Inspectors awarded One MICHELIN Star to So. Fox in Atlanta's Virginia-Highland neighborhood and Uberto Restaurant in Gay, Georgia. Along with Dakar NOLA in New Orleans, they were the only three restaurants across the entire Southern region to receive a first-time star this year.

So. Fox, in the Virginia-Highland neighborhood and helmed by Chef Myles Moody and Sommelier Rachael Pack, earned praise from inspectors for its contemporary, sunlit dining room and seasonal menu highlighting dishes such as corn dumplings in sweet corn sauce with lump crab and roasted apple granita. The restaurant's name pays homage to the Southern Fox, another term for the indigenous muscadine grape, inspectors said.
