7 Atlanta Restaurants With Stellar Views
"Nikolai’s Roof, which sits atop the Hilton Atlanta, boasts world-class dining: It was the first restaurant in the Southeastern U.S. to receive the coveted Four Star Award from AAA, and has held onto the honor for 27 consecutive years (longer than any other restaurant in Atlanta). The fine dining menu presents modern American cuisine with Russian influences, more than 900 wine options, and signature house-infused vodkas. Swanky sophisticated white-gloved dinner service with panoramic views of the Atlanta skyline is offered Tuesday through Saturday."
"When you think date night, you think Italian, you think French, but how does a bit of Russian flare sound?. Nikolai’s Roof on top of the Hilton in downtown boasts one of the most stunning views of Atlanta’s evergrowing skyline. The menu is ever-changing with the seasons as they source their ingredients from local purveyors, but you can expect only the best from this award-winning Atlanta institution."
"Nikolai’s Roof is the longest active restaurant in Atlanta to receive the AAA Four Diamond award for 27 consecutive years. It boasts a contemporary cuisine with a Russian influence. An example of this is their Braised Beef Tenderloin Piroshki."
"The Terrapin Taproom offers a rotating tap list that includes many of the signature beers that have elevated and defined Terrapin within the world of craft beer since 2002. Fans of the Athens-based brewery can enjoy classic Terrapin brews such as Hopsecutioner, HI-5, Recreation Ale, and Sound Czech Pils, as well as request brews from the onsite microbrewery, The ATL Brew Lab. The Taproom also features the world-famous Fox Bros."
"This Little Five Points staple has been a local favorite for years. Stop by after a night of drinking, and sober up with a bowl of shrimp for $5, or keep the party going with a pitcher of PBR for $6."
"It is smoker-friendly, and gives off more of a lounge or bar-like feel. The staff and owners here are serious about humor and having a good time. Check out their youtube video for evidence of this."
"This fun-loving Greek restaurant off of Cheshire Bridge (near high-end Woodfire Grill) caters to a party-going crowd with a love for good Greek food in a raucous atmosphere. Bring a group of friends to eat and you'll be encouraged to get up for the occasional dance train around the room. Throwing napkins in the air is a big thing (do that a lot if you don't know what else to do)."
"One of three Ray's restaurants, Ray's in the City is one of Atlanta's fine dining establishments and a culinary landmark with an aquarium, an onyx bar, and beautiful views over the city. The menu features freshly flown-in seafood delivered several times daily as well as a delicious array of starters, soups, signature salads, entrées, and desserts along with local craft brews and handmade cocktails. Specialties include Canadian cold water lobster tail, jumbo lump crab cakes, horseradish-encrusted black grouper, and broiled seafood platters, while other mouthwatering dishes include salsa cruda-topped trout and North Atlantic ginger-glazed yellowfin tuna."
"Right in the heart of Downtown near the entrance to the AmericasMart, you’ll find Ray’s in the City. Known for its delicious seafood flown in daily from the Atlantic and Pacific, a stop at Ray’s will be well worth the time spent. At lunch, sandwiches are a good choice if you want to be in and out in a hurry."
"Our waiters Danny and Tee were wonderful and very attentive!. The atmosphere was great and the food was absolutely amazing!"
"The Bistro Niko give a nod to the city of Paris, France right in the middle of Atlanta’s Buckhead district. Serving classic, simple, and authentic French cuisine, Bistro Niko also offers a good wine list, interesting cocktails, and a rather extensive list of craft beers that provides something for all tastes. Lunch is offered Monday to Saturday from 11:30am until 5:00pm, dinner is served seven days a week starting at 5:00pm until 10:00pm Sunday to Thursday and 11:00pm Friday and Saturday."
"Take your sweetie to enjoy classic French fare at this Buckhead staple. You’ll love the classic red French bistro booths, the open kitchen letting you PEAK into your meal being made, and classic French fare like escargot, perfectly cooked scallops, and profiteroles."
"With 30 years in business, this Buckhead Life Group restaurant has graduated to old-guard status, but is still high on the list in terms of ATL favorites and is still the spot to beat on various local and national food awards lists. Sure, their penchant for showing off celebrity photos on the website is a bit cheesy, but not as deliciously so as their lasagna espressa with veal Bolognese, local wild mushrooms, and Parmigiano-Reggiano bechamel. They’re also famous for their linguini frutti di mare, but if you’re feeling ritzy you can get the $100/person five-course wine dinner, or go adventurous on the October regional menu, where you can order serious plates like slow-braised wild boar in Sangiovese wine with pappardelle pasta, or the Agnello 3 Volte (“The Three Ways of Lamb”), which is braised lamb cheeks, a grilled lamb chop, and house lamb sausage."
