"Beautiful books and great wine go hand in hand—a connection Lucian Books & Wine in Buckhead makes effortlessly. Coffee table books gleam from sky-high shelves (all for sale), and just flipping through a few (you’re encouraged to) makes you feel like you’re the type of person who has a room they call “the study.” Thumbing through the thick, saddle-stitched wine list will only enhance that feeling. Add the tight, well-executed French and American menu—like crunchy chicken paillard with spring vegetables and some of our favorite fries in the city—and you’ve got a mood-setting lunch or dinner date locked in." - jacinta howard, juli horsford, nina reeder
