    The Lamb Gyro Platter, Lamb Gyro Wrap, and the Mix Meze Plate
    Tanni D.

    Cafe Agora looks completely different now. The place has been fully renovated, and it's so posh! The prices have gone up a bit, but the food is still just as delicious as I remember. Since the renovation, I've been back twice, and both visits were great. On my first visit, I ordered the Agora Mixed Grill ($28), which came with adana kebab, lamb kebab, chicken kebab, and lamb gyro, served with rice, salad, and pita. It's basically a dream plate for meat lovers. Everything was flavorful, and the meats were tender and juicy. On my second visit, I went for the Adana Kebab ($22), a grilled spicy ground lamb skewer seasoned with red bell peppers and also served with rice, salad, and pita. It was perfectly cooked with just the right amount of spice. Overall, the new atmosphere feels upscale without losing the welcoming vibe, and the food quality remains excellent. Definitely worth revisiting if you haven't been since the remodel.

    I sat at the bar since I was alone. AJ was a great server and bartender. The food was great and perfectly cooked. Just enough char and seasoning. Most of their seating is upstairs so be aware. One nice thing is that they have free parking across the street. Ambiance is nice but casual.

    I can't believe I haven't been here yet Hands down the best Mediterranean food I've ever had in Atlanta. And it's down the street from me. Perfect. More Baklava please!! that was the absolute best ever! Make sure to order it. Michelle was super awesome and took care of me quickly. Answering all the right questions. She's awesome. The outdoor sitting was cool with the overhead art piece.

    Tastefully decorated interior with matching plate designs. They gave us a complimentary lentil kofte to start which was very light and refreshing with the lettuce wrap. The babaghanoush was smoky and paired well with the warm pita. Entrees came out shortly after. My beef kebab was super tender, and the orzo had a tasty tomato flavor. My boyfriend's mixed plate had a lamb chop, lamb kebab, chicken kebab, and Adana kebab (spicy ground lamb). The best was the lamb chop, which was pretty high quality and tender. The baklava was a delicious end to the meal, with buttery layers of dough and satisfying pistachio flavor. The ice cream was a good accompaniment. Service was excellent, super friendly and attentive. We did have to box up our leftovers though, while some other places with a similar price point tend to box them up for you. All in all, very impressed with the food here and would recommend!

    Mezze platter
    Hussain L.

    Wow, what a great experience! Terron was a fantastic server - he treated us like family, and was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and respectful. The mezze platter is a great appetizer for the table - highly recommend so you can try all the dips - my favorite was the eggplant salad. The asude chicken was a bit too charred for my taste. The baklava dessert with vanilla ice cream was excellent, simple and tasty! Appreciated the ambiance, intimate, and comfortable.

    Came for my sisters birthday and it was great from start to end. We ordered the babaghanoush, Greek potatoes, and spanakopita; let's just say they did not disappoint. We actually missed an order and when we advised they brought it out on the house no question. Our server was sure to explain everything well and give recommendations. For entrees we ordered the falafel, chicken kebob, branzino, and angora mixed grill they all had rice and a salad. All entrees were a nice portion and seasoned very well. We sat upstairs it's a smaller venue with mild lighting but a nice vibe for a dinner date or small party function. I will definitely be returning!

    Salmon Plate
    Tiyenne G.

    First time dining here but it's a favorite of my colleagues. I went with the Salmon plate for lunch and it was delicious. Salmon was fresh and well cooked, as well as everything else on the plate. Service was quick, especially for the lunch hour. I loved the vibe of the place, as it made me feel welcomed and it was perfect for our group. I will definitely be back to try more of the menu!

    An incredibly decorated and cute restaurant. It has seating outdoors, at the bar, and upstairs. We came for lunch on a weekday. It wasn't super crowded and the service was quick! Our waiter gave us great recommendations and we shared a mixed platter. The salmon was well cooked and the gyro was tasty! Would recommend!

    Cutest pillar of bowls decorate the pillar at the bar.  Great place!!

    Stopped in for a light dinner. Ended up just having a large appetizer sampler and a cocktail. Sat at the bar and was treated well by the bartender. Drink came quickly and when the food arrived she gave me a tour of the plate and took good care of me throughout my stay. The food was plentiful and tasty. I am looking forward to my next visit.

    Lamb chop

    What a cute spot! We came on a Monday night and were surprised at how busy the place was. We were sat upstairs right away. Unfortunately, there were a few large parties and the server was very nervous about a delay in our dinner but we did not think it was much of an issue. The food was very tasty. I really enjoyed the babaganoush and the cream sauce on my salmon. I was shocked at how large the salmon portion was. I would come back!

    Antoinette P.

    I absolutely love this restaurant. The service is phenomenal from the hostess to the waiter. It is kid friendly! The ambiance is relaxed but still slightly elevated. Our daughters enjoyed the asude kebab - the chicken was tender and seasoned to perfection! The rice had ingredients they are too picky to enjoy but they did eat the white rice. We also had the shrimp saganaki for appetizer. It was ok - it could have used a bit more seasoning. We got warm pita to share with the table. The best item we ordered was the salmon plate - OMG so amazing! The salad it came with was so delicious and fresh! We love this restaurant and will go back for sure!

