Kyma

One of my favorites in Atlanta. Service is impeccable and food is consistently delicious every time.
The giant white beans, the spanokopitas, and the dolmades are my absolute favorite for appetizer.
the fish is as fresh as it gets but be ready to spend a pretty penny on it. It’s priced by the pound so make sure you know what you are getting and paying for otherwise you will get a sticker shock when the bill arrives.
and the baklava i have ever had hands down. A note to the pastry chef: get rid of the pistachios on the plate, they actually hinder the taste of the flavor of the dessert and instead add a bit more of the ice cream.
overall you won’t be disappointed.

This is definitely a restaurant that had distinct good qualities and distinct bad qualities for me. I’ll start with the bad so I can end on a good note. I had a reservation for 9 people at 8pm. Three of our party arrived a little early and waited at the bar, when the rest of our party arrived we were to be taken to our table. However, several members of the group were underdressed and we were told our party would have to be seated on the patio. On a warmer night this might have been our choice anyway, but it was a bit chilly. We were from out of state, RI, VA, and CO and had I known other places in the area we would have left, but we didn’t. Next, the appetizers were TINY and besides the octopus not so great. Lastly, drinks were overpriced.
Now for the good… Our server (and I’m sorry I did not get his name) was phenomenal! Among the best I’ve had. He was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and helpful to each person ordering. He was friendly and professional and truly made it a good experience. He is the only reason I am giving this restaurant 3 stars instead of 2. The desserts especially the loukoumades (Greek donuts) in honey were to die for.
Would I come back again? No.

TL;DR — Good seafood. When ordering cocktails, ask Andre to make.
Came for some small bites and drinks with wife and one other couple late night.
I usually come to Kyma for seafood; especially their grilled octopus. If no one told you it was an octopus and you had it with blindfolds on, you would think it is a very tender and juicy chicken sausage.
This night we ordered grilled octopus, prawns, and told Andre the bartender to surprise with us with four cocktails of his choice.
As per food, prawns were on point but sadly octopus was disappointing this time. It wasn’t made hot. It was lukewarm and lacked the char that would give out flavor of the flame.
As per alcohol, wow, Andre literally created an art with his drinks. He brought out four cocktails and each were individuality crafted with distinct characteristics per drink. Definitely recommend «Elixir of Life» or «Morpheus».
