Guidebook for Decatur and Atlanta
Food Scene
This is, by far, our family favorite! However, it's insanely popular so get there at opening and you can be one of the first in line. The tacos are addictive and the salsa trio is a must. We order three "frescas" instead of the normal fresca, verde, chipotle trio. Order a pitcher of their amazing margaritas. Be sure to ask for "the George". It's a secret menu item of beans, rice, and delicious spicy greens.

Delicious small sandwiches and don't forget to order a jack and coke slushy! This restaurant tends to attract a youngish/hipster crowd and the music can be bit loud sometimes. The food and drinks make it worth it!

It's right up the street from us and has a heated patio! The food is good and they have vegetarian options as well. We love to stop by on our way home from downtown for a cocktail. Make sure to check out their bocce ball court on the Church Street side.

no. 246 is an Italian restaurant and their food and wine selection is fantastic, but it's all about their "backyard". They have a really great patio in the back that really feels like you're hanging out on your friend's back porch. They also serve a delicious brunch!
