2 Georgia Spots Make The Best New Restaurants Of 2023 List
Yelp has released their best new restaurants of 2023, and two Georgia establishments made the list. The Peach State has crushed it this year in terms of opening new quality places for people to enjoy both unique and authentic food.
Furthermore, Yelp explained 2023 has been a successful year for the restaurant industry. This is of course great news coming out of what was an incredibly challenging pandemic stretch. “To celebrate the rising stars of the culinary world—and a 15% growth in new business openings each month this year (compared to 2022)—we’ve compiled a list of the Best New Restaurants of 2023,” Yelp said.
Both restaurants are among the 25 best new spots of the year happen to be in Atlanta, and both start with the letter O. However, they offer very different menus.
Oaxaca Ranked #17
“What best defines us is corn, which is imported from Oaxaca, Mexico,” Oaxaca explains. As such, this is a Mexican restaurant with an original touch. Their menu included creative variations of favorites such as duck confit quesadillas, and pork belly tacos. In addition, the drink menu is just as extensive (and creative) as the food). In fact, the drink menu consists of six different sections including wine, specialty drinks, and two zero-proof options.
Oreatha’s At The Point Ranked #4
Named after the owner’s mother, Oreatha’s At The Point featured globally-inspired cuisine. In fact, their logo is literally a globe situated within the letter O. This is in the Cascade Heights neighborhood of Atlanta. Here, to get the experience going, you can start off with small plate items like pizza rolls. Popular entrée items include duck ravioli or oxtail lasagna. If you are more in the mood for a handheld item, there is also a seafood salad wrap or fried chicken sandwich.
Regardless of your food-type preference two of the best new restaurants in Georgia are only about 20 miles from each other.
Georgia Destination Named A Best Tiny House Hotel
A recent report by Shermans Travel detailed the 10 best Tiny House hotels in America, and a Georgia destination made the list. “Tiny homes are one of the hottest residential design trends right now,” they explain.
In addition, Realtor.com published a story last year that gave readers a glimpse of what exactly is going on with the Tiny House trend in America. But what is a Tiny House? Typically, they are 100 to 400 square feet. Many of them (though not a requirement) are situated in quieter areas. It is very common to find tiny home communities tucked within nature, in a peaceful and serene setting.
Other common attributes include creative ways to establish storage space and loft beds. They are often energy-efficient simply due to the smaller footprint requiring less utility power.
“If you’re considering the tiny-home lifestyle, take it for a test drive before you hire a builder and go all-in,” Realtor explained. That is another reason why having such Tiny House hotel options is helpful. It gives those who are interested a chance to try it out.
Live A Little Chatt – Rising Fawn, Georgia
Located just 30 miles outside Chattanooga, Live A Little Chatt has three Tiny Houses on the property to stay at. “It’s evident that each was built with love and intention,” Shermans Travel explains. The Old Blue Chair house accommodates up to five guests, while the Shangri-Little and Wandering Gypsy can sleep three people.
Visitors to Rising Fawn Georgia are in close proximity to Cloudland Canyon State Park. That’s where you will find hiking trails and two waterfalls. However, there is also nothing wrong with staying on the hotel grounds to embrace the simple environment around you to unwind fully.
Each of the three options at this Georgia destination that was named in the list of best Tiny House hotels is uniquely different from each other. “We strive to give you the place to find your bliss and live deliberately.” Live A Little Chatt says.
