    It isn’t hard to believe this iconic Atlanta restaurant is a Michelin recipient of this prestigious award. The overall experience is exceptional! Wine selection was a perfect selection of old and new world. Let’s fast forward to our Thanksgiving Meal! Choice of fish, beef or poultry. We’re a fam of 5 so we were able to try a bite of each all full of rich and savory flavors. And the sides could all stand alone! Our server Jazz didn’t disappoint with all the recommendations and service provided. This mid century gem is one that must be on your bucket list! Chefs kiss !!

    This is a really nice restaurant. The food and service is phenomenal. The only downside is that both times that I have gone to the buffet, they always run out of Grilled Salmon for good before I can get any. They are cut in small little cubes and I can’t understand why it’s always the salmon that they can’t replenish. Super disheartening when you don’t eat pork, beef or chicken. For $60 pp they should be able to get someone to run to a grocery store real quick. Sheeshhh Other than that, I’d recommend.
