Kevin:    Unfortunately, this was not what I had in mind when I visited here.  Parking is crazy, but they have valet parking, so that works out.  I would not want to try to park and get out.  First off, nothing was bad. but that is not really glowing at this price point.   You get the feel of an uppity place upon arriving.  Very professional, but not so welcoming as some other fine dining restaurants we have visited.  We had the oysters, filet martini, salad and a prime ribeye.  All were good, and better than most places in Canton.  But, at the price point, you have much better options within 30-45 minutes.  My only complaint about food quality is the oysters.  I felt they should have higher quality oysters.  Maybe West Coast or Canadian oysters.  I know they are a little more expensive, but when you are paying $200-$300 for dinner you don't want gulf oysters. 

Melissa: I would rather make the drive to Roswell than come here.  The valet is great, and they are friendly.  The service is the killer for me - most of the bartenders are unfriendly and service from them is slow.  None of the food was bad, it was just the service, for me.
