Buckhead

About the restaurant

Tucked away in a sleepy side street in the heart of Buckhead, Anis is located in a converted house that has been renovated to look and feel like one of many little charming restaurants that you are likely to find in the Provence region in the south of France.

The menu is deeply rooted in the ingredients and aromas that give dishes from the French Mediterranean region their unique flavors.

Anis is comprised of an inside dining room and an outside patio area that is available for seating year round, and a charming little bar where you may enjoy a meal if you wish.

Widely known as one of the most romantic dining spots in the city, Anis is a great place to meet up with friends and can cater to large parties with ease.

Reservations are accepted and encouraged.

I love Bahama Breeze! We no longer have one in my city, so whenever I get a chance to eat there while traveling, I do. Our waitress was MIA towards the end but overall everything was good.

While on business travel, we had a great dining experience at the Big Ketch restaurant. We had great service from our attentive waiter. We started out with fresh oysters, which were a special treat. We tried the fish tacos and grouper sandwich as our entrees, both were awesome!! The hushpuppies were some of the best we have ever had. You can't go wrong with this gem.

About the restaurant

In 2005 four longtime college friends opened Tin Lizzy’s in Atlanta’s Buckhead neighborhood, giving their guests a unique taqueria with service rooted in genuine hospitality. Tin Lizzy’s quickly became a popular
place to work and to meet friends for refreshing margaritas and delicious FlexMex cuisine. Soon after, other neighborhoods wanted their own Tin Lizzy’s. We are excited to bring our passion for hospitality and “friends serving friends” mission to new neighborhoods.

My first time and I will be back. I had the Korean bbq and seafood boil tacos. Both were great. The coleslaw was bland so I wouldn’t order that as a side again. Our server Wesley was great and patient as we had a lot of questions. My coworkers all enjoyed their meals as well. We had queso and chips which isn’t complimentary but the seasoned chips were worth the price. It was quiet today because we went at 11:30 on a Friday before Labor Day so I’m not sure what it’s like at other times of the day. Loved the décor. Reminded me of Florida. I recommend dining here.

About the restaurant

Welcome to Tin Lizzy’s Taco Americana, the refreshed Midtown location of Atlanta’s beloved Tin Lizzy’s Cantina. Inspired by the relaxed, breezy west coast city of Palm Springs—the desert oasis known for its mid-century modern architecture and California-cool lifestyle—you’ll be transported with thoughtful design elements. Warm white oak paneling, vibrantly colored textiles and beach-chic original artwork set the scene. We welcome you to pull up a chair in the airy dining room, at the welcoming bar or on the easygoing patio, and explore the menu.
