I wish them all the best, but this place sounds like the antithesis of what I’m looking for when going to a steak restaurant. Gold coated steak? I just want a good steak cooked perfectly. Gold coating? Why?
It’s an interesting idea, but I’m curious about the self-centered showboats who would purchase a dish like this. I know a lot of people struggling in this economy. Sound like Atlanta may have a large number of Marie Antoinette wannabees. LOL.
We shall see if this succeeds. All of the other restaurants in this space have really struggled – parking issues included. I do hope they start taking care of the exterior – very nasty the other day – trash over flowing the dumpster, delayed maintenance on the building, homeless camping on the stairs long term, rough landscaping.
