This is an all you can eat place, and you will want to eat everything they have on offer! They have a relatively small but exquisite salad bar. There are multiple marinated vegetables, caesar salad, tomato/mozzarella salad, cheeses, smoked salmon and fresh breads on the salad bar. However top honors go to the meats that they prepare for you. As a word of warning, DO NOT fill up on the salad bar, though you will be sorely tempted to do just that. You will be given a small disk like a coaster that is red on one side and green on the other. Make SURE you have it on the red side until you are ready for the true feasting to begin. Once you turn it over to green, you will have a never ending parade of servers stopping by to see if you would like a serving of whatever spit roasted meat they are serving. This will be pork ribs, beef ribs, sausages, leg of lamb, lamb chops, chicken, parmesan chicken, top round, bottom round, sirloin, filet and so on. I beleive that there are about 18 different cuts of meat. So when it is time (or your plate is too full) turn your disc over to the red side so you have time to appreciate the succulent meats that have swarmed your plate and are begging to be savored. And remember to bring company because this is an experience to share with friends over several hours!
I don't know that I could pick just one item over all the others but certainly the house special, which is a cut of sirloin, is high on the list of favorites.

This restaurant is a little unusual for a "typical" Mexican joint. For starters, they have a very nice buffet for lunch, and Mexican buffet's are not the norm. They also have a very nice brunch on the weekends. It is also a bit unusual in that many of their menu items are not your standard Tex-Mex but a much broader selection including many things from other regions of Mexico. It is nice to find a place that serves some of the foods from the more tropical regions of Mexico. And you have to know you're in a decent place when it is extremely rare for native english speakers to outnumber native spanish speakers amongst the clientele!
Ah, how can one pick a favorite dish when they offer so many very nice taste temptations? Okay, okay, if I had to pick I would have to say that my favorite is a very simple but flavourful soup that they serve. I don't remember the name of it, but will update here when I remember it. It is, however, made of a nice broth with large pieces of pork, garbanzo beans (chick peas) and tomatoes. Personally, I like it best with a bit of oregano and hot peppers mixed in, along with a twist or two of lime. Update: Alas, this restaurant has shut its doors. :-( I haven't found a place to replace it yet either.....

Spice offers a variety of entrees ranging from Asian to traditional. It's sharply decorated in a neo-modern sort of way, gleaming stainless accented by soft glowing light.
I had pan-seared tuna served with wasabi-mashed potatoes. (Don't worry, they're not going to burn your tongue, just accent the tuna. If you're afraid to try sushi, Joe America, this is a great start for you as it's a meat-and-potatoes meal!) Leave a Comment

 Joe's on Juniper by littlesam1 Joe's on Juniper is owned by the same people who run Einsteins. Its a little cheaper that Eiinsteins. It has more of a sandwich type menu. Although Einsteins is not overly expensive itself. Everytime I visit Atlanta I usually have a lunch at Joe's or Einsteins. Joe's on Juniper has one of the best hamburgers. They are huge with many choices of toppings. Try the blue cheese burger for something different. On my last visit I had a bacon cheeseburger and a LaBatt beer. Great way to spend an afternoon visiting my with daughter who is attending college in Atlanta. She loves the mid town area of Atlanta and enjoys both of these restaurants as much as I do. Be prepared for a good beer also while you are at Joe's. They have 32 varities on tap and over 100 choices of bottle beer. Leave a Comment

 Manuel's Tavern by rexvaughan For almost 50 years Manuel's has been a hangout and watering hole for a vast array of people - politicians, reporters, literati, students, blue collar workers. Manual Maloof, who died in August 2004, was the owner and also a well known local politician. He was Chairman or CEO of DeKalb County government for 12 years and had his own style - gruff, often profane, plain spoken but always with an eye to the common good. I had the privilege of working with him on occasion and always had the utmost respect for his actions. His tavern is almost always full and has a unique character - a hodgepodge arrangement of 4 or 5 rooms in which all the walls are plastered with photos and memorabilia. He was an ardent Democrat and over the main bar hangs a portrait of JFK.
The menu is pretty extensive but not pretentious, mainly bar type food with great sandwiches, burgers. It also includes fried shrimp and filet mignon. It is all of good quality and value.

 Carolyn's Gourmet Cafe by SmileyLeSa Carolyn's was a nice Gourmet Deli. You could order a "positive attitude" or a "dreamer" or any of the other sandwiches with cool names. I went for the "confidence wrap." A buffalo chicken wrap, with jalapeno cheese, lettuce, tomato, buffalo sauce on a jalapeno cheddar wrap. Coming from the cold weather of the Northeast it was a treat to enjoy lunch on the outdoor deck.

 Singapore Bistro by SmileyLeSa Singapore Bistro is located in the Colony Square Mall. It's a walk-up and order type of place, good for a quick lunch. The signature Singapore Chicken was very good and flavorful.

 Casa Grande by SmileyLeSa I was very pleased with the food at Casa Grande. The restaurant was pretty cool inside. It has a certain type of character. The tables and booths were similar to a old time dinners, but the interior had nice decoration.
The salsa and chips were great. Salsa is not always created spicy, but this had an edge. I had the fajiats for dinner and they were awesome. Leave a Comment Theme: MexicanPrice: US$11-20 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: 1860 Peachtree Rd NWPhone: (404) 350-6767

 Gordon Biersch by SmileyLeSa Service was a little slow on the night I was there, but the personal pizza and carrot cheese cake were very good. There are actually 2 Gordon Biersch restaurants on Peachtree Street. One is near the Fox Theater and the other is near the Wyndham Midtown.

 Interior of Old Spaghetti Factory by rexvaughan We took our 6 year old granddaughter here not long ago and she looked around and asked, "Is this a fancy restaurant?" I guess from her perspective it was, but it is not really in spite of the bright and cheery decor. It is lovely and the foyer is really impressive with lots of wood paneling, chandeliers and glass.
They do very basic but good pasta dishes. I particularly like the spaghetti with meatballs. I am real imaginative! Though this is a chain restaurant, the food is nice and it is a really wonderful place for kids. We recently had lunch here with our 11 year-old granddaughter for her birthday and she thought it marvelous.
