Smoke And Friends Carne En Vara brings a Latin American spin to Atlanta’s Barbeque scene, slow-roasting premium cuts of meat over open flames.

As part of Atlanta’s Restaurants & Food community, Smoke And Friends Carne En Vara focuses on one thing: wood-fired meat done with precision. Guests order at the counter or online, choose from a focused menu of fire-roasted beef, pork, and chicken, then round it out with fresh sides inspired by Latin street food and Southern cookouts.
