The Best Restaurants In Midtown - Atlanta - The Infatuation

"Yes, you’ll probably have a Ric Flair–level wrestling match for a parking spot in Desi Spice’s Midtown lot, but the fantastic food makes it worth the effort. Dishes like creamy chicken masala or chana masala—tender chickpeas simmered in a rich, tomato-based gravy—are just a few standouts from a menu packed with great options. The takeout game is strong, too, so if you dine in, expect a steady stream of delivery drivers floating in and out. The small Indian restaurant has plush, kind of fancy chairs that make you sit up a little straighter—but the overall feel is relaxed. Either way, Desi Spice is always in the rotation when we’re craving Indian food (it’s on our citywide best list)." - jacinta howard, juli horsford, nina reeder
