About Slice Yard
Slice Yard is a beloved neighborhood mediterranean spot in Atlanta, GA, with a no-frills feel and open kitchen seating with a view of the line cooks. The kitchen leans into mediterranean done well, partnering with regional farms whenever possible.
The signature item to try first is the Chicken Shawarma, which has earned a loyal following. The rest of the menu rounds it out with options like Falafel Wrap, Lamb Gyro, Hummus Plate, plus rotating specials that change with the season. Portions are generous for the price point ($$), and the kitchen is consistent — orders come out fast even when the place is full.
On a typical day you'll find a steady mix of office workers, students, and curious tourists, especially around the lunch and dinner rushes. The bar pours craft sodas, local kombucha on tap, and house-brewed iced tea. Most dishes can be made dairy-free on request. The dining room is clean, the music is at a reasonable volume, and the wifi works.
For ordering, you can text ahead to skip the line during the lunch rush. The price-to-quality ratio is what brings most people back a second time. Whether you're new to Atlanta or a longtime resident hunting for a reliable mediterranean fix, Slice Yard earns a spot in the regular rotation.

Came here on a whim during my lunch break and I'm hooked. The Greek Salad was easily the best version I've had this year. Friendly staff, fast service, and they actually got my order right the first time. Will be back next week.
Brought the family on a Saturday and we all walked out happy. Kids loved their food, my partner ordered the Chicken Shawarma and finished every bite. Prices feel fair for the portions. The dining room was a little loud but that's expected on weekends.
Slice Yard has become my regular weekday lunch. Consistent quality, generous portions, and the staff has started to recognize me. I usually grab the Lamb Gyro but I've worked through most of the menu and haven't had a miss yet.
Mixed feelings. The Lamb Gyro was excellent and the cashier was friendly, but my side came out cold and they were out of two of the things I wanted to order. Probably worth another try, but not the experience I was hoping for.
Solid spot. The Falafel Wrap is a standout — bold flavors, well-seasoned, comes out hot. Took off a star only because the wait at the counter was longer than I expected on a weekday. Still, I'd come back without hesitation.
Honestly impressed. We tried three different items between the table and the Greek Salad stole the show. The staff genuinely seemed to enjoy being there which makes a difference. Cannot recommend enough.
