Little Bear

This Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant from chef Jarrett Stieber is beloved for its creative farm-to-table tapas, but the wine and beverage program deserves equal attention. The cellar focuses on alpine whites, Burgundian selections, and low-intervention bottlings that mirror the kitchen's precision. Staff guide pairings intuitively: a saline Furmint with smoke-kissed seafood, a lifted Nebbiolo with earthy root vegetables. The menu changes constantly, and so does the wine, guaranteeing discovery every visit.

The Booze Pack (around $25) is a steal: one off-menu craft cocktail, two glasses of curated wine, and a house-made nightcap. That is four drinks for $25, chosen by people who know what they are doing. Prices across the board are remarkably reasonable for the quality. This is Michelin-recognized dining at neighborhood-restaurant prices.

Little Bear treats wine as an extension of the kitchen rather than a separate department. The alpine whites and Burgundian focus are unusual for Atlanta, and the $25 Booze Pack is the best beverage deal at any Michelin-recognized restaurant in the city. Come hungry and curious.
