Wonderful spot. We did all small plates — The coffee dusted venison with carrot and beets was incredible, and the brioche they serve with the pate is just perfect. I want to go back and try the burger. D&D is better than some of the new Michelin starred spots in town.

My recent experience at Deer and Dove Restaurant was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment I stepped in, I was greeted warmly, and the ambiance set the tone for a delightful dining experience.

The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the trout dish. Cooked to perfection, the trout melted in my mouth, bursting with flavor with each bite. It was evident that the chefs at Deer and Dove pay meticulous attention to detail in their culinary creations.

Equally impressive was the impeccable service provided throughout the meal. The staff were attentive, courteous, and went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our dining experience was flawless.

To top off the evening, I indulged in the Orange Almond Cake for dessert, and it was nothing short of heavenly. Moist, flavorful, and beautifully presented, it was the perfect ending to an already delightful meal.

Overall, Deer and Dove Restaurant exceeded my expectations in every aspect. With its delectable cuisine, impeccable service, and inviting atmosphere, it's a dining destination I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone seeking an extraordinary culinary experience.

I don’t even know where to begin.

Easily one of the best experiences at a restaurant I’ve ever had. First off, this restaurant is meat/game forward, so if that’s not your jam, don’t take it out on the review. The rabbit liver was one of the best meals I’ve ever had, the bone marrow with snails was decadent, and the coffee dusted venison was superb. I was having such a great meal, I booked another reservation for the next night.

I came back and had the burger with foie gras and I damn near started sobbing at the table. Everyone that works here is personable and went out of their way to make me feel welcomed. Do not SLEEP on this place and try something you’ve never had before!

A magnificent experience! Loved the rustic game Small Plates, from the Duck Liver Paté, to the Coffee Dusted Seared Venison, to Rabbit Liver Country Terrine, and the Hudson Valley Foie Gras Torchon- all creatively prepared and extremely delicious! The jams, jus, purées, and fruits embellishing the dishes were all distinctive and perfect complements to each one.
Moving on to the entrées, both the Pheasant ballotine and the Rabbit Loin followed the same pattern of perfect accompaniments and the flavor they bring.
Also, kudos to Brittany and the rest of the staff for a job well done.
The only problem we had was that we couldn't try the other seven or eight dishes offered, but will remedy that by returning soon.
At The Deer and The Dove farm-fresh is an understatement. Period....the end!

In my opinion this is one of the best restaurants in GA. The staff was so friendly. Our waitress recommended the Venison and it was a highlight.

Overall the menu is very unique with offerings such as Quail, Pheasant, etc.

No complaints all the dishes were excellent.

Standouts we’re the venison, scallops, and the plum cake. Would definitely visit again to try some of the other dishes.

Cannot judge the drink menu that well, (only ordered one drink) but the cocktail I got, which was the Italian Sour was tasty.

We went here just for dessert after seeing reviews online and OMG it was so good. The custard we got was very rich in flavor while not being overly sweet. The sauce it rests in has a butterscotch/maple-y taste to it and tastes really good with the custard. May have to come back to try the food! The bar also had a wide array of drinks from the looks of it (never seen Dalmore at another bar before!).

Little on the darker side at night which makes the food harder to see for me but obviously meant to set a great intimate vibe. Food is great and felt worth the high cost that it demands. Felt right to order the venison and the pheasant for food on the first visit.

We had a great experience at The Deer and The Dove! Service was super friendly. The food was excellent and beautifully presented, with a well-rounded cocktail and wine menu too. The chicken liver pâté was absolutely delicious. Leave room for dessert!

A little pricey but you pay for what you get and this was definitely top notch.. The dishes that most impressed us were the sweetbreads, the octopus and the venison which was cooked to perfection. One dish that we did not appreciated as much as the rest was the foie gras torchon which just wasn’t tasty enough maybe they went too light in the seasoning as I normally make it with my mom and we have to add enough salt and spices. The rest was all so good with great service and a charming patio. Go now because the chef just won the James beard award so it will get busy!

