Best Lunch Restaurants in East Atlanta

Great food! Staff was polite and made the birthday girl feel special!!

What a surprising brunch experience! My partner and I were looking for somewhere that seemed a little different than the usual eggs/meat/potatoes combination you can find in so many places, and this place was it. The space is beautiful, the service was wonderful, and the food was even better than it sounded on the menu. They had a good crowd, but even so the noise level was mild. They suggest making reservations, and I would do so, just to be sure you secure a seat. You'll be sad to have to miss out on this place!

We decided to give our favorite breakfast/brunch spot a visit on a Saturday after thanksgiving which could have been a risk but to our luck it wasn’t busy at all. Our waitress was as very attentive and our food came out fresh. The starter biscuits and muffins were a hit per usual. The sweet tea needs some work because it tasted like water and let’s be honest we’re in the south we love our sweet tea. Also I want to shout out to Brian for checking in on us and making sure our food and service was going well.

If you’re looking for a place that combines elevated dining with a laid-back atmosphere, Saints + Council is a must-visit. From the moment you step inside, the warm ambiance and attentive staff make you feel at home. The star of the show? The Goody Burger. It’s not just a burger; it’s a culinary experience. Perfectly cooked, juicy, and bursting with flavor. The balance of flavors is exceptional— Whether you’re stopping by for a casual lunch or a relaxed dinner, Saints + Council delivers on all fronts. Great service, an inviting atmosphere, and the best burger in town make this spot a new favorite. Don’t sleep on the Goody Burger—you’ll thank me later!

We had a delightful experience here. The service was superb, the food was really great and the people watching was top-notch. For a very nice restaurant inside of a tourist attraction in ATL we thought the prices were good. For two apps that were filling enough to be dinner and two glasses of good wine we were under $100 with tip.
