Elektra

Falafels were amazing 9/10, really good rich hummus base, some of the best falafel Ive ever had.Salmon was amazing 8.5/10, I love the sweet glaze and patty pan squash was super unique and amazing. I would've loved a slightly firmer crust, but cooked perfectly otherwise.Lamb skewer was great 8/10, I love lamb so obviously a hit with me, though a little more plain than the other dishes. But the rice pilaf...... oh my GOD it was the best rice dish I've had maybe ever 100000/10, super rich and a little sweet with amazing texture and the portion was HUGE enough for four people.The food overall was GREAT. Normally, I would take a half point off for small entree portions but the bartender told us the 6oz size before ordering so that was totally fine.

Was so excited to see this spot opened on Instagram earlier this week so I grabbed a reservation for Friday and it was so worth it!Elektra is on top of the new Forth Hotel in Old Fourth Ward Park. It sits next to the hotel/fitness club pool on the lower of the two rooftops.If 3 of the stars are for food, 1 is for ambiance, and 1 is for service, then all 5 were met. It's clean and bright in the restaurant, filled with natural light, light colored woods, and tons of plants. The service was fantastic from the hotel employee that walked us up to the elevators, the hostesses, and servers, to timing of the meal. This is not always an easy feat with a brand new restaurant, and this is one of the reasons I would highly recommend visiting.The menu isn't online so I posted a picture here for people to get an idea of what the menu is now, although it may continue to change because I had previously seen a different iteration of it downstairs in the hotel lobby. Food was great - we didn't have a bad bite. Between the 4 of us we tried to falafel, labneh, harissa fries, pilaf, honey Harrisa chicken, the shish kebab, and the prawns. The entrees don't come with rice/sides so you can order something to accompany them from the Mezze side of the menu if needed, which is what we did with the pilaf and fries (both are dishes plenty big to share).For me, the standouts were the falafel plate and the sauce that came with the honey harissa chicken... OMG. The chicken + pilaf (tangy + sweet due to the dried berries, yum) topped with that sauce was perfection! The other notable comment at our table was about the Shish Kebab that my friend said was so tender + cooked perfectly medium rare, which as everyone can guess is hard to achieve when cooking small pieces of steak. Lastly, MOST items on the menu are already naturally gluten free. Our server had a list ready for me with what I could order and it barely took any options off the menu.Overall - will definitely be returning. Possibly for brunch next time, as our server recommended!

Came here for dinner a couple weeks ago with a friend. It's tucked away in a hotel so make sure you know where you are going. It's a super cute spot and the service is great. It is a bit pricey for what you get. The mezze platter is definitely the way to go. We got the lamb skewer as well but it was quite small. The cocktails are great! Worth a try!

Went for breakfast and the food was great. Smoked Salmon bagel was my favorite dish. The service left a lot to be desired but they just opened so I'm sure they will figure it out.

I can't say enough great things about this restaurant. My husband and I decided to try during the week after a walk on the Atlanta Beltline. The service was superb! From our time entering the Forth Hotel to our waitress, Lauren, everyone was so pleasant. We didn't have reservations but there was not a wait time. I would suggest making reservations especially on the weekends! The ambience of the restaurant was amazing. I would describe it as upscale coastal. We decided to share a small plate for a quick power snack during our walk. We shared the HONEY HARISSA CHICKEN  with grilled pepper & tomato, sumac onions  and the HARISSA FRIES with garlic toum. The flavor was great and the chicken was grilled to perfection. I also loved the complimentary pickled vegetables. I can't wait to go back to try more dishes.

Love this place!! Hotel is absolutely gorgeous and restaurant is incredible. Staff were super nice and food was delicious!!!!!!

Such a great new spot on the beltline!! Very aesthetic and the food was delicious. Service was a bit slow but our waitress was very sweet and apologized many times. The prices felt very reasonable as well. Definitely going back soon!!

Incredible staff, amazing food, great networking. Poolside Mediterranean food is never a bad thing. Come enjoy the ambiance in Atlantas newest hotel

Visited here for the first time for a birthday dinner with friends! The nighttime environment was cozy and relaxing. Our waitress was very kind and attentive. We ordered the mezze platter to start and then additionally the harissa fries and the honey harissa chicken. The fries were thick, but crispy and the chicken was charred to perfection. The portions are a bit small for the price, but my friends thought the cocktails were wonderful! Super cute spot! Would definitely go back during the cooler season and try to get an outside seat!

New Mediterranean restaurant in the Forth Hotel in O4W. Amazing food, service and drinks. What's not to like. My fave was the falafel, Harrisa chicken and market fish which happened to be bronzino. The breakfast also wows. Try the lamb sausage and olive oil pancake. Definitely my favorite new ATL restaurant. Cozy and cool vibes.
