There is nothing like a delicious, home-cooked meal that tastes exactly like your family used to make on Sundays. We’re lucky that in the great state of Georgia there are tons of small, family kitchens that serve up incredible food just like that. So the next time you have a hankering for some Southern, family-style fare, then these 11 spots should be on your mind.

1. Porch Light Latin Kitchen - 300 Village Green Cir SE, Ste 110, Smyrna, GA 30080

Editor's note: This restaurant is permanently closed.

From the outside, you may even miss this small, family-style restaurant. But once you get inside and smell the wafting scents of Latin-inspired flavor, you'll know exactly where you are. Chef Andre Gomez wanted to create an intimate community space where people can gather together to drink, eat, laugh, and feel safe. And he did just that.
2. Old Brick Pit Bar-B-Q - 4805 Peachtree Rd, Chamblee, GA 30341

For many Southerners, it's hard to disassociate the terms "family-style" and "BBQ". The good news is, in Georgia you don't have to. Old Brick Pit Bar-B-Q has been serving up traditional flavors and meals for years. Their homemade Brunswick Stew is even a fan-favorite and must-order-side-dish for most.
3. GRITZ Family Restaurant - 14 Macon St, McDonough, GA 30253
Yelp Chrstie R.
Yelp Britney W.
Nothing brings the family together like a good, Southern breakfast. At GRITZ Family Restaurant, you can spend the morning feasting on delicious pancakes, huge Western Omelettes, and a nice, steaming cup of Joe. What more could you ask for?
4. Beaver House Restaurant - 121 S Main St, Statesboro, GA 30458
Yelp Traci C.

One of the best parts about visiting this hidden gem spot is that you can order up food family-style and have a true Southern feast of your own. With fan favorites like crunchy fried chicken and buttery biscuits, Beaver House is a great spot to chow down in Statesboro.
