The 10 Hottest New Restaurants Around Atlanta, November 2024
"You’ve likely seen the sparkly new building that looks like a metal beehive on the Eastside BeltLine. That’s Forth, Atlanta’s newest luxury hotel, and now its got a new resident. Elektra, a Mediterranean all-day restaurant on the fourth floor of the hotel is now open for service. It channels a coastal seaside in its decor and atmosphere — conveniently located by the hotel pool deck, which helps seal that vision. Executive chef Jonathan McDowell, formerly at Barcelona Wine Bar, Delbar, and 9 Mile Station, has taken inspiration from Levantine and Mediterranean flavors to create the menu. Expect dishes like a seasonal mezze platter served with warm pita, lamb kofta with sumac onions, salmon with dill labneh, mussels in a white wine fennel sauce, and a yogurt panna cotta with lavender gel for dessert on the dinner menu." - Henna Bakshi
