Savannah’s Brochu’s Family Tradition also made the list. Chef Andrew Brochu and his wife Sophie opened the restaurant in a former 1930s grocery store and is full of quirky details like fried chicken and biscuit wallpaper in the bathrooms.
According to Bon Appetit, “The food is distinctly Southern and full of playful nuance.”
Georgia is one of just a handful of states on the list to have more than one restaurant chosen.
