This building has a bit of a history. It was built in 1926 and was the former Emory University railway station for passengers and freight. The present name which is “Dooley’s Den ‘The Depot’” is a reference to the Spirit of Emory - do a Google search for information on Dooley - and the building presently serves coffee. For some time in the 70’s and into the ‘80s the building was actually the location of the Emory Credit Union.

Scalini's Italian Restaurant is known for its garlic rolls. The rolls, sitting in a bowl of melted butter, are topped with lots and lots of fresh garlic. The rolls and salad are unlimited. The entrees are pretty good too! And, if you are pregnant and ready to deliver, Scalini's eggplant parmesan allegedly induces labor. #trovember #food #italian #restaurant #garlicrolls #smyrna
