With Mother's Day just around the corner, you might be thinking of making some Sunday brunch reservations. And while there are endless eats worth devouring around Atlanta, only one local joint made it to OpenTable's 2019 list of 100 best brunch restaurants in America: Poor Calvin's.

The Asian fusion brunch spot in Midtown comes from Vietnamese American Calvin Phan. On its menu, you’ll find Southern staples with a creative East Asian twist, such as Thai-spiced mac ‘n’ cheese or a plate of curry cheese grits.

In the mood for something else? Consider one of AJC dining editor Ligaya Figuereas' top Atlanta brunch picks.

According to OpenTable, the best brunch ranking is based on more than 12 million verified diner reviews of more than 30,000 restaurants in 50 states and Washington, D.C.

California had the most brunch spots on the list, followed by New York, Illinois and Pennsylvania.
