Alma Cocina Restaurant Coming To Buckhead

Mexican restaurant Alma Cocina has become a happening place to eat in Midtown, so they’re bringing that Latin flavor to Buckhead.

Fifth Group Restaurants announced this week that the popular spot for Margaritas, burritos and taco dishes will break ground on a 7,000-square-foot spot in the Terminus development at the corner of Piedmont and Peachtree avenues.

Set to open in 2019, the new Alma Cocina will take the place of the former Bricktop eatery.

“Buckhead has been a major area of growth for Fifth Group in the past several years – we opened South City Kitchen Buckhead in 2016 and Ecco Buckhead is slated to open later this year,” Robby Kukler, a Fifth Group partner, said in a press release, according to What Now Atlanta.

“In our 25th year as a restaurant group, we’re excited to share our plans for an expanded presence further on Peachtree Street as we bring Alma Cocina’s energy and flair to the Buckhead neighborhood.”
