Atkins Park   

In 1922, Atkins Park deli was born. Today, you still feel the historical buzz around this restaurant and bar, even though it certainly has expanded its wings. Rusty Hamlin, Atkins' talented chef, cooks all sorts of Southern delicacies. You'll find Georgia lump crab cakes with fresh field greens, BBQ Louisianan Gulf Prawns over grit cake with sweet onions, or Cajun Cornish Game Hen for dinner. There are also more basic dishes like chicken fingers, wings, deli sandwiches and salads. The atmosphere is almost saloon-like, with simple wood tables and chairs and dark red walls. For outdoor dining, Atkins Park features a nice patio with brick walls and hanging plants. The actual bar is huge, with an extensive selection of beers, cocktails and affordable wines. -- Jason Burkhart
