First visit to Adriatic Grill and first real introduction to Bosnian food, and what a great way to start.
From the outside, it’s unassuming. Walk in, and you realize this place is about the food, not flash. The space is casual and comfortable, bright pink walls, simple seating, and a relaxed neighborhood vibe. It feels like somewhere locals actually eat, which is always a good sign.
We ordered a traditional Bosnian style sandwich (cevapi) and a fresh salad loaded with cucumbers, red onions, olives, and a generous snowfall of feta. The bread was warm and soft, the grilled meat flavorful and juicy, and the creamy sauce tied everything together perfectly. Simple ingredients, done right. You can taste the pride in the cooking.
The menu boards are easy to follow, the staff was friendly and helpful for a first-timer, and the dessert case looked dangerous in the best way with cheesecakes, chocolate creations, and more lined up like a reward for good decisions.
If you’ve never had Bosnian food before, this is a great place to try it. It’s hearty, fresh, and comforting without being heavy. Definitely worth the visit, and I’ll be back to explore more of the menu.

Great food and great service! Very nice inside and so many options. Huge desert selection. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for authentic Eastern European food.

Good, but there are many better. The donner kabob was tasty and large. Also had the fries and Greek salad. Fries were standard. Salad was good, but needed a little more dressing and non-lettuce veg. Counter service style restaurant with some seating. Dessert selection looked great, though we didn’t get anything.

Have been a long time customer whenever we are in the area. Previous owners always had excellent food and excellent portions. We moved away and when we returned there were new owners. The food was still good a we felt like it was a good value. Today was VERY disappointing. We ordered the mixed plate. It came wrapped in foil and looked horrible. Small skinny piece of dry chicken, sausage with skin peeling off, the fries were SO undercooked and the salad was small, sad and wilted. We paid $25 for this. The small cevapi was also just wrapped in foil and very unappealing. The Reuben Sandwich looked decent but was not completely wrapped and was halfway out of the foil. For $50 you would think they could use containers for to go orders. I know inflation has affected everyone but it felt like a restaurant that no longer cares about customer satisfaction. We will look elsewhere for Mediterranean food in the future.

Vanna was the cashier that took our order. She was very nice, helpful, and patient.
My husband and I travel to Atlanta twice a year for a doctor's appointment. We make sure to always stop at The Adriatic Grille as we travel through. We love their Ćevapi. It's a Balkan skinless sausage and it's fantastic! We have not been able to find it anywhere else near us.
I enjoyed mine in a wrap and my husband ate his plain with fries. It was delicious as always! Can't wait for the next trip!
They also have a wide variety of tasty desserts as you can see in my pictures.
