Best Restaurants in Atlanta

Atlanta’s food scene is one of the most dynamic in the South — from the James Beard Award winners to the international corridor on Buford Highway to the BeltLine restaurants redefining neighborhood dining.

Southern & Soul Food

Mary Mac’s Tea Room (Midtown) — Since 1945. The definitive Atlanta Southern restaurant. Fried chicken, pot likker (collard green broth with cornbread), fried green tomatoes, and banana pudding. Everyone from business executives to tourists eats here.
