For the fourth year, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution is giving Atlantans the opportunity to do one of their favorite things−  give their two cents about the best Atlanta has to offer.

In previous years, our Best of Atlanta polls have run the gamut from the top radio hosts in the city to the best place for Mexican food. Each year proved, Atlantans care most about where they grub. For instance, the top 2018 topic was the best burger. Readers clicked on the winning burger more than 59,000, according to our Playbuzz poll data. In 2018, Moxie Burger, a locally-owned restaurant our of Roswell and Marietta, was voted as best burger. Burgers may be one of America's favorite things to eat on a bun, but Atlanta's unofficial signature food ranked high in its first appearance on the Best of Atlanta poll. Readers viewed the best wing winner more than 40,000 times, according to our Playbuzz data. A write-in nominee, Three Dollar Cafe, reigned supreme in the wing wars.