Our friends @tim__tyler and @taylorxbug heard about this chef that won an award for best chef in the Southeast so of course we did what's natural... we gave them a try to see what all the noise is about 😃

@thedeerandthedove is located in the heart of downtown Decatur, it stands out with its bright yellow door and beautiful outdoor scenery. The menu is VERY different with fresh ingredients and a chef that likes to risk it and go all out, but you're rewarded for their boldness with some unique flavors and fun menu items. The service is excellent and our server (Mara), was a true professional. Mara was extremely knowledgeable about every menu item and showed excitement when describing dishes we had questions about. The surprising part was the fact that prices were not outrages, the steak was the most expensive meal which was ordered by Daniel. If you're looking for something different and delicious in the Decatur area, call and set a reservation and be open to try something new!! The Deer and The Dove won't disappoint. Just be careful if you're bringing someone here on a first date... it can get a little loud!! 🦻😉

Pictured here:

Fossil Farms Half Pheasant- Pheasant ballotine stuffed with fowl sausage + Decimal Place Farm kale, Ellijay shiitake mushrooms, Diamond Hill Farms baby carrots, poultry jus... first time having pheasant 🙌

Beef Fat Potatoes - This was a table favorite. SO GOOD

Cheese From Our Friends - Different assortment of delicious cheeses from local farms and business owners

Grilled Beef Tongue - When beef tongue is cooked right, it's hard to beat... this beef tongue was done RIGHT. This was Daniel's first time having Beef tongue, so luckily for me, it was a huge thumbs up

Octopus - Taylor ordered the octopus... I'll admittedly say, I don't like octopus BUT this one looked delicious

Chatel Farms Ribeye - Tender, cooked to perfection with an amazing taste... I don't need to say more

Chicken Liver Pate - I am NOT a fan of any type of liver... but my wife ordered this and I kept an open mind. I'm still not sure if I liked it or not 😅

5.0 | The Deer and the Dove had easily become one of my favourite Atlanta gems. The service, the food, the bar, and the consistency is superb. I have been here maybe just shy of eight times now, and when I go back I am just as satisfied each time. all the pictures here are some of my favourite things to get. the coffee dusted venison is a must. so is their smash potatoes, the bone marrow, and the escargot. This place is brilliant and I hope they continue to excel and become Atlanta’s first Michelin star restaurant. Big big fan. If there was only one dinner stop a person could make on their layover in Atlanta, I would send them here.

One of the best dinners I’ve had in a long time. I found the staff to be kind and helpful. The food was fabulous. We enjoyed it so much we are returning to celebrate my husband’s birthday.

A delightful dining experience. We came for a lite meal with another couple after a busy afternoon spent with a wedding caterer in their kitchen so we were too hungry. The table sized charcuterie board, cocktails and wine were a great start and we shared scallops/risotto and a cut up burger between the four of us. Everything was excellent. Finished off with something chocolate.

Excellent experience! Our favorite and most surprising dish of the night was the burrata. The vegetables were treated beautifully and that entire dish felt complete. Amazed at the flavors it brought to our palates. All the other dishes were done very well, had good flavor, and were enjoyable to eat. We are excited to come back and try more of the dishes on the menu, especially the burrata again.

enjoyed a lovely summer meal on the patio. summer vegetable plate with sea beans was a wonderful complement to the rich whipped foie gras with grilled bread, white truffles, begonia leaves, and peach jelly. Speaking of rich and wonderful the bone marrow and snails in a demi glace sauce with capers and shave garlic over focaccia bread is worth finding parking in Decatur Square. Wine menu features Oregon and Italian reds, whites and rose. House craft cocktail are refreshing and original.

Had an amazing Burrata appetizer with strawberry jam and one of the best Halibut dishes I have ever had. Fun creative menu, fresh local ingredients highlight a thoughtful meal. Will return.

This was my first time coming here after it changed from the previous restaurant, Cakes and Ale. I had never been to the original one but I had gone to their small breakfast and coffee spot next door. I really like the simple and taste fully decorated new space. We have the halibut with risotto and the gnocchi with mushrooms. The gnocchi and mushrooms were delicious. The halibut was really well cooked but the sauce and the risotto was a little too citrusy for me. We were served some dinner rolls early on and they were fresh and there served butter spread was surprisingly rich in creamy.

Very attentive service, I love their whole animal and slow food approach. Snails were so tender and went really well with the bone marrow. Looking forward to trying all of their offals.

Went on a whim for date night and my goodness... one of the BEST meals I have ever had. The venison is perfect, the beef tartare and beef tongue are divine, and the escargot with marrow are to die for. Can't wait to go back!

The owners are truly passionate about what they do and the food quality is incredible! Every plate is unique and delicious I just can’t wait to go back and try new dishes.
