Thirteen Pies is the 3rd of 10 stops as part of
"Eat the Peachtree 2015 - Electric Boogaloo!" - this is the return of the world's largest world's largest
10K-themed pub crawl. 10 clicks, 10 stops, 10 dishes, 10 drinks. 1 epic
afternoon. Locate all the
posts along with an intro if you search my blog with ETP2015. We walked
from restaurant to restaurant in search of the best flavors and drinking
venues in Atlanta, while enjoying the same sights as you would while
running the Peachtree Road Race.
The Original itinerary called for The Southern Gentleman - much to our chagrin and disappointment, The Southern Gentleman was closed when we arrived - it still had customers but we arrived 5 minutes after the hour - oops. While I would have liked to have shown a few apps, drinks and the revel we would have had there, instead we decided to substitute the local Thirteen Pies which is also in the same shopping complex, only on the ground floor.
You can find Thirteen Pies in that new Buckhead shopping complex, located at 250 Buckhead Avenue Northeast, Atlanta, GA 30305 - it's located on the ground floor on the left as you enter this new concept of Buckhead shopping. You'll first see Thirteen Pies from all the parallel line wood finishes - this continues into the interior.
This is a really beautiful restaurant featuring natural wood finishes and parallel on-edge boards, across an open dining room, open bar and open kitchen concept. What you see is what you get at every aspect, with stunning modernist views. Can you tell I approved? Whomever designed this place did a fantastic job! Kudos!
On the left wall as you walk in you'll see an horizontal chalkboard with the daily specials. Today's 13th Pie was Eggplant, oven dried tomatoes, red onions, goat cheese and basil pesto...
The menu includes small plates, salads, pastas and of course the 13 signature pies (get it?). A baker's dozen with the extra as a bonus that changes daily.
We downed a few glasses of local craft brew including the rotating Sweetwater Brewing tap - quite refreshing...
For food, the chop salad is one of the signature dishes, so we went there and ordered the Iberian pie - fennel sallami, smoked provolone, soffritto, castelvetrano olive (my favorite!), yellow tomato and old manchego - it was awesome and cut into 6 pieces, so one each!
I really do love this place and plan to return.
The service was awesome and the food quick to the table - for a substitute, this was a terrific selection - kudos to Verlin for suggesting this one!
Next Stop: La Fonda!
