Never understood the appeal of Rosebud's; Timones was horrible and never set foot in the Family Dog.

As someone who only has 1 now-infamous memory of eating at the Family Dog, I am fine with it closing =) I think that all of the restaurant closures in Atlanta this week are a shame for the workers and all of the void in retail space that now needs to be filled but with every change comes opportunity, so we'll see what happens. Personally, C and I really love your Mattress Firm comment.

Plus, the food was garbage and over priced. I'm glad it is closing because that is a good spot for a good place to go.

We hit it on post-tennis weekend brunches a lot, when the fairly heavy food isn't as guilt ridden. Rosebud is the wrong side of the hood for us for fine dining, but always seemed to do good business. Timones was a mess - solid ingredients and bad crust is no way to make it with expensive pizza. The original idea of NY style cheap pizza by the slice take away is a solid idea - but needs a location with lots of foot traffic.Jonathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16202232297520563227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-89014824904685416842015-10-07T15:42:57.544-04:002015-10-07T15:42:57.544-04:00I personally blame Ford Fry.

Mediocre food and service at high end prices just won't do in Atlanta anymore.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-3719942590229002112015-10-07T15:15:38.118-04:002015-10-07T15:15:38.118-04:00A lot of restaurant closings in ATL this week.

Is it the best development ever? No. But retail was (before the 2 restaurant shutdowns) 90% leased. Office space is being leased. Homes are being purchased. Etc. I'm a former AS home owner. I'm not anymore. I have no connection to the space other than as a shopper, diner, movie goer. It just gets old and makes it seem like AS did something to you personally. This is obviously your website and you can write what you want, but what was once true and sometimes funny, is just yawn inducing.AJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-579719431387122896.post-37988217641091125782015-10-07T13:47:16.876-04:002015-10-07T13:47:16.876-04:00LOL!
