Here Are The Best New Restaurants In Atlanta

The Buckhead steakhouse trend contain delicious fashion. New Atlanta restaurant Clark’s Steakhouse officially opens its doors today, Thursday, April 23, 2026.
The eatery is welcoming guests to its prime location on the ground floor of the 2827 Peachtree building in Atlanta’s Buckhead neighborhood (specifically the Garden Hills area, near Fellini’s).
Clark’s Steakhouse Opens Its Doors in Buckhead
The new steakhouse seamlessly marries the sophisticated grandeur of a classic New York steakhouse with the warm, inviting spirit of the American South—a fusion evident in its design, menu, and overall hospitality.
Owner Rich Clark, the force behind the popular C&S Seafood and Oyster Bar restaurants across metro Atlanta, has long dreamed of launching his own steakhouse. “A steakhouse has always been in the back of my mind,” Clark shared. “I never wanted to force it; I was waiting for the right space and the right moment to do it justice. When this opportunity came along, it just clicked and felt like the natural next step. This has been a passion project through and through, and finally bringing it to life has been incredibly rewarding.”
The 6,000-square-foot space offers 170 seats, including an intimate 18-seat private dining room known as The Policy Room.
This elegant venue is designed to transition effortlessly from business lunches to celebratory dinners. Anchoring the main dining area is a striking 30-seat racetrack-style bar featuring rich walnut finishes and plush burgundy velvet barstools.
Design firm Z-Space helped Clark realize his vision, drawing inspiration from New York and Charleston. The moody interiors radiate understated luxury through rich wood millwork, custom terrazzo flooring, and Scalamandré velvet accents.
Layered textures and softly dimmed lighting foster a warm, intimate atmosphere perfect for lingering over a meal
To ground the space in its Atlanta roots, the art collection includes framed portraits of influential local figures such as Ted Turner, John Portman, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and Andrew Young.
In the kitchen, Executive Chef Zan Malik leads a team focused on live-fire cooking.
What’s on the Menu at Clark’s Steakhouse?
The menu highlights premium Meat by Linz prime steak cuts—including wet- and dry-aged options, Japanese and local Wagyu—alongside Clark’s signature 22 oz. wet-aged LHA reserve prime lollipop ribeye.
For those seeking wild game, offerings include Venison Chop, Duck Breast, and Quail Sausage from the Meat and Cheese Boards. True to Clark’s seafood heritage, the menu also features standout dishes like Salmon Wellington and Wood-Grilled Branzino.
Shareable Southern-inspired sides such as Savory Whipped Sweet Potato, Pommes Anna, and Mile High Fries complete the savory selections, while desserts deliver a nostalgic close, headlined by a Coca-Cola German Chocolate Cake inspired by Clark’s grandmother’s recipe.
The beverage program stands out as a particular strength.
Certified Sommelier and Director of Operations and Beverage Alexa Robertson curated a robust 550-selection wine list emphasizing terroir-driven wines from iconic regions including Bordeaux, Burgundy, Rhône, Napa, and Italy.
Bordeaux forms a centerpiece, offering one of Atlanta’s most expansive selections, while higher-acid wines from Burgundy and the Loire Valley pair beautifully with seafood.
Italian varietals shine with red meats, and a thoughtfully chosen Champagne and sparkling program suits celebrations or lighter starts to the meal.
“When I first began working for Rich, one of the things I most admired was his wine list,” Robertson said. “Building the wine list for this steakhouse has been especially fulfilling. It’s shaped by travel and research, bringing together timeless classics alongside new, exciting selections for our wine-loving guests.”
What’s To Drink at Clark’s Steakhouse?
Complementing the wine is a focused cocktail program featuring signature and seasonal creations.
Standouts include the Clark’s Martini, Haute Cosmo, and the Aztec Ember Old Fashioned (made with Don Fulano Añejo Tequila, Mezcal Rinse, Agave Nectar, Mole & Orange Bitters).
Current seasonal options like the Sauna Culture (Breckenridge Aquavit, Mixed Berry Cordial, St. Germain, Chambord, Lemon, and Pine Soda) rotate throughout the year, with non-alcoholic mocktails available as well.
Clark emphasized the care taken in every detail: “We really took our time with this, traveling to places like Texas, New York, Charleston, and London, seeing what resonated and what didn’t. It was important to me that we got it right, not just in the kitchen but in the entire atmosphere. At the end of the day, we wanted to build a steakhouse that feels elevated and transportive, like you’ve stepped out of Atlanta for the night. I’m excited for people to come in and experience it for themselves.”
Clark’s Steakhouse will serve dinner Monday through Friday from 3:00 PM to 10:00 PM, Saturday from 4:00 PM to 10:00 PM, and Sunday from 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM. Lunch service begins Monday, May 4, and will run Monday through Friday from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM.

