In the very heart of Atlanta, in the legendary building of the Candler Hotel Atlanta, is located By George Restaurant & Bar — an exquisite restaurant that combines the atmosphere of traditional European bistros with a modern American gastronomic spirit. This is a place where history and style, tradition and innovation, luxury and comfort merge into a unique dining experience.
The restaurant is situated in a building that once served as the First National Bank of Atlanta. Today, it has transformed into an architectural gem with marble floors, high ceilings, elegant chandeliers, and refined classical decor. Every hall here breathes the spirit of the early 20th century, while at the same time, it looks remarkably modern. It is an ideal place for special occasions — from intimate dinners to elegant celebrations and business meetings.
The By George kitchen is an author's interpretation of French-American gastronomy. The menu is created with a focus on seasonality, local products, and an innovative approach to classic dishes. The executive chef constantly updates the dishes, maintaining a balance between recognizable classics and gastronomic surprises.
Among the star offerings are oysters with citrus sauce, beef tartare with truffle oil, homemade baguette with butter. For the main course, choose the tender Filet Mignon, salmon with fennel cream, or duck with cherry glaze, which melts in your mouth. Side dishes also deserve attention:
And for a sweet finish to the evening? Classic crème brûlée, chocolate fondant with raspberry sauce, or almond cake with vanilla mousse — perfect desserts for a gastronomic finale.
The bar menu at By George is a story in itself. Here you will find both classic cocktails and signature mixes, inspired by European bar culture as well as southern U.S. motifs.
Signature drinks:
- The Candler Old Fashioned — noble bourbon with orange and cherry notes.
- Midnight in Paris — refined champagne-based cocktail with St. Germain liqueur.
- Southern Spritz — a perfect hot-day mix of peach liqueur, sparkling wine, and soda water.
And the wine list of the restaurant is a real gastronomic tour through France, Italy, California, and other wine regions of the world. Experienced sommeliers will help select the perfect wine for each dish to create a perfect gastronomic tandem.
