Featured this week:

Our prime choice for succulent steaks: Hal's of Atlanta - this homegrown mainstay is known for hand-cut meats. For other tender contenders, try Kevin Rathbun Steak and Chops Lobster Bar and, of course, Ruth's Chris Steakhouse.

Enjoy the South's best fried chicken, fluffy buttered biscuits and seasonal veggies from these comfort foodie favorites: Atlanta's classic Mary Mac's Tea Room and the seasonally sensational South City Kitchen.

Though we're far from Paris, enjoy fabulous French fare at Anis Café & Bistro - an eclectic and cozy oasis. For even more decadent dishes, visit F.A.B. and Atmosphere.

Our top pick for historic neighborhood dining is the celebrity chef's namesake eatery - Rathbun's, which dishes up modern American fare found in the Old Fourth Ward.

When you're dressed to impress, our favorite fine dining in an elegant setting can only be found at Park 75. Gleaming from the Four Seasons Atlanta, this city-chic bistro serves delicious dishes made from the season's finest local and global ingredients.

Prefer to make a splash? Our go-to places for sumptuous seafood are Atlanta Fish Market and Ray's in the City or MF Sushi Bar for top-grade sushi.

In Atlanta, we always leave room for dessert! For after-dinner coffees and decadent desserts, visit Café Intermezzo and Murphy's Restaurant.
