Rumi's Kitchen
What Our Expert Scouts Are Saying
Just like Persia became Iran without changing all that much, Rumi’s Kitchen is relocating from Hildebrand Drive to some classier digs down the block, with plans to preserve the menu and spirit of the resto. Diners are welcomed at the front entrance, with a beautiful new bar and an airy light-filled space, to enjoy the area’s finest Persian cuisine. Those who don't have time to stick around can embrace the latest to-go option, Rumi’s Pantry, where patrons can nab sandwiches and pastries to-go. We’re partial to the light and chewy walnut cookies and their take on ghotab, a delicious Iranian almond pastry.

Since, they moved to new location, I
guess their expense gone up too !! as they have raised their prices almost by
30 % percent,, which probably would be okay
if their food was as good too, well , its not, as a matter of
fact every body is complaining about the food taste...
All I could say, is that the Décor !!! is nice , and that's all.
So I wish 'em good luck .......

Best Persian in Atl by far..... I have been to Rumi's monthly/weekly for years. The quality and consistency of the food exceeds most fine dining restaurants in Atlanta. Preparing Persian food takes quite a bit of time so check times are longer here than other places, but it is worth the wait. I personally have not had a service problem and the rare instance when a dish is not correct it is fixed immediatly. My family is very picky and the staff has always gone out of their way to meet our requests. If you haven't tried Rumi's you are missing out on something special.

Great Persian Food. I went here with my sister and loved it. I would totally recommend Rumi's Kitchen. The ambiance is cool and the service is excellent. If you have never tried persian food and would like to venture off the path, I would tell you to start here. Their eggplant appetizer (Kashk Badenjoon) is the best. And for the main entree - order chicken kabobs - yum!

Great food. I am a regular at Rumi's and we are always treated like a guest in someone's home. They have some great sandwiches for lunch and the shrimp at dinner are some of the best we have ever eating. The only thing is for dinner sometimes even when we make a reservation we have to wait but it's worth it the food is that good! I suggest you try it , some of the best food in town.

Great Experience. I just came from Iran about a year ago. I've been looking for a great Persian restaurant and I came across Rumi's. It honestly is the best Persian food in Atlanta. The atmosphere is very lively and positive. The servers couldn't be better and everyone is so friendly and warm. The food and the service is absolutely Exquisite. I highly recommend this restuarant.

Exceptional Food. This place has amazing food. I was a little skeptical about eating at a Persian restaurant but the lamb fell off the bone and the rice was awesome. I also tried some Kabob and that was amazing as well.

fabulous food. I would have given this restaurant 5 stars but the ovecrowded ness in such a small place with waiters running around and management and hostess constantly running around the tables with worried and confused faces gets to be very annoying. But the delicious the food is soooo out of this world that we go back over and over again despite those issues. They are consistent in quality, taste, and presentation.
