General Muir Named One of America’s Best Delis

The General Muir was recently named one of the country’s best delis by lifestyle website Tasting Table.

The Atlanta institution, launched by co-owners Jennifer Johnson and Todd Ginsberg in 2013, now boasts two locations — each offering varying menus and concepts. The original Atlanta location at Emory Point is open for dinner while the Sandy Springs location is only open for lunch, though it offers an expansive array of deli selections.

The General Muir has garnered its award-winning reputation through quality service and New York-style eats. Their pastrami is cured and smoked in-house, and the bagels are boiled and hand-rolled every day.

Johnson named The General Muir after the ship that transported her family to New York after escaping the Holocaust.
