by supershag on Oct.12, 2012, under Atlanta, Beer, Bellini, Champagne, Cocktails, Free Wi-Fi, Irish Coffee, Lobster BLT, Parking/Valet, Roof Deck/Patio, Steak Frites, Swanky, Vegan, Wine
Buckhead is the ritziest suburb of Atlanta.Paces 88 is located in the St Regis hotel.
Paces 88 is a very upscale American Bistro .
I was there for lunch and there was a vegan option not shown on the main menu.
I did not have a starter but went with an Irish coffee. Nothing special here but the presentation was very nice.
Steak frites was also very good.
Lobster BLT was ok but nothing to write home about.
If the weather is good try the outside patio. Very cool.

Atlanta Grill Ritz Carlton Atlanta
by supershag on Oct.11, 2012, under Atlanta, Beer, Free Wi-Fi, Hotels, Irish Coffee, Music, Parking/Valet, Roof Deck/Patio, Steak Frites, Swanky, Wine
This Ritz is located on Peachtree Street in downtown Atlanta.
This ritz is actually very modern inside but the Atlanta Grill is very traditional both inside and out.
The place to eat is this outside balcony right on peachtree street. It is very amusing as some of the locals are very colorful .
Inside the atmosphere is what you would expect at the Ritz.
The Irish coffee was excellent.
The beer menu was quite extensive.
I plumped for the beer tasting menu. Very good.
We visited mid afternoon so the menu was a bit limited.
Steak frites was very basic but excellent.
So nothing out of the ordinary but everything that you would expect from the Ritz brand.

Local 1110 Savannah

What a great restaurant . Not at all what I expected to find in Savannah. Located at the tip of Forsyth Park it is located in a charming old building.
The interior is very cool in a very contemporary way and would not look out of place in New York.
I really liked the lighting which created a very soothing atmosphere
This is not a cheap restaurant with prices on a par with Boston . The food is all locally produced(well most if it is) and the service was excellent.
They carried my favorite beer which made the visit worthwhile by itself.
I started with quail stuffed with chorizo which was excellent.
My main course was steak frites.once again this was great.
After dinner I had a couple of drinks on the roof-deck which was very cool.
The trees surrounding the roof were very interesting. Oaks covered with Spanish moss.
Just visited again in Jan 2013.
Some new dishes which did not disappoint.
Deffo 2 thumbs up from me.
Strawberry salad was very good.
Coq au Vin was not that tasteful at the beginning . As the meal cooled it became more flavorful . Quite light not as rich as the usual coq au vin offering.
Tile fish with curry was an interesting combo but tasted very nice.
