    Hot pastrami sandwich
    Suhana E.

    I came here for the first time today. I ordered the hot pastrami sandwich. It was very good! I will definitely come back to try other items. I wish it was closer to home! I live in Lilburn and I hope they open another location closer. Service was nice & friendly. Ambiance is casual and clean.

    Wow !!!! I'm in love their creative sandwiches and subs. They do an amazing job in how fresh and yummy everything is. They have different innovative assortments. So they have the classic subs and sandwiches like chicken parmigiana or tuna sub. But then they have a nihari dip sandwich, which is a creative with blend of desi dip on the side and tender meat inside the sub. Their pesto chicken is an excellent option for more healthy option since it's grilled. Their spicy Nashville sub is amazing with the spice level but you can tone it down as well. Their environment is casual but they have plenty of tables and chairs. Overall a great place to try out. Side note: 20 minutes from the airport.

    Hot Reuben on Marble Rye bread cut in half / hot unseasoned fries / can soda **** Reuben sandwich with SMALL AMOUNT of very thinly sliced meat. Service was punctual. Ambiance was noisy.....staff was upgrading tv monitor.

This is some of the best Indian food that I've had and I can't wait to go back. The decor and ambiance is beautiful.

We spent a lot of time talking and catching up so we were pretty low maintenance. We tried a BUNCH of different items, so I'll rank them in order of tastiness ("***can't stop thinking about trying it again" to "*solid dish") because I found everything delicious! ***Gulab Jamun- I know this is dessert but it was so good I wanted to slap somebody ***Samosa Chaat- you had me at potato. SO good, a must try dish ***Kale Pakora Chaat- nice texture, delicious, earthy flavor. I couldn't put this one down **Gobi 65- cauliflower roasted crispy with spices. Nice and light with a slight spice. **Chili Chicken- flavorful and tender chicken, some heat on this one, but I took this one to go because we were too full! *SDSP-really tasty but I wasn't really prepared for it to be cool/cold.

The ambiance is lovely, the crowd was great, and the place had a really cool vibe. I visited after hearing so much hype online, and it absolutely lived up to it. I tried two burgers and both were delicious with perfectly cooked smash patties. The standout for me was the "That Shit Slambing" -- a smashed lamb burger loaded with lettuce, tomato, caramelized onions, jalapeños, and Che Sauce on a soft brioche bun. Packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. I also tried the "Patti Labelle," a patty melt made with a Superior Angus beef patty topped with pastrami, Swiss, cheddar, mustard, and chipotle aioli on their Big Beautiful Bread, served with fries. The bread was incredibly fresh and honestly one of the best parts of the meal. The only thing I'd change is the fries -- they could have been a bit crispier. Other than that, everything was excellent. Overall, this is a must-visit spot for every burger lover in Atlanta, and it's definitely a place I'd keep coming back to.

I ordered the "That S**** Slambin" burger and it was good. Had a unique herb sauce flavor that I actually enjoyed and made it stand out a little from a normal burger. Fries were delicious. That being said, after looking at other reviews and pictures, I honestly think I should have tried the Patti Labelle or one of the bigger burgers. Feel like that might have been the thing that really blew me away and would give me a 5. This is definitely the kind of place I'm going to keep exploring. I'll be back a few more times and could easily upgrade the review if I find the right order. Price felt fair for what you get, service was nice, and overall I'd definitely come back.

There was indoor and outdoor seating and we chose to sit outside as it was a beautiful night. We had amazing service, great food, in a really cute neighborhood. We were especially impressed with the staff, and we had a member come out more than once to check with one of the people dining with us who had food allergies to ensure that how they were offering the food would be safe for her. It was also impressive that this restaurant was so busy on a Monday night. There were three of us dining, and we didn't even order any of the meats, and there was plenty of food for us. From the Mazzes, we had the Omani Shrimp, which had a great dipping sauce and the Beet Carpaccio. (they were very accommodating and put the whipped feta on the side). For the Spreads, we did the hummus with mushroom, shisito and egg, which was amazing and the labneh with pickled fennel on the top. It's served with taftoun bread which I would describe as a mix of a cracker and pita with sesame on top. We also enjoyed a raw vegetable dish with radish and the most delicious apple slices. Their heirloom tomato salad was beautifully presented and plentiful. They had a flight of condiments and we were able to sample zhoug, spicy tahina and torshi, which was a mixture of pickled vegetables. We ended with a pistachio lava cake with the most delicious cardamon gelato. Overall, we had an amazing meal in their beautiful outdoor space, and we thought the food was really reasonably priced. There's something for everyone on this menu whether you're vegetarian, vegan or a meat eater.

We were greeted by smiles and a welcoming team at the host table and I quickly appreciated the Mediterranean charm of the restaurant -- I felt like I could have been in Rick's Cafe Americain or the Blue Parrot! The dim lighting offered a great blend of intimacy and privacy, while still letting me see the people at my table and the food! And the food! My goodness, the food! We had a wonderful sampling of shared appetizers. The hummus and Dill labneh were solid and would have been deemed more than worthy by my Lebanese grandmother! Olives were a revelation, and were done in a preparation that included pomegranate which paired really well with the brine of the olives! The star of the first round, however, was the whole cauliflower, roasted and spiced. Without reservation, I can say it is the most I have ever enjoyed cauliflower - and I shall return for it again! I was already full by the time my falafel arrived for my main course. Falafel was exactly as it was supposed to be, and it was good. I ate it all, and then, a la Violet Beauregard upon leaving the chocolate factory, had to be rolled out of the restaurant! Our server and his food runners were all gems! The manager also came by to chat with us a couple of times. Great people at Delbar!

From the moment I called in, his customer service was top tier. Professional, warm, and intentional. He made sure my order was right, sent a quick payment link so things moved efficiently, and had everything ready by the time I arrived. That's how you run a business. When I pulled up, he greeted me with a smile, brought my food out, and confidently told me I was going to enjoy it and he was absolutely right. I originally planned to grab my food and go, but his energy made me slow down, sit, pray, and actually enjoy the moment. I asked for a lime Jarritos, and he recommended pineapple instead to pair with the jerk seasoned wild caught salmon sandwich. That recommendation was on point and really elevated the whole experience. That sandwich hits. Every bite pops with flavor across your entire palate. The salmon was perfectly cooked, juicy but not soggy. The kale had the right crunch. The onions tied everything together. And that homemade garlic butter on the salmon took it to another level. It's a creative spin on a traditional cheesesteak. I'm sure the beef options are great too, but if you want seafood, this is the move. I've had a Philly cheesesteak in Philly before, and honestly, I don't need to go back. When I'm in Atlanta, I'm coming here. Sammy, thank you for the hospitality and the intentionality behind what you do. You didn't just serve food, you created an experience. Thank you for praying with me. I will definitely be back.

I love a waiter who explains the menu so you know what you're getting into beforehand.

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.
