My family went out for my big sister’s birthday for brunch and it was awesome everything & awesome and it is absolutely beautiful atmosphere. I am in Atlanta native so I know this building as a child and before this it was The S&S Cafeteria. It’s a lot of space for big parties, live bands, football watching galore!! The service(s) very nice & attentive. The chicken wings………..I had to go & chef personally & tell him thank you!! Too good!! I had lemon drops…4 of them…that good!!! I am going back before the holiday season starts with is soon.

First time visiting Dijla Cafe and I was impressed. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The grilled meats were tender and well-seasoned, and the appetizers balanced it nicely with crisp salads, creamy dips, and falafel that hit the mark. I also tried the lemon mint smoothie, which was out of this world and worth the trip on its own. The service was warm and attentive without being overbearing, and the whole vibe of the place is cozy and laid back. Prices were reasonable considering the generous portions and the quality of the food. An excellent spot to relax, share a great meal, and feel taken care of.

I don’t leave reviews often, but this one is well deserved. You can genuinely taste the love and intention in this food. Every single item was prepared with care — nothing was forgotten, nothing was rushed, and every detail was right.
The plating was absolutely beautiful. It didn’t feel like typical takeout; it felt like I was personally being catered to. The presentation alone showed pride, but the flavor and quality sealed it. Everything was fresh, perfectly seasoned, and consistent.
I’ve been using DoorDash for over five years — at least twice a week — and this is hands down one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had on the platform. Dijla Cafe sets the standard. I will absolutely be ordering again.

I really enjoyed my experience at this Iranian restaurant! The appetizer, especially the hummus, was incredible.I’ve never liked hummus before, but theirs was amazing. The fish on the platter was delicious too, though I felt the portion could have been a little bigger. The light inside was quite dark, which might be part of the ambiance, but it felt a bit too dim for me. Overall, the food was great, and I’d love to come back!

Hands down the best Arabic food I’ve had in a long time! Everything was fresh, authentic, and bursting with flavor. The hummus was creamy, and the grilled meats were cooked to perfection. Highly recommended for anyone craving a real taste of the Middle East!”

I went on NYE, and the food was amazing. I will definitely be back. It was a little cold inside on this particular day.

It’s my Partners escape. He introduced me to this place ever since I love going there because it’s very calm and quiet. Has very good service, most importantly very very good food and very pocket friendly.

One of the best Iraqi kebabs I have had in years
The rice was amazing ( like back home) and I couldn’t get a picture of the lentil soup because of how delicious and genuine it was
If they have more people to help the amazing and always smiling Rajab , I would have given a full 5 stars for service, but i am sure they can manage better next time
The chef was even nice enough to assist in serving the food
Will definitely come back to try out other dishes on the menu

Fish Tips truly lives up to its name because every bite was a knockout! The flavors were perfectly seasoned, the food was juicy and tender, and the portions were just right. From the first bite to the last, everything was top-tier.

Overall, the experience was disappointing. While the food itself was good, the service fell short. Our server was wearing headphones and had to be called multiple times before responding. Our main order took about 30 minutes to arrive, but unfortunately, our child’s meal was delayed even further because the server wasn’t paying attention.
What was most concerning is that the juice given to our child was expired. Additionally, during our meal, the interior lights were dimmed so much that my wife couldn’t see her plate clearly and struggled to eat her fish.
We hope the management takes these issues seriously to improve the overall dining experience for future guests
