The 10 Hottest New Restaurants Around Atlanta, November 2024

"The long-anticipated Viet-Cajun-style barbecue joint, Gene’s BBQ, opened on July 22. Formerly a pop-up run by Avery Cottrell, known for its zesty riffs on barbecue and sides of beef tallow refried beans, has now taken over the former Salaryman space, next to Poor Hendrix at Hosea and 2nd. Expect meats by the pound here, along with boudin egg rolls, chili brined chicken skewers, crab claws, and smoked mushroom tacos. Gene’s also offers brunch with breakfast burritos and shrimp and grits. The wine list has stellar options including Pere Mata cava, Johan Vineyards pinot gris orange wine, and Chateau Yvonne chenin blanc — all excellent pairings with the food. $3 Mountain Dew shots are also available." - Henna Bakshi
