"If you’re looking for a gluten-, dairy- and soy-free haven, consider PhatYuca your very tasty safe space. The orange walls have the color theory effect that makes us want to enthusiastically order half the menu. OK, that’s our mood at every restaurant, but the Chastain area restaurant’s bright decor (along with a giant llama painting) are very fun. Expect to find a small crowd of loyalists who knew them by their original KarmaFarm name alongside a new crew lured in by word-of-mouth talk of their incredible housemade yuca arepas. These super dense, moist pockets are delicious on their own, but we like them filled with their sautéed mushrooms, oniony chickpea mash, and creamy sriracha-like sauce." - nina reeder, demarco williams, juli horsford
