Bismillah Cafe

We mostly order takeout so the atmosphere at those times is good, but guys - the food and service is where it’s at. Their dishes are on another level, especially their biryanis and samosas. The service is always amazing, too. The same close-knit group of guys are still there and they know their customers. Even though we live about 25 miles away, we’ll keep going back every time we get a hankering for their food.

We catered the mixed chicken/gyro biryani twice in one week from here and both times they exceeded expectations. It’s really hard to get such a large quantity of food to have so much flavor but they definitely did it! The rice was soft, packed with meat, and tasted very fresh. Obviously, the green sauce took it up a notch. I personally wouldn’t eat it without the green sauce but that’s just me!

So, the owners finally moved into their new building, about 100 feet away from their original location (You can't miss it!). Saturday, 08/26/2023, was their grand opening. They were giving out a free plate of rice (no protein) with every purchase as part of their grand opening. I got 10 chicken samosas and 10 veggie samosas. The veggie samosas were on point, but the chicken samosas were dry. The rice was good (my 9-year-old approved). As for the atmosphere, they could've turned on the AC for such a hot afternoon. Not a deal breaker since I got my order To Go, but my waiting time was a little uncomfortable. I eat there once or twice a month, so I'll be going back there soon. I'll take some photos next time. I'll include some Google directions, too.

Found this place through other Google reviews so we made a stop on the way to Atlanta. Wow! We ordered the combination biryani and the grilled beef shawarma. Food was great. We stopped at Bismillah #2. The guy who ran the register was great. He was welcoming, accommodating with recommendations. Will definitely return when we go back to Atlanta next time!
