 It's Greek to You |
2985 Grandview Avenue Atlanta, GA 30305 United States +1 404 233 9755 http://www.basils.net |
Situated among some of the finest ethnic restaurants in the city, Basil's holds its own with Mediterranean and Middle Eastern specialties. A comfortable dining room dominates the interior of the restaurant, but the finest amenity is the dining area on the back patio. The changing menu offers many Greek, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern entrees. Some of the names may be familiar but the preparations are original and often surprising. An ample selection of wines is available from the fully stocked bar. Review © 2009, Wcities |

Middle Eastern Pleasures |

Exotic and fun, this Buckhead hotspot has drawn big crowds of tourists and locals every night since 1991. The lavish dining room features private tented rooms and wandering belly dancers, and all guests are treated to the Moroccan tradition of having their hands washed in rosewater before the meal. Try the full range of chef Rafih Benjelloun's Middle Eastern specialties and be sure to order a Marrakesh from the bar, a potent concoction of mysterious spirits. Review © 2009, Wcities |

Peruvian Cuisine |
3375 Buford Highway NE Suite 1130 Atlanta, GA 30329 United States +1 404 370 3226 |
Offering great Peruvian food at affordable prices, Machu Picchu is a nice break in the solid chain of Asian restaurants on Buford Highway. The dining room will put you in the mindset of a trip to the lofty Andes. The atmosphere's a bit dark, but this lends to the exotic feel. The all-Peruvian menu boasts several interesting seafood combinations such as spicy shellfish with rice. Be prepared to experiment, but always order some rice, because it is a fragrant variation on the rice used in the cuisine of other cultures. Review © 2009, Wcities |
