Very nice small restaurant. They had good reviews so we stopped in for lunch. The quinoa and garbanzo salads were both great. The quinoa salad was tasty and would definitely order again. That garbanzo salad was so good. I almost ordered another one to go. The vinaigrette in there is amazing. We tried the lentil soup, didn’t know it was going to be puréed all the way down, but it makes sense. It wasn’t very seasoned, but they provided salt and pepper and all I added was a dash of salt with pepper and it was a great healthy option for me. I can see some people not ordering the lentil soup because it doesn’t sound fun but my opinion it’s healthy and a great option to have on the menu when most restaurants wouldn't. Looks like they’re doing some construction outside to add patio space which would be cool. The Eggplant appetizer was great, but I don’t like the Taziki sauce. No worries, I didn’t need it. I thought the tuna salad croissant would be cold, but it was warm. It was good, but it had feta cheese on there and I wasn’t aware. They should definitely highlight the items with feta cheese, garbanzo salad had it on top as well. I didn’t see any drink specials, even though they had many drink options for a small place. I recommend highlighting some specials to get some daytime traffic flow. Nice server, no complaints. I really enjoyed this place and I’m glad we stopped in for lunch. I am full, took some food home and don’t feel bad after eating it. Decent menu for a small place. Nice chill music in the background, I’d highly recommend you trying this place for yourself. Check the menu out to see if this type of food is what you want to eat. I wish more efforts can be put in place to make south Atlanta look as nice as this side of town. Everyone wants good neighborhood, good food options, peace and safety. This place is five star, come...
Read moreOne does not simply attend Kiosco Marietta Square. Oh no. One experiences a Mediterranean excursion well equipped with 6 star service, 7 star cocktails and 11 star food that honestly is a crime that Michelin has not granted this restaurant with its rightful star ranking.
The Lychee Martini and Kiosco Mule will take you on a journey of flavorful sweetness and promiscuity. Truly some of the most unexpectedly delicious cocktails I’ve had in Marietta.
Then, your taste buds are taken to the next level with the Mezze Trio, a sumptuous trifecta of the best pita sauces I’ve had in recent memory. Truly a delight to begin your culinary expedition.
And then the main courses. Wow. Even food critics like Anton Ego of Ratatouille fame would quiver in expectation upon receiving the traditional yet innovative work of art produced through the Lamb Skewers and Pesto Rigatoni Chicken pasta. These are just objectively scrumptious. You will not go wrong with these choices. The lamb skewers can only be described as Mediterranean sushi with a savory surprise at every bite. And the portion sizes are ideal for a southerner looking to fill their large bellies (in which we had leftovers for lunch).
If you want a server fit for a king or queen, Baran is your man. He was prompt, respectful and had a deep almost academic knowledge of the restaurant’s cuisine. Dare I say Baran should be promoted, given double tips and perhaps knighted if he were British - but he’s not because it would not be authentic enough for an establishment such as Kiosco.
This was an epic experience. This restaurant should be 100% full every single brunch, lunch and dinner. Get your reservations now before the celebrities...
Read moreA pleasant lunch sitting on the sidewalk on a fall day. A couple of blocks off the square makes for a quieter less crowded and much nicer dining experience. Coupled with excellent service and great food made a really nice afternoon. I started with the Kiosco Mule which had a complex taste that went well with the day. Both of us had the tuna croissant that was on a very flaky toasted croissant and had a side salad with balsamic dressing. Very tasty! For dessert, I had the Magnolia and a Turkish coffee. My wife had the Profiterole. Both were excellent. Try it for a quieter, less hurried, meal.
We returned for lunch and dined inside, same great service, friendly and attentive. The interior decor is very nice, with relaxing colors and cozy. The music is also a relaxing blend of easy jazz. My wife stayed with the Tuna Croissant and Profiterole for dessert. I tried the Mediterranean burger which was also very good with a great batch of fries. I tried the Baklava and think it is the best I've eaten. I usually find Baklava to be heavy and overly sweet. This was flaky and just the right sweet with whipped cream on the side. Either inside or outside, a really good dining experience!
We have been back several times trying different things from breakfast to main courses. Never disappointed. The pulled beef and the chicken skewers are my favorites. The vanilla pancakes are a good breakfast item. On the last visit, I had the chicken gyro. Equally good. Now it's hard to decide what to order because it...
