Passover begins the night of April 10 and the first two days of this eight-day celebration emphasize community and family with a Passover Seder feast. Here are some restaurants you may want to consider.
1540 Avenue Place, Suite B-230, Atlanta. 678-927-9131, thegeneralmuir.com.
Rather than a communal Seder, invite your family, bring your haggadahs and create your own Seder in General Muir’s white-tiled dining room. The multi-course meal includes options such as charosets, matzoh ball soup, Scottish salmon gefilte fish, red wine and shallot braised brisket, and flourless chocolate almond torte. Reservations are available from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. for Monday, April 10 and Tuesday, April 11. Seder platters are also available for catering orders, and must be placed by April 4.
3939 McElroy Rd., Doraville. 770-454-8108, grillerspride.com.
For those that are celebrating their Seders at home, order “Kosher for Passover” ingredients from Griller’s Pride and cook your own feast. The online grocer has been in Atlanta since 2004, and offers home delivery to residents in the Atlanta metro area. Order their butchered specialties, such as beef, lamb, veal and poultry, all Glatt kosher and supervised by the Atlanta Kashruth Commission. An assortment of baking items will ensure that your house is kosher-ready by Passover.

Buckhead Life’s Mediterranean mainstay features a variety of kosher-friendly options. Their whole vegetarian/vegan menu is kosher, so pair the eggplant stew with quinoa salad meze to start. Round out the meal with Kyma’s Arctic char with wild mushrooms, pickled pearl onions, garlic confit, and sherry mushroom broth. Buttoned-up service makes this a holiday upscale dining experience.

Since kosher grocery stores are closed during Passover, swing by Whole Foods Market for any last minute needs. The grocer has stocked more than 200 kosher certified products that also meet Whole Foods’ strict quality standards.
*Denotes kosher-style. Kosher-style usually refers to food that is not kosher, but is a type of food that could be produced as kosher. Generally, kosher-style food does not include meat from forbidden animals, such as pigs or shellfish, and does not contain both meat and milk. These items are also not cooked in a Kosher-certified kitchen.
