Editorial Review for Kyma – by Citysearch Editors
The Scene
Pristine white marble and glittering chrome was clearly intended to create a stir in Buckhead. The interior divides between two large rooms, a comfortable bar and a long side lounge. Design touches are as subtle as gauzy room dividers and an azure ceiling sparkling with constellations, or as spectacular as an entryway mosaic made of colorful broken plates. Service is attentive and well-informed.
The Food
Fresh fish, char-grilled whole and served as a main course with a sauce of lemon and olive oil, is the keynote of this excellent upscale Greek restaurant. To start, try a small dish of smoky eggplant spread while sipping a glass of ouzo over ice. Move on to a sampler plate that includes perfectly fried squid, tangy stuffed grape leaves, briny anchovies with roasted peppers, and crispy phyllo rolls stuffed with feta. For dessert, don't miss the homemade yogurt with Greek mountain honey.

Insider Tips
What to EatThe "meze" tasting menu features more than two dozen choices from traditional grape leaves to mussels in the crock. Select six for $24.
What to DrinkSignature martinis pack a punch. For a fruity concoction, sample the Kyma Kosmo, a mix of orange vodka, blueberry liqueur, and pineapple juice.

I had never experienced a Greek restaurant until we went to Kyma. It was absolutely incredible, all around. The wait staff who waited on us were great. We had about 20 people in our group, and they took exquisite care of us. The food kept coming and it was all wonderful. My favorite was the lamb chops and, of course, the baklava! The best I've ever had. And those little donut holes with honey (I can't remember what they are called). Ohhhhhhhh heaven! Do they train the bees to make that honey. I've never had honey that tasted so good! Melt in your mouth. I would recommend Kyma to anyone wanting to experience the best of something different!
Pros: It was all pro! From the ambience, to the food to the wait staff. A+++++

My partner and I decided to celebrate Valentines day at Kyma. My partner is Greek so I wanted to do something special by taking him to a Greek Restaurant. We walked in and were takend away with the beauty of the decor and the charm of the live greek music. Our server Katie was amazing and talked us through their special valentines day menue. The food was some of the best we've ever had, my partners grandfather was a greek chef and he said that Kyma was better than his grandfathers cooking. We were sad to see our food gone at the end of the meal cuz everything was amzing. I hghly recomend kyma to everyone knwoing that it's a great place to go and amazing staff and service
