The Best Atlanta Restaurants For Dining Solo - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"We have no trouble rolling into this West Midtown staple on our own for their legendary, buttery lobster roll—the walk straight back to the oyster bar counter is almost committed to muscle memory now. The oyster bar is much more intimate and personable than the cavernous main dining room. Plus, watching an oyster shucking show is better than our default mode of zombie phone scrolling. After devouring a dozen oysters and several strong cocktails (the tequila-heavy Glory Days specifically), we may get back on our phones to fall down a Wikipedia rabbit hole on mermmeliers. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve. New cardmembers get $300 in annual dining statement credits." - juli horsford, nina reeder
