The inside is uncomfortably hot. My plan was to eat inside but the heat made me choose take-out. Also, the cashier explained that they had lunch specials but the lunch specials were significantly smaller than the regular meals. I went with the regular meals. I went with the Beef and lamb Shwarm.

I have a love/hate relationship with this place. It's close to me, but if it wasn't I don't know if…read moreI'd visit. The service has always been really great, and the owner is genuinely nice and always ready for a pleasant conversation. But sometimes the food comes out... average at best? I really only come here when I have the taste for mediterranean fare but don't feel like cooking it since it's so nearby. There are some things they do well. I like their baba ganoush, hummus, and beet salad. But other things are a bit lackluster and the meats can be a hit or miss. Sometimes it's dry, other times it's succulent. The pita is toasted, but you can surely tell it isn't made fresh. My husband is obsessed with wings and even he said the wings served here are a BIG no. Also cannot recommend the fries, as they've been notoriously dry and cold. Perhaps we should not have expected good wings given that it's primarily mediterranean fare lol. The parking situation is also abysmal. They share a really small lot and the individual spots are poorly marked. This place is off of Briarcliff and the traffic is notorious for being bad, so that makes coming and going that much harder in a lot that's already a little treacherous. When the parking lot is full, it is like playing 2-ton Tetris. I'll also note that the hours can sometimes be a suggestion, and they unexpectedly close earlier than indicated (but will leave a handwritten note). This place seems to be a local favorite. The prices are nice. I just wish it was more reliable with taste and quality.

We had such an amazing experience at Del Bar Buckhead, and Veronica was a huge reason why! I was…read morevisiting from out of town to see two of my friends who live here, and we were celebrating one of their birthdays. Veronica made us feel so welcomed and genuinely special from the moment we sat down. She was incredibly friendly, kind, and attentive, and she truly went above and beyond to make sure we had a great evening. Her recommendations were spot on, and everything we ordered was delicious. The food was fantastic, but honestly, I'd come back just to see Veronica again. She made our night unforgettable and is exactly the kind of person who makes a restaurant stand out. Thank you, Veronica, for making our celebration so memorable. I can't wait to come back the next time I'm in town!

We are big fans of Mediterranean food and found this place when we searched. When we walked in, we were greeted by a host and got sat pretty quickly. Our server was welcoming and while they were able to meet our request, had to go to the kitchen or a manager multiple times to make a case. The food was tasty-- I ordered the salmon steak and they were willing to give me all greens for my sides. The gambas had too much oil for my liking as well as the calamari.

We were seated promptly, and the restaurant wasn't too loud, which made it easy to enjoy conversation at the table. I ordered the eggplant parmesan, my friend got the goat cheese ravioli (her favorite and usual order), and the other person in our group ordered the salmon. They both seemed to enjoy their meals. There was a mix-up with my order when the kitchen sent out chicken parmesan instead of the eggplant parmesan, even though our server confirmed that eggplant had been entered correctly. They took the plate back and remade my meal, which I appreciated, but that was the extent of how the situation was handled. The eggplant parmesan itself was okay overall. The eggplant was a little tough, though that may have been because they were trying to get my replacement meal out quickly so I wasn't left watching my friends eat for too long. Overall, I'd be willing to give Cafe Lily another try, but this visit was just okay for me.

My go-to is the gyro combo with a side of greek potatoes (the latter are amazing, and you get so many it's like a double-side). The pitas are fresh and their tzatziki sauce is great. Service is always friendly and they get it to you quickly, though at peaks times (read: business lunch hour) there can be a line. There is a small dining room with booths and tables if you're looking to dine in. Prices are reasonable, so if you're at the park or strolling the Beltline and jonesing for a gyro, give them a try.

Chicken was grilled, but tasteless. Served on top of a heavy piece of pita, so definitely a knife and fork operation. Unfortunately, the knife and fork themselves must have been some trendy but nonfunctional type, as both were unwieldy to use. The location itself was hard to find at the back side of an office building, and even with Google Maps I had to ask directions at the hotel next door. I wish them well, and hopefully with some constructive criticism they can flourish. Ambiance was just your average tea room/coffee shop look. Not a place for a romantic meal.

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. It's rare to find this level of hospitality these days and it made my already great experience here even better.

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.

The food was good overall, and we enjoyed the quality and flavor of what we ordered. However, we…read morewere disappointed with our experience regarding dietary accommodations and ingredient transparency. 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.
