Atlanta folks

[themysteriouswife]

Where do I want H to take me for date night? It's my birthday dinner. I would like to stay north and not a national chain. I live on the West Cobb line.

This Bostonian has no advice for you, but I wanted to pipe in with a "Happy Birthday!"

Foundation Social Eatery in Roswell. Hands down my favorite restaurant.

Henry's?

I forget that's there! We hardly go downtown Acworth. Perfect location too.

Have you tried Aspen's steakhouse? There is one in East and West Cobb.

I'm not familiar with Atlanta geography, but when I went for work a couple years ago, we went to Seasons 52 in Buckhead and holy crap it was amazing.

[SwimDeep]

I'm more on the east side of the Atlanta area, but I would like to wish you a very happy birthday!

I've heard good things about the Old Mill restaurant, but I've never actually been there (although I've always wanted to go).

Little Alley in Roswell. It's a steakhouse and I don't even eat meat, but I love it.

[funfetti]

I was just in Atlanta and my favorite meal was at Poor Charlie's. If it's not in your geography, make an exception. Look at this dessert - It was amazing!

Table and Main in downtown Roswell

[miso]

I want to eat at Gunshow, Miller Union, Kimball House, Eat Me Speak Me, Cakes & Ale, and Staplehouse.

I haven't and I live like 5 minutes from the avenues.  And my H loves steak. I don't know why we haven't tried it!

Trackside Grill in downtown Kennesaw is pretty good too. I like Henry's better though. Bread pudding, yum!

We love Trackside.

I love how you are a foodie. You can give recommendations for all over the US. <3

But they're not recs if I've never been!

Consider it my eating wish list.

I just looked at James Beard nominees. LOL.

I think it has newer owners. It's Gabriel's now. I just looked them up. It gets a big fat no for date night. That's family night and kids eat for $.99. I think we will try them for breakfast on a Saturday

Poor Calvin's? I can't find a Poor Charlie's

[funfetti]

Ha! Yep, you're right. I was calling it Charlie's all weekend.

[womet]

Canoe. It's in Vinings.

This is close to H's work. I could meet him there!

I'm bookmarking this post for future ideas too.

Too far for the amount of time we have. I did suggest it to him for a Saturday when my parents are here to watch the kids.

We went there for lunch last month - yummy

Gurl. You get me.

We went for Valentine's. You can really not go wrong there. And if it wasn't Pollen Spooge Season I'd recommend sitting outside. But no. That is not a good idea for the rest of the season.

But north of you? Henry's is always good

[RandZB]

Bone's, Bacchanalia, Restaurant Eugene, Cakes & Ale, Gunshow, The Optimist.

I park my car in the garage. It was nice and shiny today. Then I went to the store. I may sneeze my head off going into the garage tomorrow. It's almost green.

Gunshow, Bacchanalia, and Canoe are going to be difficult to get reservations for on short notice. Ditto the other recs for Table & Main, Little Alley, Aspen's, and Foundation Social Eatery. I'd add Salt Factory and Stoney River (for steak).

I think I've eaten at all of these places for my birthday or anniversaries...
