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 used to love this place, but the quality of food has gone down in the last few months. Pita doesn’t come with the hummus. The garlic sauce/dip is no longer included & they gave my hot sauce instead..hot sauce.. I can understand charging extra for extra but something that comes with the meal should be included. The food is bland now & the rice is diff. I particularly loved their rice but it’s not the same. Will no longer be coming here.
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.
I visit this place religiously every Friday and today for some odd reason male waiters red hair says no hookah available until 4 bc a big group is coming in. Makes absolutely no sense.. just thought the owner of business should no bc I will not be back. EVER!
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.
