It might not be what you're looking for, but The Varsity is a downtown Atlanta staple. If you're there for a week you should hit it for the nostalgia at least.
Rost said you were a decent guy, but came off like an arsehole. He was half right. I left my rifle at home so I could haul more meat, idiot.
Rost??? I only met him once at a bee gees cover band concert.. he was dressed like Barry Gibbs.. But yes he was half right I’m 100% ass hole but at least I’m not a pretentious dick like you.. lol
Y'all two kids. Keep playing. Both are A1 folks in my books. And both can come across as smartazz too.
You know I'm never a smartazz.
As to bison and paper. I"ve missed paper. Never missed a bison. Bison dead. Can verify that. Shot pointed in right direction. Managed a tag. Killed a bison. Im good.
As to bison nasty... we all have different tastes but I'd only say that to take it off your hands. Remember Leighton I said you bison was inbred. Came with no tenderloins. They were missing... I'll never turn down dall sheep. Bison. Moose. I will turn down caribou. never had muskox. May never who knows. Probably shouldn't start then I"ll want a tag all the time. LOL
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....
I used to live in Marietta and moved way out from the city 3 years ago. Hatari is right on all his suggestions. If you have wheels, Canoe and Ray's on the River are both good.
For a very interesting time, go to the Clermont Lounge. A unique place...
Duuuude! He will have Mrs. KG in tow. I'm thinking "too unique".

You're from one of the world's fine culinary cities, I'm afraid ATL can't compete with Boston on the food scene. I won't even try seafood with you!
Funky local restaurant/bars
The Vortex - really good burger, really far out crowd late at night
The Highland Tap - bar is noted for martini's and draft, restaurant has a great burger, but all the menu is tasty for mid price and another people watching plce for locals.
Steak Houses, - Bone's, Chop's, Morton's all represent the classic steakhouse at it's best.
Italian - I hesitate to even mention Italian to you, but we have several noteworthy. La Grotta - Classic Northern Italian. Bacchanalia - one of the cities best. Tough to get in. Sotto-Sotto - Italian/Euro. Japanese - (Why do I bother??? ) Umi - Should meet your standards
ATL Staples - Ray's on the River (American), The Capital Grille (American steak/seafood) Nokolai's Roof (Continental) ATL Fine dining staple for decades. All of these are expense account joints
Unique dining - The Imperial Fez - Moroccan themed with pillows to sit on and a belly dancer. Think Casablanca. Sidney Greenstreet would run it, not Bogart. More "eat where the locals eats" - Wrecking Bar Brew Pub, Fox Bros BQQ
Music and Food - Fat Matt's Rib Shack - BBQ, cold beer and Blues! Hole in the wall worth checking out.
For you, Your DeKalb Farmer's Market. I think you'd enjoy seeing that. Foodstuff from everywhere. Short drive/Uber from downtown.
Thanks for that, Doc. I'd have a go at several on your list, but it's not for me. The wife is there. I'm stuck dogsitting and heading out for ducks. Poor me!
She's not driving and I don't want her heading out on foot anywhere too far from the hotel. I already told her she'd probably be better off just eating at the hotel. The last time she was there she and another Japanese gal in for work at the same gig walked across some bridge to AL and had a couple of nice meals there. Said it was nicer over there than in ATL. Appreciate the input from folks just the same.
For Mrs. KG,
La Grotta Ray's on the River Canoe The Captial Grill Umi
Trader Vic's and Nickoli's Rood are in the Hyatt down there.
I wouldn't hesitate for her to grab Uber or Lyft. Really not an issue.

I have been with my wife a couple of times. Other folks too. It is a memorable place! It isn’t like The Cheetah!
