"Chef Terry Koval opened this Decatur restaurant in 2019. The Deer and the Dove has become a destination restaurant for Atlantans and it’s also a great spot to partake in a casual yet sophisticated meal with the family — it includes a kids menu, too. Expect dishes of in-season vegetables, beef and pork from nearby cattle and pig farms, and game meat entrees, like crispy rabbit legs fried in fermented buttermilk, duck sausage roulade, and plates of venison. The bar offers a handful of classic cocktails, beer, and cider, as well as a selection of mainly French and Italian wines." - Beth McKibben, Lia Picard
