"Use this place to stump pessimistic in-laws and discerning friends who try to find fault in everything. The Deer And The Dove’s menu is packed with gamey proteins that you’re more likely to find in a North Georgia restaurant than in ATL. But no one does these meats as well as this Decatur spot. Juicy venison is served rare with a light, coffee-dusted char. Dry-aged duck topped with duck bone jus and foie gras is so rich we've almost lost our train of thought mid-chew. And the unfussy dining room works nicely with the artistry of each dish." - nina reeder, jacinta howard, juli horsford
