Rest in peace, restaurants.

Many Atlantans miss Hector Santiago's Pura Vida.

Last week, we asked readers to mention a few long-gone Atlanta restaurants that they sorely missed. Plenty of folks responded in the comments and via social media, reminiscing for places such as Pura Vida, Seeger's, Dynamic Dish, Cardamom Hill and many more. To pay respect to these dearly departed restaurants, consider this space a sort of memory wall with the names of this city's most-missed eateries. And if you don't see your most painful closure mentioned, speak up in the comments.

Take a few moments to remember all the good times had at these places, celebrate the ones that have plans for revival  ... and then go take in a meal at one of Atlanta's many great restaurants that are still open.
