Not saying anything about GraphQL in particular as I have almost no experience with it in practice, but there are cases where REST is simply unbeatable, especially if you're very comfortable with it: Simple APIs, encapsulating simple data models. Often you can get away with using the simplest and most common (client- and server-side) frameworks available to implement those, and that's all that's needed.
