It may be a surprise to some, but  Aviva by Kameel  is at the top of Yelp's list  of the Top 50 Places to Eat in Metro Atlanta.

According to the sometimes controversial rating site, the family owned and operated restaurant from chef Kameel Srouji is “a Mediterranean joint in the food hall at Peachtree Center where Yelpers rave about the lamb shawarma, rosemary chicken and eggplant ratatouille.” 
This is how Yelp explains the methodology behind the list:
 To create this list, we ranked local, non-chain businesses in Metro Atlanta (defined as Fulton, DeKalb, Gwinnett, Cobb, Clayton, Coweta, Douglas, Fayette, and Henry counties) based on the number of reviews and their star rating, giving more weight to recent reviews. 

And the Top 10, according to Yelpers:

1. Aviva by Kameel (Atlanta)

2. Myzenes Indian Coastal Cuisine (Suwanee)

3. gusto! Wood Fire Grill (Atlanta)

4. Purnima Bangladeshi Cuisine (Atlanta)

5. Flying Roll (Duluth)

6. Desta Ethiopian Kitchen (Atlanta)

7. Neighborhood Eats (Atlanta)

8. Canoe (Atlanta)

9. Foundation Social Eatery (Roswell)

10. Rico’s World Kitchen (Buford)