Final Word

Atlanta, GA – April 13, 2026 – With National Peach Cobbler Day long gone, Atlanta foodies still crave one of the South’s most beloved desserts.
As Georgia’s Peach Capital, Atlanta proudly embraces this sweet treat, honoring the juicy, tree-ripened peaches that define our culinary heritage.
Where To Get Peach Cobbler in Atlanta
Peach cobbler traces its roots to the 19th century, when resourceful settlers combined fresh fruit with simple biscuit or batter toppings in cast-iron pans over open fires.
In Georgia, it evolved into a soul food staple—warm, spiced peaches bubbling under a golden, flaky crust, often served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Whether enjoyed at family gatherings, church suppers, or Atlanta’s iconic restaurants, peach cobbler represents comfort, community, and the unmistakable taste of home. With Georgia producing millions of bushels of peaches each year, today is the perfect excuse to indulge in this timeless treat.

- Cord-Cutters: Braves.TV + a national live TV streamer (e.g., Fubo or YouTube TV) covers the majority of games.
- For the most up-to-date channel listings and provider availability, visit the official Braves page: mlb.com/braves/schedule/watch.
This setup gives Braves fans more direct access and control over local broadcasts while maintaining traditional TV options where available. The transition from the previous Bally Sports/FanDuel Sports Network South/Southeast model marks a significant shift toward team-operated distribution.

Atlanta, GA | April 2026 — In the heart of Kirkwood, where tree-lined streets meet a tight-knit community vibe, Urban Pie has been slinging pies for over 20 years.Tucked at 2012A Hosea L. Williams Dr. NE, this casual pizzeria and bar feels like your favorite local hangout—unpretentious, dog-friendly on the patio, and always buzzing with regulars.
I recent ate there and wanted to share my thoughts around it in case you’re in Kirkwood and want a good Atlanta pizza place.
The Vibe
Urban Pie nails that perfect Atlanta neighborhood spot balance: laid-back indoor seating with a cool, relaxed energy and a spacious patio ideal for people-watching or catching a game.
Staff are genuinely friendly and attentive, often treating you like family
It’s the kind of place where you can grab a quick slice and a craft beer or settle in for a full meal with friends. Bonus: free street parking and options nearby after hours.
The Food
Urban Pie specializes in thin, crispy New York-style crust with just the right chew—nothing soggy here when eaten fresh.

They offer a solid mix of signature pies, build-your-own options, wings (13 flavors!), salads, calzones, and even gluten-free and vegan choices that don’t feel like afterthoughts.
Standout Dishes We Tried/Loved:
- The Urban Pizza: Olive oil base, roasted garlic, spinach, roasted red peppers, feta, and mozzarella. Fresh, flavorful, and a great showcase of their veggie-forward creativity.
- Urban Beets: Homemade pesto, roasted veggies, and goat cheese (or vegan cheese swap). A standout for both meat-eaters and plant-based diners.
- BBQ Chicken or Kirkwood BBQ Chicken Pie: Sweet-smoky sauce, roasted chicken, smoked gouda, red onions, and scallions—comfort food done right.
- Other notables include creative options like Pickle Pie, Vegan Chorizo, or Thunderbird Pizza. Wings and truffle fries also get frequent shoutouts.
Portions are generous, prices are reasonable (most large pies around $24–$25), and the kitchen puts care into the details
Fresh ingredients shine, especially on the creative toppings. Note: Takeout can sometimes lose a bit of that fresh-from-the-oven crispness, so dine-in is ideal when possible.
Drinks & Extras
They’ve got a nice selection of craft brews (many local), plus other beverages. Desserts are creative if you’ve got room left. Events like bingo nights on the patio add extra fun to the community feel.
The Verdict
Urban Pie earns a solid 8.2/10 from us. It’s not chasing trends or fine-dining polish—it’s delivering reliable, tasty thin-crust pizzas in a welcoming neighborhood setting.
Perfect for weeknight dinners, casual gatherings, or supporting a longtime Kirkwood business.
Some variability in service during busy times or with delivery is noted in reviews, but the overall love from locals (and creative menu) keeps us coming back.
If you’re in East Atlanta/Kirkwood, stop by. Great pizza, good friends, zero pressure—just how neighborhood spots should be.
