Kyma has been one of our favorite restaurants in Atlanta since its inception. It has changed over time and now has a lighter menu with emphasis on their tasting menu. The food was good, the service was excellent but somehow it just didn't deliver the same satisfaction as in the past.

This was the 1st time dining at Kyma's. I had the Calamari and Lobster pasta. Drinks: Lemon Ouzo, regular Ouzo, and red wine. My brother had, the Octopus and also the Lobster pasta. Drinks: Ouzo and water. Our Hostess was very polite and more than apt to help. We were early for our reservation, and she seated us immediately. Our waiter was great (very patient and knowledgeable). I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone in the world. It will be a truly excellent dining experience. I plan to dine at Kymas' again, the next time I'm in Atlanta.

We had wanted to be outdoors but it was not what we expected. Unfortunately, the indoor seating was booked. The staff worked really hard to accommodate us. We were somewhat secluded and worried about service but it was quite the opposite. The staff was outstanding and we really appreciated the effort. The food was really good and our evening was what we had hoped for.

They took our complete order and said they will bring the entree when we finished our appetizers. While still eating our appetizers, they enthusiastically brought out our hot entrees. We requested that they keep our entrees hot while we finish our appetizers. We felt very rushed through our meal. Also the bread served was stale, so we had to ask for fresh bread. All in all, it was a very disappointing experience.

It was very good. Reservations and valet parking was easy. The food was very tasty. We ordered the spreads appetizer and lamb chops. It took them a minute to bring just the water to the table but then the food started coming after that. We used our summer dine around card which I’ve participated in for over 5 years and love it! The only complaint was they cleared off our appetizer plate but we wanted to take it home

We made a reservation and didn’t get seated till over 30 minutes later. It then took 20 minutes for us to get our drinks and get someone to take our order. All the other reviews about the service being slow is accurate, they’re working hard but probably understaffed. The food came out pretty quick and was tasty. The atmosphere was nice and it was a good place for a date. It was a bit expensive, but fair for the high food quality! I’d go back, just make sure not to be in a rush!

We had a 5:15 reservation for outside seating and when the hostess took us to the patio we were told we had to select one of the tiny bistro tables along the wall, despite the fact that there was only one other couple on the patio when we arrived and they were seated on a sofa in a seating arrangement that could accommodate a party of 6. We ordered a bottle of wine and once the bottle and 2 glasses arrived, our table was so cluttered that we had to move the candle and fake flower arrangement to the floor under our table, to create more space on our tiny table. We also ordered 6 small plate appetizers to share, which were brought to our table 2 at a time. All of the food was delicious and our server, Ana was polite, efficient, attentive and knowledgeable. During our meal, only one other party was seated on the patio, a party of 3, seated on 3 comfy chairs with a large round table for sharing their food. This trio was quiet and respectful of other diners. Unfortunately that was not the case with the 2 diners who were already on the patio when we arrived. Those 2 were loud and they each took phone calls and later FaceTime calls, shouting while on the phone and sprawled out in a seating area for 6 as if it was their own private party and they were oblivious to other diners. We found ourselves wondering why those 2 diners had been given a larger comfortable area and we’d been crammed into a tiny table. When we left 1.5 hours later at 6:45, there was still ample seating on the patio. Only 3 tables occupied. Our bill was $153 plus a $30 tip. Valet parking is very short staffed and quite a frustrating experience that we had to wait awhile for our car after dinner as the restaurant was filling up at 7pm on Sunday 6/26. Kym’s has been a long-time favorite of ours, but after this experience, we do not plan to return.

I am sure I just chose the wrong dish. Lamb pasta was too heavy of a meal-not used to rich type of food. Desserts were amazing. Definitely recommend the sampler one. They did bring the baklava for my boyfriend’s birthday celebration which was great. Overall a positive experience.

The food at Kyma is amazing. Chef Pana does an excellent array of choices that are all delicious. The fresh fish fileted tableside is wonderful. Our son had the lamb chops and said they were tender and delicious as well. All the appetizers don't disappoint.....especially the lobster and tuna.

Kyma, as always, was excellent. In my opinion, this is one the most consistently good restaurants in Atlanta. We started with pita and chickpea hummus followed by the grape leaves and spinach pie, all superb. My wife had lemon potatoes and kale, and I enjoyed the very delicious lavraki with kale, olive oil, lemon, and capers. We ate in the covered porch outside, which was fine, though a little hot. A DJ was playing music inside, and there was a speaker right next to me. At first, he was playing traditional Greek music. However, most of what was played throughout the evening was some type of techno music. I didn't really care for it at all.

Great service. We tried Chef Pano’s five course tastings: Appetizer and Whole Fish Tasting: Assortment of Spreads and Wood Grilled Pita were tasty. Octopus was flavorful but a little bit too chewy. Soft- Shelled Crab and Lamb Pie were delicious. The whole fish of Lavraki was done very well. The problem was we were constantly bugged by a fly. The Women’s bathroom: one was out of order and the other, the door lock was not working.

This was a our 2nd visit to Kyma and we had a great time! The food is always delicious, well presented and fresh. The staff is friendly and welcoming and professional. If you aren't a fan of seafood, this probably isn't the place for you. Lots of choices on the menu and a great drink menu as well. The restaurant was clean and had plenty of tables available. Definitely not crowded. Could probably use a little updating with regards to decorating, but otherwise good condition. I noticed the same lights on the wall that were out last time we visited, were still out. So I'm guessing decor isn't a top priority right now. The music they had playing the night we were there didn't seem to go with the ambiance of the restaurant, but my opinion of course. Our server was great - explained the dishes to us and was very attentive. Overall wonderful dinner experience and we would recommend!

We normally love everything about Kyma, however last night our experience differed. I realize we were only a party of two, but that should have no difference in the service we received. First my drink had to be replaced because of a black particle floating around. It took an abnormally long time to be replaced. Then our appetizers came separately which made no sense since one appetizer was oysters, which are cold. They were served first while the other appetizer didn’t arrive until much later. We normally like to eat together. A second drink didn’t arrive until after the meal was finished. All in all, the food was very good. We probably will wait a while for a return visit.

Food was really good but we were a little disappointed with the service. The person who was refilling our water decided to pick up our appetizer plates from under us while we were still eating. Did it so fast we didn't even have time to say anything as our mouths were full

I spilled my mojito because the table was kind of slanted. When I asked for another without being charged for 2 I was told they had to ask the manager. I thought that was tacky. They did make me another at no charge but were not gracious about it. The dinner was delicious but very expensive!

Food was magnificent! We did the tasting menu with 4 apps and specialty entree and the sweetbreads and lobster morsels were exquisite. The pork ribs were fall off the bone tender. The drinks were fantastic. The service was great. Our waiter was personable and very engaging. All around a wonderful meal and experience. My husband and I both like to think of ourselves as foodies and I would say this is one of our favorite restaurants in the country.

We had the lamb chops and a fish dish. Both were perfectly prepared and very good. For dessert we had the small mountain of delicious Greek donuts which would have been perfect for 4 people. The staff was very helpful and friendly, not to mention well trained. Overall, a very nice dining experience.
