Bright walls and mismatched metal chairs set the mood before the food even arrives at this cheerful arepa shop in Avondale Estates. The Venezuelan menu centers on grilled arepas stuffed with fillings like pernil with caramelized onions, alongside cachapas and patacones. Portions run generous, and the full bar leans into rum. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand, which tracks for a place this upbeat about what it's doing.

Commune is a listening room and wine bar in Avondale Estates where the DJ booth and the sommelier carry equal weight. Steven Grubbs, formerly of Empire State South, steers an evolving list that includes Georgia wine from Crane Creek Vineyards, a rarity in Atlanta. Food runs from oysters and caviar to roasted chicken, enough to anchor a full evening. Deep-house and indie keep things moving long after the dessert wine arrives.

Rank 3. Galette
Bakery
Galette is a pocket-size bakery in Avondale Estates that keeps Thursday-through-Sunday hours, which sounds like a hobby until you see the weekend line. Saturday and Sunday bring the oversized cinnamon rolls under a generous slick of icing, plus breakfast sandwiches on croissants, and the rolls vanish early. Weekdays are calmer, with apple cider donuts, pistachio croissants, and an apple galette that earns the name.
