ATL Restaurant Stars: Friends of Peter

I surveyed 23 trusted friends for their opinions on the “best” restaurants in Atlanta. But how does one quantify the “best”?

We broke nominations into three different categories:

  1. Overall favorite
  2. “Chill” – under the radar, hidden gem, a true dive
  3. “Fancy” – anniversary, birthday, parents visiting town (and likely paying)

I then tallied up the number of times each spot was mentioned, earning a star for each occurrence. Voila! We have a winning list. In total it is 70 restaurants. I am a bit disheartened to see I have only been to 18 of them.

I will say it is quite interesting to see how people categorize places, especially when a restaurant ends up with multiple tags. Shoutout to Rumi’s Kitchen for landing all three.

If you live in Atlanta – hit me up ASAP and let’s try some places! I am around until mid June before I start traveling and eventually make the move to New York. I only have a few weeks left to do some damage to this bucket list.

If you don’t live in Atlanta – now you have a list when you visit. Use responsibly.

Happy eating,

Peter
