What to Wear to Dinner in Atlanta: Stylish Looks for Every Occasion
Dining in Atlanta is more than just a meal; it’s an experience. Whether it’s date night at Chops, tacos at Bartaco, or brunch at Le Bilboquet, this city knows how to serve up both good food and style inspiration. But figuring out what to wear for each vibe? That’s where it can get tricky. Don’t sweat it—we’ve got you covered with this friendly, no-nonsense guide to looking fabulous at all our favorite spots in Atlanta.
At Range Boutique, we believe style is all about balance. Comfort and confidence should go hand in hand. So, grab a coffee (or a cocktail), and let’s get into it!
Chops: Sophisticated Yet Relaxed
Chops is that go-to spot for celebrating life’s best moments—or just treating yourself because why not? The key here is to look polished without trying too hard. Think chic and sophisticated, but let’s leave the ball gowns at home.
For Chops, stick to dressy, dark jeans or clean, polished denim paired with a stylish top. If you want to step it up, a dress can work—but skip the overly formal cocktail attire. It’s all about looking chic without going overboard.
What to Wear:
- Dark, clean jeans that fit nicely but aren’t too tight, paired with a silky blouse and maybe a sleek blazer if you’re feeling fancy. Not into pants? A relaxed midi dress is equally stunning (and perfect for roomier fits when there’s dessert involved).
Style Tip: Keep your accessories simple and chic. Think a dainty gold chain or subtle studs—nothing too over-the-top.
Bartaco: Cool-Girl Casual
Bartaco isn’t just a place—it’s a vibe. Tacos,fun drinks, and a low-key yet trendy atmosphere mean you’ll want to keep it stylishly casual. Basically, it’s time to break out your “I just woke up like this” look (you know, the one that took 10 minutes of planning).
“Here, I’d go for a more relaxed jean—maybe even some with holes, whatever the current jean trend is.”
What to Wear:
- Pair distressed or relaxed-fit jeans with a stylish sweater or graphic tee for a laid-back yet trendy look. Complete the outfit with sneakers for a casual vibe or opt for wedges to elevate the style during warmer months.
Style Tip: Keep the accessories chill—a crossbody bag or stacked bracelets do the trick. Bonus points if your accessories look effortless but cool.
Le Bilboquet: Brunch Chic in Full Swing
Le Bilboquet is where elegance meets comfort, and your outfit should reflect that balance. Polished but not fussy, it’s all about finding that sweet spot between “effortlessly chic” and “perfectly put-together.”
Make sure you have key items like a matching belt and shoes or a matching belt and bag because it can add wow to any outfit and make it perfectly styled.
What to Wear:
- A breezy sundress with wedges is the perfect match for a relaxed brunch and sunshine. Want something more structured? Flattering pants with a sleek camisole and a cropped blazer will make you look like you run this brunch.
Style Tip: Accessories are your MVP here. Match your shoes and bag for a polished vibe or throw on a pair of sunglasses for that “I brunch, therefore I am” energy.
UMI: Edgy and Extra (In a Good Way)
UMI isn’t just sushi—it’s a whole mood. If there’s one place to get bold with your look, this is it. Edgy textures, bold colors, and statement pieces are welcome here.
Sabrina sums it up perfectly: “Get a little more amped up and a little more sexy and edgy because the whole vibe is cool and chic.”
What to Wear:
- A leather skirt paired with a sleek blouse or go all out with a fitted jumpsuit. Add heeled ankle boots or strappy stilettos to seal the deal.
Style Tip: This is your chance to have fun with textures—think leather, metallics, or velvet. Just don’t forget to balance it out. You want edgy, not over-the-top.
