15 Hottest New Cocktail Spots in Atlanta
"Darren Carr and Eric Simpkins closed the Lawrence last year on Juniper and replaced it with Rwby (pronounced “Ruby”), a low-key neighborhood restaurant offering a variety of dishes with broad appeal that also stick to the seasons. Dishes are easily shared, too, like the steamed mussels and roasted carrot dip with garlic confit or entrees of roasted acorn squash stuffed with red quinoa, kale, carrots, and fried oyster mushrooms and tangy Flemish beef cheek stew. Like the duo’s other Midtown spots, Bon Ton and the Waiting Room, cocktails don’t take a back seat to the food at Rwby. The Amarcord Spritz, for instance, sees Cappelletti aperitivo and melon rind-infused vermouth topped with prosecco and club soda. But if you’re seeking a Manhattan or Old Fashioned, people who’ve frequented Bon Ton or the Waiting Room know they can get stellar versions of those at Rwby, too." - Molly Harris, Eater Staff
