"Thank you to everyone who shared a meal, a laugh, a celebration, or a quiet night with us along the way," reads the caption on Alici's Instagram post. "While this chapter is coming to a close, the story isn't over. What comes next is already taking shape, and we can't wait to share it when the time is right." Pascarella, who owns the Porchetta Group, also runs Michelin-recommended the White Bull in Decatur and three locations of Grana.
The Peruvian sweetheart in the city, Tio Lucho's, gave into brunch this year with its own refreshing twist - with salads, ceviche, and avocado toast with egg salad. The Ceviche Carretillero, in particular, is an umami treat. The base is leche de tigre and red miso (combining light and rich components), topped with fresh grouper, fried calamari, and crispy corn. There are many textures, many layers of flavor here, pricked with fresh acidity - why would you not want to wake up like this?
From Michelin-starred restaurants to buzzy neighborhood cafés beloved by locals, the city balances creativity with refinement while staying true to its roots. With farms nearby, many chefs source directly from local growers, weaving peak-season produce into everything from pastries to cocktails. Atlanta's restaurants are also where chefs from around the world share their stories, adding their own unique flavors to the city's fabric.
