Tastes For Every Occasion
Fifth Group Restaurants
was named the 2007
"Restaurateurs of the Year" by
Georgia Restaurant Association
It began
in 1993 with the opening of South City Kitchen on Atlanta's bustling Crescent
Avenue. In this quaint refurbished Midtown bungalow, a culinary institution
set the standard for what would become Fifth Group Restaurants. We've come
a long way since then with a portfolio that now includes four additional restaurants
and a full-service catering and events company - all of which continue to
offer Atlantans a myriad of dining options, locations, styles and cuisines.
We are committed to providing warm service, creative menus and inviting atmospheres
while also giving back to the neighborhoods and communities in which we operate.
Our passion is sharing great food and drink with you, our guests, and it would
be our pleasure to see you at one of our tables soon.
Warmly,
