19 Essential French Restaurants Around Atlanta

"Don’t let the white tablecloths and crystal chandeliers fool you, this Buckhead bistro is the kind of neighborhood spot where everybody knows your name. Chef-owner Mattie Hines has been churning out French-American fare like chicken salad, uber-flaky quiche, and comforting casseroles to adoring Atlantans for two decades. While you really can’t go wrong with any of the savory selections for brunch, lunch, or dinner, the highlight here is the pastry case. French-inspired confections like Grand Marnier-soaked pound cake are palate-pleasing showstoppers." - Sarah Bisacca
