This place has been here for 20+ years, and you can see why. NY quality bagels , with salmon , or any of the toppings...take it to go or sit in...it's crowded for good reason. Fantastic salmon/lox.

Sweet tooth getting to you? Don't fight it! Try a slice of Midnight cake here. The silky white chocolate mousse sandwiched between three layers of moist chocolate cake keeps things light and yummy. Read more

The Opera cake features layers of almond sponge cake soaked in coffee syrup , decadent bittersweet ganache , and luscious espresso buttercream , mingling beneath a sheet of glossy chocolate glaze. Read more

What a fantastic, fun, bustling place. The tomato basil soup was delicious. As were the chicken pesto and smoked mozzarella sandwiches .

You can't go wrong here. Yummy lemon macarons ! Try sitting outside on the patio for a delish Sunday brunch or weekdays lunch . I love that Alon's is a health-conscious place like Whole Foods.

Despite being absolutely the best prepared and small batch deliciousness, prices are competitive with whole foods. You can whip together a gourmet meal on a moments notice

Everything that we have ever eaten here has been very tasty. If you have not been here yet, You really must try it as you will not be disappointed at all. Tasty is a major understatement...

A slice of Alon's Midnight cake , one of CL's 100 Dishes to eat before you die, is reminiscent of sweetened cocoa powder and airy whipped cream . Read more

My favorite spot from Atlanta. Must visit. Get a cup of cappucino and enjoy their bakery and dessert section. Yum ♥

Amazing bakery - cakes , pastries , breads and broad cheese selection . Also good sandwiches and salads , plus pre-made sides.

Peruse the deli for artisan salads like Kale , curried Couscous , and chick peas with feta and roasted red peppers . A plateful of each at about $3 a pop

Excellent Bakery products ans selection of pantry items

breakfast is lacking. I got the egg white panini with turkey sausage that was less than half the size of the rest of the sandwich .... go for lunch instead. the chicken with pesto sandwich is great.

One if Atlanta's culinary gems! Great sandwiches and pretty much everything here is amazing.

Think Panera for a more discerning crowd -- with a LOT of fun stuff to offer. Drink variety and fresh deli items are highlights in addition to breads .

Try the Iced Coffee , Egg Salad Sandwich , Chocolate Croissant , & Pistachio Croissant - Breakfast goodies pick-up by Mi Planet! Thank you!

Daily pressed panini selection are the way to go! And can't go wrong with a big quick salad .

It simply doesn't get better than Alon's. Try the cinamon sticks for breakfast , chicken pesto sandwich for lunch , and anything to-go for dinner .

Try the Peppered Turkey on Multi Grain and add avocado !! It's my favorite sandwich in the whole world. And trust me, I would know. :)

Great sandwiches , and some spots to sit out front and enjoy the weather.

The pistachio croissant is one of the best I've ever had.

Exceptional baked goods . Try: Gruyerre scone , chocolate croissant , Valrhona chocolate truffle cake , double chocolate cookie , apple babke, multigrain roll (very German), bagel , rye bread .

I like the way they pack their sandwiches . The veggie sandwich is actually much more flavorful than meat sandwiches .

The cookies here are to die for! They are expensive but worth every penny (6 bite-sized cookies for about $7).

Roasted Chicken Pesto is great and the Chicken Lime Tortilla Soup is phenomenal!

If you bring a glass bottle , Alon's will fill it up with high quality extra virgin olive oil for a fairly low price!

Bring chocolate chunk pecan bites to your next office party. They're perfect and everyone will think you baked them yourself.

Chef Alon Balshan 's combination of hanger steak , brisket and chuck results in a patty that is full of beefy goodness and studded with a mouth-watering amount of fat. Read more

Almond croissant is SOOOO unbelievably good here. Paired with an iced coffee , you can't go wrong.

Their fine chopped liver is out of control good. As is everything else here.

Pistachio and almond croissants are my favorites, but get them early, they sell quick.

You can do Paleo ! Stopped in and got Pan Seared Tuna , just the perfect amount of protein!

Warm chocolate croissant .. OMG!! So good.

Cute bakery ! Good macaroons .

Good bread . Great lamb sandwich .

Very good food veggie sandwich was good

Awesome baked goods ...the mini cookies are the best, especially the raspberry filled ones.

The best shrimp tacos in the highlands!!!! And they're not even on the regular menu.

Alon’s is SOOOOO good!

Get the gruyere pannini . You won't be disappointed.

Fantastic pecan pies .
