10 Degrees South

South African Cuisine

4183 Roswell Road
Atlanta, GA 30342
United States
+1 404 705 8870
http://www.10degreessouth.com

If you've never had an opportunity to test South African cuisine, you're in for a savory taste treat. The flavors mingle the influences of Indian, Middle Eastern and English cooking to arrive at luscious grilled meats, calamari, braised rump steak and other regional specialties. Considered by patrons to be one of Atlanta's best kept secrets, the owners and staff make you feel like an old friend. Newcomers should try the bobotie, a unique sweet beef and curry dish, and sample the excellent wines, such as Spice Route, of some of South Africa's most noted vineyards. Occasional live entertainment spices up the atmosphere in the safari-themed dining room and bar. See website for full menu and exciting animated graphics.

Mina's Place African and Caribbean Cuisine and Nightclub

Delicious African Cuisine 6889 Peachtree Industrial Boulevard
(Gateway Village Shopping Center)
Atlanta, GA 30092
United States
+1 770 242 0305 Craving a dining adventure? At Mina's Place, you'll not only eat well, but learn a little about African cuisine in the process. The staff here allows guests to sample several small items in order to find your favorite. Whether it's chubby fufu (a giant ball of yam paste ladled with gravy) or fried plantain and brown rice, it's hard to go wrong when you try everything first. The traditionally spicy West African menu has been toned down a bit to accommodate western palates. After 10pm, the joint transforms into a lively, casual nightclub.

Soul Vegetarian One

Affordable African near campus 879 Ralph David Abernathy Boulevard
Atlanta, GA 30310
United States
+1 404 752 5194 This is a small, mostly student hangout offering healthy, African vegetarian food with a strong Ethiopian influence. The stated specialty is delicious, cholesterol-free cooking, and they do a pretty good job of it, and a pretty good business. It's no wonder this place is so popular with local students, as all meals are priced at about $5-6. The interesting menu at this low-key joint isn't for everyone, however, unless you have a taste for soy ice cream with your collard greens.
