Best of Atlanta is back in 2017 to find your favorite restaurants, entertainment options and charities. You'll see some encores return for a second round, as well as some new faces.

We started off last year in search of the best macaroni and cheese in town. Community Q in Decatur was the clear winner, but will they reign supreme again?

Being a Southern city, Atlanta knows a thing or two about mac 'n cheese. Whether you like it old school or prefer a creative spin, you can easily find this dish around town.

Don't see your favorite? Pick Reader’s Choice and add your favorite place for macaroni and cheese in the comments to let us know.

Take a look at all of AJC Best of Atlanta's 2016 winners here.