    Pistachio Baklava
    Cherie R.

    Great spot in Midtown Atlanta! Started off with a complimentary herb lentil Kofte appetizer on a piece of lettuce - so refreshing and good! It set the stage for the rest of the meal. My waiter recommended the Asude Kebab (chicken thighs, seasoned rice, grilled veggies), it was good but I realized I'm not a big fan of chicken thighs lol. I finished my meal with the pistachio baklava which came with a scoop of vanilla ice cream - it was soooo good. Could eat 10 pieces of that baklava. My waiter was wonderful, very kind and helpful. Everything was relatively quick other than paying at the end. It took forever to get the check. The overall vibe of the restaurant is nice, cozy and feels upscale but casual at the same time. Loved it. Thanks!

    Susanna C.

    Excellent service and excellent food. They started out with a small starter chef's compliments. We had Sigara rolls and the sirloin kebabs. Both were delicious. We also had the baklava with ice cream, which was a nice finish and wasn't too sweet. Overall the staff took great care of us and the food was excellent.

It's from 3-6pm Monday through Thursday (I believe). They have $6-8 cocktails and a variety of food in the $5-10 range. The food was all fantastic, as was our waiter. He constantly checked on us, kept the complimentary bread supplied, and gave great recs for both food and cocktails. I love a waiter who explains the menu so you know what you're getting into beforehand. As we were leaving, it was torrentially down-pouring and the host was so kind to let me borrow his umbrella to get to my car.

Spots I would rather recommend for a nice night out are Delbar, Rumi's, and Yalda. My friends and I tried the Muhammara Dip, the Feta Cheese Rolls (reminiscent of spanakopita but no spinach and in roll form), the Truva Dumplings, and the Iskender Kebab. The Iskender Kebab and the Muhammara were the best of the bunch, but overall I think I was expecting more punch from the spices and greater nuance in the flavors of each dish. The thing I honestly enjoyed most was the complimentary bread and sun-dried tomato dip, which has gotten a number of shoutouts of Yelp already. I would come back to this spot to get a handful of appetizers, eat that bread, and hang out for a few hours. It does seem like the restaurant needs more staffing. Everyone we saw was very kind, but it took a long time to get a server's attention whenever we needed something.

    Absolutely Incredible - Best Meal I've Had While Traveling!…read more I travel all over the country for work, and I can honestly say Delbar delivered one of the best dining experiences I've ever had. From the moment I sat down, my bartender Taz took exceptional care of me. I wasn't familiar with the menu, so I trusted her recommendations, and she absolutely knocked it out of the park. Every single dish she chose was outstanding. I started with the fresh pita and hummus topped with the mushroom, shishito pepper, and egg addition. The pita was warm, fresh, and unlike anything I've had before. The hummus was rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. The chicken wings were phenomenal, perfectly grilled with incredible flavor and just the right amount of char. The highlight of the night was the lamb neck with the Polo Sefid. The lamb was unbelievably tender and flavorful, and paired with the saffron rice, it was one of the most memorable dishes I've ever eaten. What truly elevated the experience was Taz's service. She was knowledgeable, attentive, and passionate about the food. Her recommendations made the entire meal unforgettable. If I hadn't trusted her guidance, I would've missed out on an amazing culinary experience. Beyond the incredible food, Delbar has an atmosphere that is truly special. The entire restaurant feels warm, welcoming, and almost familial as if you're being welcomed into someone's home rather than simply dining out. The lighting is absolutely gorgeous, creating the perfect ambiance without feeling overly formal. The decor is tasteful and elegant, the bar area is stunning, and the dining room strikes a perfect balance between upscale and comfortable. Even the approach to the restaurant and the outdoor space are beautifully designed. Every detail feels intentional and contributes to an experience that is as memorable as the food itself. Delbar has officially become a must-visit anytime I'm in Atlanta. I'll absolutely be returning, and next time I'll be bringing family all the way from Reno, Nevada so they can experience it too. Thank you Taz! Thank you, Delbar, for an unforgettable evening!

Worst of all, even if the restaurant says it accepts OpenTable dining credits, the dining credits actually could not be used in the restaurant! Or at least, the staff did not know how to use it. No apologies, no remedies. I was disappointed. For a reference, I dine in at Rumi's Kitchen (Colony Sq/Sandy Spring branch) at least twice a month.

Portions were generous without being sloppy, and every bite held its own. The service was warm, attentive, and unpretentious.

My girlfriend has a very strict diet due to food sensitivities, so before ordering she specifically asked about the dough, bread, and flours used in the food. Unfortunately, instead of receiving details about the ingredients, she was simply told that she could eat it. Based on that information, she ordered the meal, but later had a reaction to the dough that was used. This was frustrating because the situation likely could have been avoided if we had been given accurate information about the ingredients from the beginning. We completely understand that not every restaurant can accommodate every dietary restriction, but being transparent about what is used in the food allows customers to make informed decisions for themselves. The food itself was good, which is why we're giving 3 stars, but the service on this particular issue left us disappointed. We hope the restaurant can do a better job of providing ingredient information when customers ask, especially for those with dietary restrictions or sensitivities.
