Pecan on Main Street in College Park. Fine dining, excellent food.
Both are easy cab/Uber rides, less than 5 mins. from airport hotels.
Other thoughts:
Marriott Gateway hotel is decent food, sparse menu, $$, very good service staff.
Pig and the Pint worries me, it has changed hands and formats three times in five years.
One Flew South excellent inside the airport.
Oddly my favorite barbecue in GA is the Barbeque Kitchen, wedged into the strip on Virginia. Cash only, with all that implies.
