I have been by this restaurant, dozens of times since it has been open. Last night, a business associate was staying next door at the Ritz Carlton Buckhead. My friend insisted I join him here for dinner. As to why he did not ask me where to dine in Buckhead for steak, is beyond me. He is from NYC. Buckhead has many excellent steakhouse fine dining destinations. I was hesitant, but gladly went along. The first thing I noticed, was the smell of strong cigar smoke. I'm not a smoker, and well you know the rest. The menu read nicely, but at these prices, it had better be darn good. I opted for one of those 3-4 lobsters, I usually order across the street, at a well-known NYC steakhouse. The presentation was terrible, Why did my server forget the drawn butter? And my friend's steak was overcooked. I just smiled, and thought about all the other really great steakhouses in Buckhead. Our waiters attitude, was that of someone serving a salesman at an auto convention. I dine out several times a week, and I will never come back here, even if my friend is from New York!
Pros: It Was Near My Friend's Hotel!
Cons: Over-Hyped, Over-Priced Buckhead Steakhouse! Service?
