Dinner with a Show: Gunshow
For those looking to break from the usual restaurant ritual, Kevin Gillespie’s corner in Glenwood Park is the answer.
Expense Account Meal: Bone’s
Since 1979, Buckhead suits have filed into our city’s oldest steakhouse for deftly seared rib-eyes, polished waiters in starched whites, and a 20,000-bottle wine list that even has a magnum of the cult wine Screaming Eagle.
Food Court: The Great Wall Supermarket
One part grocery store and one part food court, this Duluth market is a magnet for the local Chinese community.
Coffee: Octane
Give yourself over to the masters behind the brew bar, where baristas—who look too cool but are actually helpful—serve seasonal, single-origin brews.
Southern Diner: Home Grown
At an institution that seems a lot older than it is, co-owner Kevin Clark provides an invaluable sense of place and history with classics that highlight our city’s roots.
Second Act: Asha Gomez
Four days. That’s all it took for Gomez to rebound after locking the door to Cardamom Hill, which attracted national attention but not enough local allegiance.

We aren’t surprised that a bunch of alums from Brick Store Pub and Leon’s Full Service are causing a ruckus—locally and nationally—in a remodeled train depot in Decatur.
Brunch: One Eared Stag
Think brunch is boring? Tell that to Robert Phalen, who tops fluffy biscuits with fried chicken and a rich sausage gravy and nestles soft-poached eggs in a bed of curried chickpeas.
Farm to Table: Cakes & Ale
In a city obsessed with local ingredients, Billy and Kristin Allin are our shining stars from their charming nook in downtown Decatur.
