Atlanta


Loosely translated as mouthful/morsel/bite from Spanish/Portuguese/Italian, but there's nothing little about the flavor packed into the viciously creative sandwiches and salads at this Westside farm-to-table hot spot. Hello roasted poblano and pimento-cheese sandwich with bacon and fried green tomatoes, and Atlanta's best double-stacked burger and herb fries, it's a pleasure to meet you.
