Georgia Brown's

Georgia Brown's Review

An elegant New South eatery and a favorite hangout of local politicians—First Lady Michelle Obama famously broke bread here with the mayor's wife and Second Lady Jill Biden—Georgia Brown's serves shrimp Carolina-style (head intact, with steaming grits on the side); thick, rich crab soup; and specials such as grilled salmon and slow-cooked green beans with bacon. Fried green tomatoes are filled with herb cream cheese, and a pecan pie is made with bourbon and imported Belgian dark chocolate. The $40-per-person Sunday "jazz brunch" adds live music and a decadent chocolate fondue fountain to the mix. The airy, curving dining room has white honeycomb windows and unusual ceiling ornaments of bronze ribbons.
