La Parilla

This restaurant recently opened in Toco Hills. We have been back 3-4 times already. The best deal is Wednesday they have 5 dollar pitchers, can't beat that. The menu is huge, they have a wide array of foods (some unexpected). I have not been disappointed yet. I usually stick with the combo #1, last time I got a burrito. Here is the burrito and the southern chicken tacos (not sure the official name).

Doc Cheys

I can't believe we don't have a review yet.  I mean I guess when you go somewhere a lot you don't think of doing a review.  I first went here in Asheville and then found one (three) in ATL.  Since I have a Karma Card, I go here often.  They send you great deals and the food is just feel good food.  I always enjoy myself when I go here.

The Marlay House

Marlay update: I was happy to go back, and we keep going back. This place continually impresses me and I am surprised at how few people know about it! The porch is wonderful, love to sit out there. The mac and cheese is a must, mmm, fries, mmmm. Just so good! A photo from a recent visit.

We checked out this place to celebrate an engagement with friends. I didn't even know it was in Decatur.  I would happily go back.  It was a neat place.  We didn't get to eat outside (which I hear is really nice) because it was raining when we went.  Nice beer selection and great food.

Blurry pic: the motz, basil (or pesto can't remember) and tomato sandwich.  Yum.

Bakeshop

I think this is the review for bakeshop from Dana: roadster. the new ice cream version of king of pops?? i had this pistachio treat at lunch at BAKESHOP. was good and bakeshop is pretty good too. great to pop in for a sandwich, quiche, soup, coffee, treat... pretty good and cool setting. can be tricky to get parking when it's busy.

Ale Yeah! combined with Isabella's cafe

Review from Dana: growler from ALE YEAH! in decatur. very delicious and economical and enviornmentally friendly. i also purchased some "dirty nekkid man" coffee there that was used for the latest sweetwater dank tank: mean joe bean and is roasted locally by the folks from java vino. it's delicious, shade grown and locally roasted. just can't beat that. that's all with my leftovers from ISABELLA'S CAFE. went there with a scoutmob. that place was delicious. i had the turkey meatloaf and mac n cheese. just really good food from a woman that quit the rat race to start up a restaurant; glad she did. highly recommended.

Homegrown

Review from Dana: kevin's breakfast from HOMEGROWN. definitely a place to go. everything there is good! but kevin's breakfast may become my new staple. the cheese grits are amazing and topped with chili and eggs any way is awesome and a delicious biscuit (or toast, but i recommend the biscuit) on the side is heaven. cheap and delicious, but one of those breakfast/lunch only places. i've always had good service there. oh, and once i saw kevin gillespie there on a sunday morning which means it really is good. perfect for weekend brekfast. highly recommended.

GRINDHOUSE KILLER BURGERS

I missed going here with bookclub, so here is Dana's review:
here are cheesy poof appetizers from GRINDHOUSE KILLER BURGERS. they were good, as was my hillbilly burger. good selection of beers and "boozy milkshakes". at our table the cherry springer won best of show. definitely worth a visit. i had the beef burger although you can also have turkey or veggie
