Desta Ethiopian Kitchen Westside

The 15 Best Vegan & Vegan-Friendly Restaurants In Atlanta

"If you’re the vegan friend who always gets the short end of the stick when your crew picks lunch, suggest a trip to Desta. Their Westside and Briarcliff locations both have spacious dining rooms, so there’s room to invite the friends who don't know about the “other” group chat. In addition to their beloved meat dishes, the Ethiopian restaurant makes one of the most flavorful vegan platters in the entire city. The delicious misir wot is a garlicky, turmeric-spiced lentil dish we’d order by the vatful if they allowed it." - nina reeder, demarco williams, juli horsford
