What makes a restaurant stand out? Maybe it's the history of the place, dating back decades and rarely changing its beloved menu much to the delight on longtime diners, or perhaps it is because the eatery draws in famous faces along with its everyday guests looking to sample delicious food in an inviting environment. Whatever the case may be, some restaurants offer a special quality that customers just can't get enough of.
Using reviews, awards and accolades as well as first-hand experience, LoveFood compiled a list of the "most fascinating" restaurant in every state, the unique spots that "tell a story" whether from past famous diners and storied histories or making their mark on the culinary scene with groundbreaking dishes.
According to the site, the most fascinating restaurant in all of Georgia is The Varsity. This Atlanta eatery offers a snapshot of drive-in restaurants of the past with its carhops, classic diner fare and "impressive" capacity for hundreds of guests at a time. The Varsity has eight locations around Atlanta. Find your nearest one by visiting the restaurant's website.
Here's what the site had to say about this "interesting" eatery:
"The world's largest drive-in restaurant has seen car hops asking customers 'What'll ya have?' since 1928. Even today, The Varsity's impressive Atlanta location — which can fit an astounding 600 cars — remains one of the country's most iconic examples of mid-20th century Americana. The menu is as classic as the building itself, featuring the usual diner delights of burgers, fries, and shakes, plus The Varsity's famous fried apple pies."
