The Optimist
At Ford Fry’s stylishly nautical seafood restaurant, there are many ways to plot a course to an ideal meal.
The General Muir
In seven years, the General Muir has become indispensable for its upscale Jewish deli–inspired menu.
Bread & Butterfly
If you miss Billy Allin’s now-shuttered Cakes & Ale (and who doesn’t?), know that you can now find the master of simplicity himself behind the stove at his ever-so-French, all-day cafe: Bread & Butterfly.
The White Bull
It takes balls—and a stiff drink—to attempt to tell stories with food the way Hemingway did with a typewriter. Chef Pat Pascarella and beverage director Matt Scott go for it at the White Bull on Decatur Square.
Restaurant Eugene
When he opened Restaurant Eugene in 2004, chef Linton Hopkins expanded Atlanta’s fine-dining canon to include food that’s more Southern and farm-driven but equally fancy.
Twisted Soul Cookhouse & Pours
Everything about Chef Deborah VanTrece, whose personality is the clear inspiration behind her restaurant’s name, is original.
El Rey del Taco
El Rey del Taco means “the king of the taco,” and it lives up to its name.
