    I can always judge a restaurant by its bread... and they had amazing warm sourdough served with oil! Also, Mango Chicken Salad was amazing (balsamic dressing to die for)!

    Split the mango chicken salad & Murphy burger. The food was PHENOMENAL. Ordered Arnold Palmer- safe to say it was the best one I've ever had. Fresh-squeezed lemonade. The Bonzo is a decadent treat!

    Wonderful food! Complimentary bread and pastry basket at sitting as you prepare for good eats. Everything on the menu is great, even the desserts.

    The menu items are modern but full of history and feature fresh, local ingredients. Go for weekend brunch and walk around Virginia Highlands afterward. [Eater 38 Member]

    Mac & Cheese with Brisket sandwich was on point. I had Salmon with spinach. The sauce that came with it was spicy & sweet. It was very tasty 😋.

    I can't BELIEVE this place! I passed by it soooo many times and it looks like another "dive with a tent out front." But it is absolutely cosmopolitan inside. Great service as well. Score at MURPHY'S!

    Chef Ian Winslade instills gaelic influences on Murphy’s classic Southern cuisine. Smoked haddock, leeks, potatoes and onions swim in the cream-based soup Finnan Haddie Soup. Read more

    Lovely ambiance and delicious food. Try the Giesen sauvignon blanc with the summer fresh tortellini. Divine! And my personal favourite: carrot cake!

    Great caesar salad. The lunch combo (1/2 soup, 1/2 salad, and full sandwich) is the most food for your money I've seen in Atlanta. What's even better is that the food is great on top of that.

    While I enjoy the wine bar for a quiet conversation. This is a lovely spot for brunch. It is convenient located near the best shops the Virginia-Highlands area has to offer.

    I wasn't a big fan of the bloody mary but the mimosa and bellini were great. Egg white portobello frittata with goat cheese was fantastic. Make sure to try the biscuits and muffins!

    Surprised that the crab cake Benedict didn't have an English muffin. However if comes with cheese grits. The best thing though were the chocolate chip muffins they bring out with the biscuits.
