Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
For those keen on visiting the capital of the New South during this summer's Olympic Games, Lauterbach has felicitously issued a new edition of her Atlanta Restaurant Guide. Known for her monthly newsletter rating Atlanta's many dining establishments, she has produced a comprehensive guide to eating in Atlanta and surrounding communities that will prove useful to those summer visitors who intend to fill in the intervals between Olympic events with some Olympic eating. Atlanta is a relative newcomer to the fine dining scene, with little tradition to build upon beyond a general heritage of southern cooking. Recent years of urban growth have spawned an array of eateries offering international cuisine far beyond fried chicken and grits. Lauterbach awards up to four stars for cooking, and she categorizes restaurants further by evaluating atmosphere and pricing. Reviews eschew cuteness for no-nonsense assessments of food and service and general reflections on ambience. Mark Knoblauch

4.0 out of 5 stars
Good overview of Atlanta's restaurants,
This review is from: Atlanta Restaurant Guide (Paperback)
Though this edition lacks several important restaurants that have opened since its publication, Lauterbach's book still provides the most solid, comprehensive review of the best (and worst) af Atlanta dining. Unlike Zagat's guides, this book provides in depth information about each restaurant's atmosphere, what to eat and when to go. I've come to completely trust its advice.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent resource,

This review is from: Atlanta Restaurant Guide (Paperback)
An essential guide for eating out in Atlanta. I keep this on the shelf next to my back issues of Knife and Fork, but it's handy to have it all right there together in one volume.
