    Hamburger
    Tom M.

    Brace yourself ... I've actually found a Healthy Hamburger !! Their burgers are huge too! Great portion size and a great deal for your money I always get the burger and either a salad or tabouli - both very healthy and filling. It's a tucked away hidden find but well worth it. I order right through the "Gyro Cafe" app and the friendly staff have it ready when I get there. Nice corner store next to Taco Mac and a bunch of other great restaurants. There's outdoor seating and tables too, which is nice when I bring my dogs with me. Extra parking in the back if you need it.

    Gyro Plate
    Brittney C.

    Wow ! So much goodness. I'm a big fan of Mediterranean food so this was a perfect selection for lunch. Haven't had gyros in a long time so I had a mouth ready to be wowed in flavor and they succeeded ! I ordered the lamb gyro with hummus and let's just say it tasted so fresh. Nothing was dry or over cooked - just perfect. If you're in the Alpharetta area or familiar with Fooda at work - take advantage. Gyro cafe did not disappoint. The server was also my cashier and he seemed very nice and humble for my business. Was happy he took his time and listened to what I wanted. Will be visiting them again.

    Chicken Shish Kabob Plate

    Very clean place and the food was good. Don't usually do reviews but the presentation was nice and they didn't go light on the protein!

    Chicken gyro salad.

    We came here for lunch. We ordered chicken gyro salad and lamb kabob plate. The chicken was dry and didn't tasted fresh. Once I started with the salad I noticed some sand. The lamb just tasted like plain lamb meat. No taste of any seasoning. Might give it a try again another time. I'm not sure yet.

    Worst gyro (if that's what you want to call this mess) that I've ever had!  This went straight into the trash!

    I was really craving a chicken gyro tonight. I looked on Yelp, and although the reviews weren't all that, I decided it was close to home and how badly can one really mess up a gyro? The small corner store is in a strip shopping center on the corner of Windward Parkway and Main Street. It was completely empty in there and now I know why. The place was filthy! My food was ready within 5 minutes. I ordered a chicken gyro with Greek fries to go. When I got home and opened the container, I was faced with soggy fries and a gyro that smelled rotten! The meat was dark meat chicken (if that's what it was), and full of fat. It really smelled "off". The chicken chunks were topped with wilted lettuce, chopped tomatoes, and chopped onions. The concoction was drenched in a thin, wet, supposedly Taziki sauce. The wrap was soaked and you couldn't even hold it without it falling apart. I will never EVER step foot in that place again! I'm afraid to know what the health inspector has rated it! I threw everything away. I'm extremely frustrated that dives like this are allowed to serve the public. Shame on you!

    Good food and good service. The only thing that was not great was my hummus and pita. Large amount of hummus but only 2 pieces of pita. Bit of a disappointment. I would go back.

Let's start of with how beautifully embellished the restaurant is. It's a refined fusion of modern elegance & old-world Persian heritage, that celebrates Persian hospitality & culture. You're greeted by the hostess that radiates warmth and geniality. Once seated you're gifted a complimentary starter Sabzi Plate that includes fresh herbs, feta cheese, walnuts, Castelvetrano olives, crunchy radish, and premium walnuts. It also comes with side of freshly baked Persian flatbread. We ordered a plethora of dishes. Our favorite plates were the hummus [we paired with the mushroom add on], lamb chops, and the Adas Polo rice. Trust me get the Adas Polo rice, it absolutely mouthwatering. As for beverages there is a variety of curated cocktails that we tasted but my top pick had to be the Tehran Mule! As for desserts our favorite was the Persian ice cream sandwich, it has unique flavors with rose being one of them. So good! For parking they offer a combination of valet services and validated garage parking depending on which location you go. The dress code is business casual. It's a perfect place for any accession, I definitely am planning on coming back to try more dishes. Take my word and come check it out! Your taste buds will thank you!

I ordered a simple Bombay martini and one of the specialty cocktails for my wife. The bartender made my martini in a shaker and I remember hearing him asking someone else to stir it for him. For the next ten minutes or more, the bartender proceeded to make drinks for the waiters, I remember him spilling out two drinks and remaking them while my martini continued diluting in the melting Ice. Ten minutes or more later, he pours my martini into more of a champagne coup glass than a martini glass, and I waited another five minutes or more for my wife to get her drink. When I tasted the upmartini, It tasted so diluted, just bad, almost commical to me. I just laughed to myself because i've tended bar for a living and that was about the worst martini i've ever had in my life. Either Rumi is watering down his booze or the ice melted so much that there was barely a gin taste in the glass. I think their gig is rather than give you a real martini level pour they dilute you with so much melted Ice that you think you're getting a full pour martini, when, in fact, what you're getting is half gin and half melted ice. And believe ME, you are charged as though it was a real martini. The place was pretty busy, so a lot of people must not have a clue... or just like busy places. If everybody says, this is such a great place, I guess it's gotta be. Unfortunately, that's just Atlanta-if it's popular everyone just assumes it's good or pretends it is. I don't do well with pretend. Next after being seated at the table, i tried to order wine least expensive wines (so overpriced)-they were out of all of the lower-end overpriced wines I tried to order. It just bugs me to overpay so much for bottles of table wine. They're barely twenty dollars charging, 60-80 for them. But of course, ten minutes after I ordered the wine, this happened twice, the waiter told me they were out of the ones i was trying to order ( everyone must have had the same idea). Oh well. Right before the table was served the main course, the waiter and manager came to tell me that they had run out of the dish I ordered. I ended up replacing it with their duck dish that I had never heard of before but what the hell I'll try it (maybe I deserve it, because I remember my father always told me you never ordered duck in a strange restaurant you don't know) Everyone else at the table of 8 were served their meals ten minutes before my plate arrived. i'm like, please go ahead and start without me. Then, the duck arrives. I mean, if you're such a Rumi's, fan, try the duck and tell me what you think. First of all, it was lukewarm for something that apparently had just been made. The lukewarm duck comes 'in" this purple sauce, I mean, it wasn't even swimming in the purple sauce-It was submerged in the purple sauce. The waiter, of course, later brought me the wrong type of rice than the one i oredered..That's okay they brought me a new one right away. I was really starving at the time, but if I hadn't been, I don't think I would have eaten any of the duck. Being submerged in a kind of a sickening, putple sweet sauce it just wasn't appetizing at all. Challenge: if you're a big Rumi's fan, go ahead and please try the duck, but you have to try it like I did- lukewarm temptation. Then tell me if you remain an unconditionalRumi's fan. The bread is delicious though. To their credit when I tried to order 2 glasses of red wine after my meal was served, they did give us the vin de table for free. I won't be coming back here anytime soon.

The restaurant was promptly seated, and we started with a Mazza. Our fantastic waitress, Alisa, recommended the Duck confit, which was exceptionally fresh that day. We couldn't resist and ordered it. The duck confit was incredibly delicious and crispy, perfectly complemented by the tangy pomegranate sauce. After savoring the appetizer, we moved on to our main course. We initially wanted to try the Lamb Shank, but Alisa's suggestion of the roasted eggplant and lamb stew was equally enticing. It turned out to be an excellent choice. The lamb was incredibly tender and succulent, while the eggplant was cooked to perfection. The stew was rich and flavorful, making it a satisfying meal.
