More information on Buckhead Diner

As sleek as a Thunderbird convertible, the exterior of this nouvelle diner glitters with neon tubing and chrome, and the posh interior conjures up images of the Orient Express. It's almost always crowded, so be prepared to wait at peak times (it's usually worth it -- the place is full of hustle and bustle and lots of fun).Main courses are a mix of Mom and modern, some quite heavy on the calories (but who's counting?). Longtime favorites include the veal and wild-mushroom meatloaf with celery mashed potatoes, as well as the ahi tuna burger. If you order nothing else, be sure to get the homemade potato chips slathered with melted Maytag blue cheese -- they're big enough for the table to share, and I bet you won't be too embarrassed to lick the plate. Dessert must-haves include a to-die-for chocolate-chip crème brûlée. All the breads are baked fresh daily at the Buckhead Bread Company .
