Nosh on This: Atlanta’s gluten-free dining and shopping scene – June 16, 2017

Arepa Mia is closing its Decatur location June 30th and moving to Tudor Square in Avondale Estates. They are hoping to open in mid-July or early August in the space formerly occupied by The Market. What a great move for this dedicated gluten-free restaurant serving up outstanding Venezuelan fare. The parking is ample and the larger space will allow for comfortable in-store dining.

According to ToneToATL, HOBNOB Neighborhood Tavern plans to open their second location at TOWN Brookhaven July 10th. Their menu features many gluten-free options, such as gluten-free pizza, gluten-free bread and desserts.

Now everything on Willy’s Mexicana Grill’s menu is gluten free with the exception of the flour tortillas and cookies. More information on ingredients can be found here.

One of my favorite items to order at Marlow’s Tavern is the grilled chicken stack because its plating is gorgeous, it raises comfort food to a new level, and the price is right. Two herb marinated chicken breasts sandwich a bed of roasted fingerling potatoes, blistered grape tomatoes, artichokes, baby arugula, and green beans, topped with lemonette and parslied olive oil. As always, it is best to speak directly with the chef or the manager to alert them to your dietary needs prior to ordering.

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, to celebrate its new Tuesday hours, Mediterranea, Atlanta’s first gluten-free full-service restaurant and bakery in Grant Park, is offering half-off appetizers from 5:30-9:15 p.m. Appetizers include baby peppers stuffed with eggplant caponata; turkey feta meatballs; Mediterranean stuffed eggplant with pine nuts; and seasonal toast sampling.

Table & Main

continues to deliver with paleo goodness every Wednesday. Here are the menus for the next two weeks:

June 21 | Squash and zucchini noodles with sundried tomato pesto, with Georgia peach wood smoked bacon chicken sausage

June 28 | Brasstown Grassfed beef smokey burgers, with spring lettuce, first of the season tomato, paleo beet ketchup, paleo avocado mayo, and plantain fries

Taqueria del Sol’s newest location in Chamblee’s Peachtree Station complex opened for lunch service June 14th. The restaurant is located in the multi-use complex of Peachtree Station at 5001 Peachtree Boulevard. Lunch service only is available June 14th through June 17th. Going forward, the restaurant will be open for regular lunch and dinner service. All of their tacos can be served in corn tortillas, upon request.

Stop by Venkman’s Friday and Saturday nights from 10:30 p.m. until close for a special Late Night Menu. Of course the bar is always open, so sit back, relax, and choose from four items – three standard items and one rotating each week. Their menu is very accommodating for those with a food allergy or intolerance and the staff is more than helpful. Here is the menu:

Assorted House Pickles, Smoked Trout Dip with BBQ Chips, House Hummus with Garlic Chili Oil and Crudités, and the Crock of the Week.

Enjoy a safe and tasty weekend!
