    Yes the music is loud, BUT it is a great gathering spot for friends and family. It is an excellent place to people watch and a great place to try new cocktails. We had the corn ribs for an appetizer! Very well seasoned! We also enjoyed the lamb shank and the the rack for dinner. It’s hard to decide which was better. It did take over an hour for our entree to make it to the table. We did not notice or care because Arianna , made sure we were seen and kept in the loop. Best experienced service we have had in over a year!

    This was our first time at Rumi’s and we had such an amazing time! The food had my jaw on the floor several times, and Luisean was an amazing server! He was so attentive and knowledgeable and he definitely went out of his way to make sure our experience was perfect. We will be back and will for sure be asking for Luisean!

    Rumi’s is my favorite restaurant in Georgia. The Sandy Springs location is near my house, so I visit it more often. I love the professionalism, the kindness, the expertise and dedication of the staff. I give them 5 stars.
