I wish there could be a family restaurant on the eastern edge of Centennial Park for museum goers coming from/going to the Peachtree Center MARTA station. We've got a membership at both Imagine It and World of Coke and end up hungry for lunch on the way out of the museums with no convenient place to go in the direction of Peachtree Center. So much of the street level space in that area is unfortunately taken up by nothing but service and parking entrances for buildings.
You could always walk to the Civic Center Station and you'll pass the restaurants at Twelve Centennial Park and Allen Plaza. Of course that walk isn't all that great either.
