GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

If you don't mind spending some coin, go to Uncle Jack's Meat House in Duluth.

But really there's about everything in ATL

 

I mean no harm

I know there are lots of things in ATL, just not sure what is better than what.

 

Where you are staying is important. "Atlanta" covers a big geographic area.

 

I am going to be between Downtown and Duluth.

 

That puts you near Norcross, I'd guess. That makes Blue Moon Cycle real easy. Dominick's is a good Italian place there. I'll see what other things I can think of and report back.

 

Personally, I don't like going downtown. The traffic is difficult and unpredictable. But, if you don't mind it the High Museum is excellent. For swanky shopping Ponce City Market is cool. If you like a hike go out to Stone Mountain and walk up the mountain. If you're feeling really adventurous go up to Lake Lanier and rent a boat (Holiday Marina is probably your best bet there).

 

The Vortex has some damn good burgers, Anticos has very good pizza.

Those are the only two main places that aren't too expensive but very very good

 

Could always come hangout with me! We'll have a hell of a time

 

I don't know The Vortex, but you're right on about Anticos. He imports all of his ingredients from Italy.

 

I pretty much stay in the country away from there as much as possible, unless I have a meet/show. I'm sure you're in good hands with these guys from up that way

 

Totally depends on what you’re into...

Ton of good live music venues - Fox Theater, Tabernacle, Variety Playhouse, Smith’s Olde Bar

Club/upscale bar scene - Buckhead, Virginia Highlands

Dive bar/eclectic people watching - Little 5 Points, Old 4th Ward, Claremont Lounge!

Breweries - Sweetwater, Monday Night Brewing, Red Brick, and about a dozen more!

Food - Vortex burgers, Fox Bros BBQ, Felinis Pizza, Flying Biscuit Brunch, Six Feet Under Seafood, Varsity Fast Food

Non-Drinking/Eating Things - MLK Center, Underground Atl, High Museum, Fernbank Museum, Stone Mountain, Piedmont Park, College Football Hall of Fame, Olympic Park, World Of Coca Cola, CNN Center

 

Next time I head up to ATL I'm totally asking you where the good stuff is

 

Exactly what I was looking for! I'm a young city kid (28) that travels a lot for work so I try to find good places to eat and a nice place to have a drink and chit chat with a pretty lady

 

If you want to chit chat with the ladies, then try out the Clermont lounge

 

A lot of great lists here for you @ItsRichieRich I’ll add Hankook taqueria or takorea to the list. Korean inspired tacos, which are my wife’s and mine favorite spot.

 

Haha anytime! I live 45 min north of Atl and when we first moved up here back in late 90s, we’d always take visiting family down there for the touristy stuff... Then as soon as I turned 16, we were down there for live music (and after a “souvenir license” from the Atlanta Free Market in Little 5 Points), we were there for the bars and parties!

My sister and a few good friends live there now, so I still like to get down there on occasion. I just hate actually getting down there with the traffic and all... But once there, we always have a good time!

It’s a cool city, there is literally something for whatever you’re into. There are definitely some rough parts of town, so keep your wallet close and don’t give the panhandlers ANYTHING... It’ll start a feeding frenzy if you do haha!

 

If there is one thing not to miss for first timers this would be it. Bill Murray, Anthony Bourdain and Woody Harrelson are all fans.

 

So Clermont Lounge is where it's at huh?

 

That and anything on Buford Highway lol
