"Alta Adams is a spot in West Adams that makes great versions of Southern classics. Their shrimp and grits is among the best in the city, and the biscuits and gravy (made with sausage and green garlic) is unlike any version of the dish we’ve had before. We’d also come here just to eat the brunch-only burger. Those dishes, along with the great back patio - perfect for a group - and some seriously good (and strong) cocktails, are why we can’t go more than a couple months without coming back here." - brett keating
