We’re kicking off October with a slew of new restaurants. Here is a running list updated throughout the month with the newest places opening around the city.
Chef Karl Gorline is opening his highly anticipated Alpine restaurant, Avize, on October 3. The renovated restaurant is in the former Nick’s Westside space in West Midtown. The focus of the menu, you guessed it, will be Alpine cuisine. Gorline, formerly at Watershed and Atlas, says the restaurant is far from traditional and inspired by a mashup of European culinary influences.
The restaurant is working with a local farm in Bremen, GA to source seasonal produce. Gorline is particularly excited to serve a hay-smoked, dry-aged duck on the menu, in addition to roast chicken with a lemon caper sauce, venison tartare with blueberries, buckwheat, and walnuts, and striped bass with turnips, salsa verde, and anchovy emulsification. Also, expect foie gras, a fermented carrot bolognese, and caviar during dinner service. Reservations are open.
The first Georgia location of Toastique, a toast and juice cafe, is set to open at the Hanover Midtown apartment complex on October 5. Originating in Washington, D.C., the fast-casual eatery expanded nationwide, including location in California, Florida, and New York, among others. Expect loaded toasts, smoothie bowls, cold-pressed juices, bowls, coffee, and grab-and-go options on the menu.
Fast-casual eatery Original ChopShop will open its third Georgia location on Haynes Bridge Road in Alpharetta on October 9. Expect protein, fruit, and grain bowls, salads, smoothies, juices, and sandwiches on the menu. The Alpharetta location will be open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday.
A third location of family-owned Mad Dad’s Philly’s Authentic Cheesesteaks & Hoagies is opening the first week of October at food hall Roswell Junction. In addition to classic cheesesteaks, expect a vegan Philly cheesesteak, salmon salad, and gluten-free choices served with yellow rice.
