Dish Dive

Top choice in Atlanta


Located in a teeny house near some railroad tracks, Dish Dive is cooler than you and it doesn't care. Anyone is welcome here, and the food – fresh, seasonal cuisine such as turmeric and black-pepper pappardelle, fried spaghetti squash with poblano-chocolate sauce and the never-off-the-menu masterpiece, braised pork-belly French toast – is high-value, easy-on-the-wallet eating.

Unpretentious, warm and delicious – we're in love, but make reservations and BYOB. The restaurant is located off College Ave, east of Downtown.
