The Best. That’s a food you can find in Atlanta is in various places around the city. There are pork chops on the south side that are hard to beat. Steak in Buckhead is impeccable. Barbecue on the east side is No. 1.

But without a doubt, if you want to find an establishment that pretty much has it all: top-notch service, awesome food, great atmosphere and more, there are some staples that are hard to ignore.

Here are the top eateries in ATL, according to Trip Advisor.

Bone’s Restaurant

1,511 reviews

#2 of 3,293 Restaurants in Atlanta. A reviewer says: “A wonderful place for fine dining in Atlanta. Having been several times it never disappoints with exceptional service and superior quality steaks. An ample wine list and classy atmosphere make it a perfect location to enjoy fine dining at its best.

Chama Gaucha Brazilian Steakhouse

284 reviews

#3 of 3,293 Restaurants in Atlanta. A reviewer says: “This place is a lot better that other places with recognized names in town. The service is awesome! I’ve been here a few times and all the time has been great. Even the valet parking guys are very nice! This restaurant can be compared to Fogo di Ciao, but with more options. An unforgettable experience.”

Desta Ethiopian Kitchen

381 reviews

#4 of 3,293 Restaurants in Atlanta. A reviewer says “Hands down the best Ethopian food we’ve ever had! Couldn’t decide what we wanted to order, so we went with the Vegetarian Platter and the Original Meat Lovers (we picked salmon, lamb, and filet mignon). Amaaaaazing! Every single bite was delicious!!! Highly recommended.”

Capital Grille

616 reviews

#5 of 3,293 Restaurants in Atlanta. A reviewer says “Some businesses and companies achieve true greatness: Lexus with cars, Apple with computers. Jaeger LeCoultre with watches. This is one of those places. Truly exceptional. The bone-in filet and porcini-rubbed ribeye were simply first rate – better even than local specialists like Rathbun’s and Bone’s, or out-of-state legends like Peter Luger’s. These folks know what they’re doing. The ambiance and service are first rate as well. Come here when you want the best.”

Canoe

1,858 reviews

#6 of 3,293 Restaurants in Atlanta. A reviewer says “I had heard so many good things about this place and was finally able to try it out with a friend on a Friday evening. It did not disappoint. I called on Thursday evening and was able to get a reservation for two on a Friday evening at 6:45 pm. We had on jeans and a nice shirt, but I would probably recommend at least khakis and a nice shirt as a minimum. Make sure you turn on your GPS, because it is a bit strange to find. But, we arrived on time and were promptly seated. The place is very rustic chic, but gorgeous and inviting. We were seated right by a window, but unfortunately, it was dark out, so we could not take in the spectacular views. We started with some Pino Noir and the fried oysters (special) and kangaroo as appetizers. Both were simply amazing. I had never tried kangaroo and I absolutely loved it. Also, they bring several bread options to the table and you have as much as you want. The sourdough was my favorite. For dinner, I had the swordfish, which was delicious. My friend had the monk fish, which was a special. His was delicious, as well. For dessert, I had the popcorn ice cream sundae with cracker jacks. It was beyond amazing and quite a sizable portion. My friend had the chocolate grotto, which was great, as well. The service was spot on the prices were reasonable. I would recommend this place for an intimate dinner or small group. Additionally, they have a small party room that would be great for a higher end work or personal function. This is now truly one of my favorite places in Atlanta and I plan on coming back, soon.”
