Food was delish, service was great and love the fact there was a cool DJ, who played good music that didn't disrupt conversations. Also enjoyed the hookahs. We started with several appetizers, all were very good. The bread was amazing and the falafel was the best I have had in Atl. I had the shisk kabob, which was large pieces of filet. The meat was tender and tasty. I would definitely order it again. Only negative was that it was pretty warm in the restaurant.
Fantastic as always. Whenever I’m in Atlanta, it’s a must. Took some local friends and they loved everything about it. The experience is fenomenal for its food, drinks and music. Love it
This Turkish and Greek restaurant exterior is white & blue. I did dress up to dine with friends for picture perfect memories. There is indoor and outside seating available. They server many authentic delicious dishes, kebabs, and signature cocktails. Everything we tried was amazing. We ate ever bite without needing a Togo box. Yes, after dinner I tried my first hookah. I thought it was a unique experience. Great Job especially the lavender martini.
Expensive for no reason!We went at 5:30 pm and got just 3 things on their menu. A hookah, hummus, grilled shrimp. They all tasted average.The bill was $101. The service was ok. They added 20% gratuity for a restaurant that was almost empty. Moreover, paid an extra $10 for valet parking where the car was parked two steps away from us. We didn’t even need a valet to bring back the car. I understand times are hard but this was just a rip off.
Itâs a shame this place had changed. This place used to offer some of the most authentic, delicious Turkish and middle eastern dishes. The menu is very Americanized and bland now. The food is not bad, but good middle eastern is easily found elsewhere. This place has also seemed to be rebranded as a hookah lounge. Smoking is offered on their new patio area (which was a comfortable area) but also inside. So, if you want to eat some plain kebabs with indifferent service and someone smoking their hookah smoke next to you while you eat, then, this is the place. After going here many, many times we definitely will not be returning now that itâs changed.
This is one is the best places in Atlanta. The service was amazing and the food was even better!
The experience at Mandolin was average. The $20 valet fee was surprising. The inside seating accommodations were not in good standing and we noticed one main booth seat was torn up (the leather or vinyl was completely worn off), thus we opted for outdoors. When we were seated, the hostess advised there was a $75 minimum per person for being seated outside; I donât recall seeing that stipulation on OpenTable when we booked, or we may have selected another restaurant. I was truly hoping to love Mandolin, but I donât think weâd be quick to return.
Excellent Manager in Jem!!!
Great Shisha
I ordered shrimp with rice. The food taste was average but loved their starters.I don’t know why the waiters take forever to get you the bill.
