The First Timer’s Guide To Eating & Drinking In Atlanta - Atlanta
"The General Muir is about as close to a real New York deli as you’ll find in the South, and while it’s open all day, breakfast and brunch are where this place really shines. This casual spot in Toco Hills serves classics likes latkes, pastrami hash, and bagels and lox, along with plenty of other dishes that’ll make you wonder how anyone ever got anything done after breakfast in 1930s New York. Since it’s right next to Emory, The General Muir is always packed first thing in the morning, but this is one place that we actually think is worth the wait."

"There was a time in Atlanta when, try as you might, you just couldn’t find a good matzo ball soup nor a decent Reuben with corned beef and sauerkraut on rye. All that changed when The General Muir entered the picture. In just five years, this stand out deli-café has become an indispensable part of Atlanta’s breakfast scene as an upscale New York-style Jewish deli and café."

"After years of serving classic, white-tablecloth fine dining, chef Gerry Klaskala remodeled his Buckhead staple restaurant to appeal to a younger generation of diners. Now it’s a bit more relaxed and casual — there’s a walk-in ready bar and lounge for drinks and snacks for an impromptu night out. The kitchen consistently cranks out Aria favorites, like butter braised lobster, slow braised pork, and lump crab cakes."

"West Midtown may be a wonderland for gourmands but the bar options remain underwhelming. One exception is Ormsby's, a two-storey gastropub nearly hidden beneath the White Provision building (a 1910 meat-packing plant, recently refurbished as a posh urban market). The enormous tavern doubles as a lively adult playground, with two bocce ball courts, pool tables, skee ball, shuffleboard and darts."

"In a town where new restaurants open almost daily, it's heartwarming to see an old favorite maintain a loyal following. Opened in 1998 in an industrial office complex along the railroad tracks between Emory and Virginia-Highland, this charming restaurant still feels like a discovery. The kitchen's deep commitment to seasonality and supporting sustainable purveyors is evident in dishes like burrata with plum compote and grilled sourdough, smoked paprika tagliatelle tossed with rich duck bolognese, and blue crab fritters with green tomato chow-chow."
