Know a restaurant for Thanksgiving in Atlanta?

November 4, 2007 8:57 AM

I am looking for a restaurant in Atlanta where my family (6-7 people) can eat Thanksgiving lunch/brunch. I'd like it to be buffet style or a special menu, so that it doesn't just look like we picked any old restaurant. My budget is up to $60 per person. Any ideas?

Agnes & Muriels. There's nothing on their site about it right now, but they do a massive Thanksgiving buffet at $29.95 a head. And the food is just amazing.

I don't know about Atlanta, but my family had Thanksgiving dinner at a Brazillian steakhouse (where the waitstaff brings around meats on sticks) one year and it was fabulous.

If you go to OpenTable.com and check under Atlanta, they have a special Thanksgiving section showing restaurants and their T-day offerings.

Here's the direct link:

If it's just that you don't want to cook, there are places that do takeout Tgiving meals, such as Murphy's in Virginia Highlands. $250 serves 8 and damn does it sound good. Order by Nov 16 and pick up Nov 21.

Mary Mac's downtown also does this, but I haven't seen their menu.

For dining in, try the Sun Dial downtown. $59 fixed menu. Kids 6-12 are half price and those under 5 are free. That is one serious menu there. Thanksgiving in style.

On that Open Table list , it looks like Cassis at the Grand Hyatt does brunch.

Do the little reservation thing in the upper right of that page to see who has availability. Filling up fast.

Corner Pub in Decatur! The Pub has down-home and upscale cooking mastered. It's a gem.

It may very well be the best neighborhood pub in the south.
