it was a bit small, and it was mostly all cream. Again, it doesn't beat a good tiramisu, but it wasn't bad. Overall, Sotto Sotto wasn't a bad experience. I enjoyed my main dish, however I think they fell flat for me when it came to the appetizer and the dessert. I did also get to try the clams that my wife was, and that was alright. I didn't have any of her pasta though so I can't say anything to that."

1920 Tavern

★★★★☆ 4 (551) • $$

"Made reservations for a small group on a Monday evening. Outdoor seating area was mostly filled, bar seating was limited as well. A hostess stand is located by the sidewalk.We were sat in the front area, against the wall. Here a banquette runs the length of the room with small, two-person tables and chairs on the opposite side. Our pushed together tables were set up waiting for us. After being seated by the hostess our waiter quickly stopped by to introduce themself and have a chat then left to give us time to look over the menu.As often happens with a group, we talked more than we perused the menu so our waiter had to come back a couple of times for our full order. In the mean time, we placed an order for beers and cocktails, and appetizers.The spinach artichoke dip is delicious. Creamy, chunks of artichoke, chips that hold up to the dip and just enough to clear out the bowl. Our waiter asked if we needed more chips, but we were scooping this dip out of the bowl, not just dipping them in, so they were plenty. I had one of their steak options for an entree. The cut was tender and well seasoned. It was cooked a bit more than I ordered and was offered a refire which I declined. Steak continues to cook once off the flame and it was pretty darn close so it was all good. Definitely a delicious meal. It comes with a side of gravy which is well seasoned and a nice addition. The Shepherds pie is chunks of beef with a vegetable mix in gravy covered in mashed potatoes and placed under a broiler. It was enjoyed by more than one person in our group.This restaurant has a casual feel with an upscale dining experience. Staff are friendly and experienced. Two women stopped by at different times to ask how things were going. The food was excellent and although tables are close, it is comfortable seating. A little more room for courses plus beverages and waters, plus silverware on the table top would be welcome.As the sun set outside, the interior lights were turned down and the restaurant filled up. Almost as if the lights going low triggered it, the restaurant got so loud I could no longer hear the person next to me never mind across the table. Luckily we had completed our meal and were ready to depart.With adult beverages, appetizer, entrees plus tip we spent around a hundred dollars per person. Do make a reservation. Paid parking lot is just a couple buildings up the road or try to find on street spot. This was a memorable, very nice evening out."

Atalian KITCHEN & BAR

★★★★☆ 4.2 (103)

"Yusuf was our server and he was fantastic. Very attentive and kind. We ordered a bottle of wine, got the risotto cheese appetizer, and split the chicken pesto and shrimp scampi pasta dishes. The appetizer had great flavor- if you're more than a pair, I'd recommend getting more than one- there were 2 pieces. The pesto pasta had great flavor, as did the scampi (more Alfredo-ish to me) but the pesto was the winner of the two in my opinion. We were also given bread, but the pasta was the real winner. It's an upstairs spot, but they did have an elevator. Smallish area, with a classy vibe. I'd definitely go back for more."

Southern National

★★★★★ 4.5 (39) • $$$

"What an amazing dinner and brunch experience in the Summerhill area of Atlanta! Southern National was a must-visit on my weekend trip to ATL. And as expected, the food and cocktails are award worthy and the service is fantastic. I also loved the music and ambiance. I literally ate DOWNNN and everything I tasted was remarkable and impeccably plated to boot. Faves: MusselsBrussels Duck (brunch)Prado (cocktail) Full disclosure: I've been a huge fan since I found the Southern National brand in Mobile, AL and while I could be biased, there's absolutely no need. Southern National is a well-oiled machine. I'm pleased to report that they've gone from great to greater. I'm so pleased to see that everything from the space and decor to the menu has evolved to even higher heights since the move, and the aesthetic and vibe fits Atlanta perfectly. Bravo! Wonderful job by the SN team and my compliments to the chef of all chefs. Cheers!"

"Check out Yalda's second location. It's located in the Osprey in West Midtown. What a beautiful resto with multiple spaces: indoor, upstairs, covered indoor/outdoor dining area, bar, bar area from patio! Just well done! Love the space!!! Food was delicious. Ivy was amazing and so helpful. We started with the hummus topped with lamb sharma. The crispy duck leg is a must try. The lamb chops were delicious. The fish of the day was a branzino. Atmosphere is a plus and food amazing!!!!!!! They validate your parking if you park in the garage."
