Taziki's Mediterranean Cafe - Kennesaw — Restaurant in Kennesaw

I had a procedure done at Kaiser quite a while ago. I had not been able to eat and was looking forward to a meal afterwards. The two nurses wheeling me in the room said there were plenty of good restaurants in the area. I mentioned wanting breakfast, so was given a suggestion. The other nurse also mentioned that while it wasn't breakfast Taziki's was one of her favorite places citing the rice and grilled meats. I know I wouldn't be up to cooking later, so after enjoying some breakfast I called in a to go order from Taziki's for the grilled lamb plate-I got the basmati rice and it also included a Greek salad. I was the first customer of the day so was taken care of right away. The pleasant woman who greeted me told me how to perfectly reheat my rice. I ended up just reheating everything in the microwave on a lower power until it was just warm enough. The meat remained juicy and the rice was perfect-I loved the Greek salad dressing so much I sprinkled some if it over my rice. The salad was very fresh! I loved everything and will return if ever in the area. I would have loved to have a tiny bit more. but I don't normally order lamb, so maybe the portion was fairly priced. Even still worth coming back and...

We frequent several of the Tazikis a few times per month. We enjoy everything we’ve tried here but we usually get the Family Feast for 4 with grilled chicken as of late. Their chicken is cooked so perfectly! It is always so tender and moist and packed with flavor. I am addicted to their greek dressing. The basmati rice and potatoes are always cooked perfectly also and so delicious.

Yesterday the taziki sauce was terrible - it was very watery, the color was off and it had no salt. I was starving and tasted some in the car to hold me over and upon noticing it, I went back in to ask for a different cup. They said they had received a couple other complaints and the girl said she could basically doctor it for me with some salt as she thought it was made incorrectly without sale or offer me a different dipping sauce. I was confused why they would still be serving a sub par product, that is their namesake at that, after complaints and knowing it wasn’t made well. They let me taste the whipped feta dip and pimento cheese. Both were delicious- i had a hard time choosing. The whipped feta was a crowd favorite at home and so the error worked out because we now have a new favorite dipping sauce. You can’t go wrong with anything...

UPDATE 1 DAY LATER: horrible stomach issues. Something was definitely wrong with that food.

Younger gal who brought us our food was very friendly. Exceptionally kind and deserves a raise.

Rest of staff seemed a little checked out.

The food was really bad. Have eaten at many Tazikis over the years since 2015.

First ever bad experience.

Entrees: 0/5 Grilled lamb - gamey and tasted old; VERY tough. Inedible. Really bad. Have never had lamb like that.

3.5/5 Chicken kabobs- tasted okay but only 6 small cubes of chicken on the "feast"

3/5 - chicken breast feast. Wasnt what i expected either. Was cut into pieces instead of full chicken breast.

Sides: 0/5 Basmati rice was undercooked and inedible. Crunchy!

3/5 Potatoes - overcooked and very mushy and also had old taste.

2/5 greek salad was mushy greens; parts inedible.

3/5 Chicken rice soup - small cup for $5+ and was more like grandmas chicken soup than traditional greek creamy lemon forward soup. It was good but not...
