Acworth, Georgia, is one of many thriving communities just north of Atlanta. In the small, historic downtown, some of the premier chefs have set up shop away from the busy city. Most eateries have a focus on a gourmet, farm-to-table twist to southern comfort food classics. Instead of fried chicken and waffles, you'll find roasted chicken sausage on a crepe. Here, you can also find New Orleans fare like spicy seafood gumbo, oysters on the half shell, and fried shrimp po' boys. Fish is also popular. You'll find it blackened, fried, grilled, and even encrusted with parmesan cheese. Most restaurants have a full wine list filled with options from local wineries and craft beers that are brewed in the Atlanta area.
