Zakia Modern Lebanese

The inside of this restaurant was pretty cool!I'd say this isn't a kid friendly restaurant, but the entire wait staff was so kind and accommodating. Shout out to the waiter who kept filling my toddlers sippy cup and making sure she always had bread lolWe had the plain hummus, whipped feta, and grilled octopus to start off. I wish we had gotten the specialty hummus, because the plain one was, well, plain hummus. The whipped feta was scarfed down by the toddler, but all of us got to try it and we loved it.The grilled octopus came with a carrot salad and the salad was an 11/10. The grilled octopus was good enough that the toddler tried it. We would order it again. Main course we got the mixed grill and the only thing bad we had to say about it was that the lady's was a little salty, but not so bad that we didn't eat it all and want more lolThe lamb chops had pomegranate on them. They're were great. The chicken had a sweet aftertaste and was perfectly cooked. All the veggies on the plate were delicious. An assortment of squash, zucchini, onions, different kinds of peppers, salad etcI wish we had gotten the fish, lamb hummus, and drinks for the table, but we had already had so much food that we couldn't finish it all.

I finally made it to Zakia, and it was just what I expected! First off, I've heard people say it's tricky to get there, but honestly, it wasn't bad at all. If you're coming from Lenox, just make a right onto Buckhead Loop. The road isn't marked, but you'll see it right across from the entrance to the Buckhead Loop Shops. If you're coming from the Piedmont area, turn into the Prominence development and follow the roadway. You can usually make a quick right to valet parking as soon as you enter, but it might be blocked off sometimes depending on when you go.Now, let's talk about the restaurant itself. The ambiance and interior design are spot on--elegant and detailed, just what you'd expect from a Lebanese restaurant. It's a little on the stuffy side, but the decor is immaculate. I think the "stuffy" vibe might come from the chairs. They're super comfortable and plush, but they kind of hold you in tightly.For starters, I had the Whipped Feta and the Lamb Hummus (Lahm Bi Ajeen). Both were delicious, but I've got to say, the lamb hummus at Gypsy Kitchen tastes even better, and Apartment 4B does a killer hummus but topped with Oxtail. We also ordered the Cheese Rolls, which were really tasty. They've got a huge variety of Cold and Hot Mezze options, so I'll definitely have to come back and try more--maybe grab a seat at the bar next time.For our mains, my friend ordered the Salmon Moghrabiyeh and loved it, and I went with the Filet Mignon Kabobs. The filet was cooked to absolute perfection!Last but not least, the service was top-notch from start to finish. The host was friendly and attentive, and our server, Jah-de, was amazing! It's been years since I've had service like that. You can tell she's worked in high-end restaurants from the way she handled everything. I'll definitely be back!

i had a wonderful dinner here while in Atlanta covering the Biden-Trump debate. Hands down the menu at Zakia was the best of everything i did. i had kibbeh nayeh (steak tartare), lamb stuffed grapeleaves, hummus, and filet kabobs that all were outstanding. The side dish of buttered rice with almond slivers was excellent. It is nearly impossible to find any Middle East restaurant that offers both kibbeh nayeh AND lamb stuffed grapeleaves together. The food was great.the dining room itself was amazing, providing a phenomenal levantine atmosphere to enjoy a great meal. This is my favorite restaurant in Atlanta.

Service was slightly slow but everyone working was so kind and helpful. The aesthetics of the restaurant are luxurious and moody, definitely feels classy. My only wish is that they would get different tables. The black gloss was almost impossible to keep clean and we kept asking for paper napkins to wipe up water from the drinks. Coasters would also be a solve. Top items were the cheese rolls, stuffed grape leaves, the bussel sprouts and the honey harissa salmon.

This place is stunning!!! Whoever did the interior design in here did such a beautiful job. My serve was attentive & his recommendations were great. I can't recall his name but the entire staff is truly polite. The food was delicious.

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.

Throughly enjoyed my meal which was family style. We had hot and cold appetizers, a main meal and dessert. All was great! The coffee at the end was delicious and we also had a Turkish red wine bottle which was great. The service was average but they were nice nonetheless! Parking is in the garage below which is pay by the hour online. Inside the restaurant was gorgeous!

The best Lebanese food I've ever had! Everything my friend and I ordered from the hummus to the lamb chops was amazing. We were already talking about coming back to try more things on the menu before we even finished our meal. Service was great! Our waitress was funny, attentive and all of our food came out very promptly which made our experience even better. This restaurant is very classy and spacious - the perfect backdrop for a perfect meal. A must try if you're in the area.

This was our 22nd anniversary - something the restaurant was aware of. We had reservations in the bar area. The food and ambience were great but the service was just ok. We felt a bit rushed by our waitress, and she never acknowledged our anniversary. I read comments from other diners saying the restaurant gave them champagne to celebrate their anniversary. Too bad they didn't do anything special for us...

This is a beautifully designed restaurant and the staff is excellent. The portions are large so don't over order like we did!I dodon't eat lamb but there are lots of other choices.
