Bad customer service and mediocre food. Went for b-day, after arriving put coupon on table for waiter to see and take. (simplified version of what happened next) Bill arrived, coupon was taken. Then told they do not accept, but no signs stating such. Called to verify coupon was good. Was then yelled at and disrespected by a Persian male manager. Then a Persian female manager came over and stated no manager at this restaurant can help a customer or discount a bill without it coming directly out of a person’s pay. I told her of the food issues and she said there is nothing they can do. She continued to say several disrespectful things to me. I was made to feel that this was not the type of restaurant I should be eating in. I finally paid my bill and left the restaurant visibly distraught and upset. After posting my experience on facebook, the owner called me a liar and would not acknowledge staff bad behavior. Regarding the food, only half of appetizer sampler was good (hummus was very grainy and soupy); bread overbaked; entrée meat and vegetables were partially burnt but the rice was good; missing several desserts and of those left, the flavors were not mixed together well. Food and staff behavior need improved.

Great outdoor patio with excellent food. This is one of my favorite go to places in town whenever I want to have a relaxing and enjoyable time with friends. We love their outdoor patio for hookas and the food and service is just awesome. Some of the est kebabs and hommus around at reasonable prices.

Fabulous Food. We have been regular customers at this Persian restaurant for the last 7 years or so. The food is always fresh, perfectly cooked and seasoned. The complimentary Persian flatbread is fabulous! The service is attentive and efficient. This is a regular stop whenever we have out of town guests. Have impressed even the pickiest eaters in my family. Would recommend this to anyone interested in exploring a new cuisine.

Delicious persian food!. I love Mirage because the food is so good and authentic. The kabobs are all wonderful, I recommend the chicken barg kabob or the fish filets, those are my favorites. I also love the rice because it is fluffy and it tastes so good with the kabob. The best part about Mirage is that it is definitely reasonably priced for the quality and the amount of food that you get. The wait staff are all really nice and the owner is especially welcoming. Will definitely be eating here often.

good food, good ala carte lunch prices. Best Koubideh(it's that minced meat thing shaped kind of like a long sausage) in Atlanta.

Shireen Polo(chicken chunks with rice, a few vegetables, orange rind, raisins, etc) is another great entree.

They do a pretty good with the rest of the entrees.

I did notice the flatbread varies from one Persian restaurant to another. Very different, but most of them are good. They serve unlimited hot flatbread which is nice. For lunch, they serve a soup that is great to have on a cold rainy day.

My only bad experience has been the owner. Some big fat guy who looks like he could be an Iranian version of Tony Soprano just sits in a corner doing his own work on a computer. Whenever there are any problems, he has a weird way of handling with things. Once our waiter made the mistake of serving dinner equivalent of a lunch item and then charged us for the dinner price. When we pointed out to the server that we requested it from the lunch menu, he changed the price back to lunch. The owner then comes to our table and tells us that he will deduct the price differential from the waiter's pay. Very unclassy way to deal with the customer. It was 2 extra chunks of lamb. The server's mistake ended up in me getting 2 extra small chunks of lamb - probably a dollar in meat costs at most. For that, the owner ruined our mood as we left because we felt bad for the waiter. The owner should have handled it internally. Other times too, I just notice a bored looking owner kind of serving as a damper in the corner. Whenever a waiter forgets my table and I need more water, he just sits there without making sure a waiter is there for me even though he has seen me trying to flag down a waiter. I preferred the guy in suspenders who used to be the manager(?) presence in the restaurant a few years ago.

Fabulous dining experience!. This past weekend I took my American friend out to dinner. I am so proud of myself for choosing MIRAGE Persian Cuisine to dine out. I must say that I am a vegetarian, and it is a bless to find a restaurant where you can enjoy hot Persian meals without meat! My selection "Ghorme Sabzi" was great and out of this world. My friend on the contrary is a true meat lover and ordered a Chelo Kabob Soltani. He is still taking about that dish three days later! Service was friendly and the prices where reasonable. One nice touch there was their hot home-made bread which was sereved with fresh herbs and Persian feta cheese. YUMMMMMMMie;-). I highly recommend this eatery and I am certain that I will go there again.

FANTASTIC without exaggeration. I've been to this restaurant a couple of times since I am always in Atlanta on business. Unfortunately, the Persian restaurants in my hometown of Houston, TX are just terrible. So I have always been longing for good authentic Persian food that rivals what my mom can make. At Mirage I've ordered the Shirin Polo, Beef Soltani, Chicken Soltani. They were all not just excellent, but left me craving it for WEEKS afterwards. The owner and her staff are so friendly that it makes me feel at home. The food didn't just remind me of my mom's, but I'm a younger guy and the way the owner treats me reminds me of my mom. That's a good feeling to have when you're away from home. The Shirin Polo was cooked ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! When they bring the plate to your table you can instantly smell the trademark aroma that's just plain intoxicating. The waitresses are very professional and their service is wonderful. As I visit Atlanta from Houston every week, I plan on making this a must stop once a week!
