Horseradish Grill¿An old horse barn converted into a restaurant many years ago remained dark and forbidding until transformed by local restaurant architect Bill Johnson into a bright, dynamic dining room. Large windows admit light, and tables are comfortably spaced in both the front porch area and the main dining room. Near one of Atlanta¿s major parks and performance venues, the restaurant fills quickly for both meal services. Private affairs in the back are wonderful in nice weather. The noise level is high for some folks, but the place is so well designed, you can easily hear your table¿s conversation.
Jane F. Garvey has been writing about food and wine for one publication or another for more than a decade even as she also writes about travel, art, architecture, interior design, history, and culture. Jane has lived in Atlanta, Georgia for over 30 years, so the evolution in the city's dining scene has been under her personal scrutiny.
