From the Editors

You know the drill when it comes to Greek food: souvlaki, lamb, gyros, stuffed grape leaves, calamari, roasted eggplant, spinach-and-feta spanakopita. You'll find all of these and more at Taverna Plaka, one of Atlanta's few choices for Greek cuisine.

You'll definitely want to sample the meze, the small plates of appetizers you can turn into a meal, and which come in hot and cold versions. If you're into the garbanzo bean and tahini spread known as hummus, this is one of the only establishments where you can mash your own, with ingredients brought to your table.

The restaurant has three sections: the main dining room, a lounge and a covered patio for outdoor dining. And then there's the belly dancing, a big draw here.

Performers include Aziza Nawal, who brings this Middle Eastern dance form to Taverna Plaka with an act suitable for all audiences. Between the belly dancing and the penchant of the waitstaff to dance on the tables, this will not be a boring dining experience. -- Edna McCown (Photo: Markysha Clarke)
