Dinner, Oh a really long time ago - Repast
Quite some time ago we went to dinner at Repast. It has gotten loads of good reviews and it is very close to our condo. Theoretically, I could walk, but this Atlanta. The restaurant is owned by two chefs who are husband and wife. The kitchen is open and could see them working together. Kind of neat. That night we had a reservation, but the restaurant was so slammed it was over 30 minutes until we sat down. There is a small bar area, so we had cocktails till it the hostess came to sit us.
The space is rather small and somewhat loud. Ed and I could still hear each other though. Service was good and the waiter had quality advice to give about the food. We chose to share plates. The dish I really enjoyed was the foie gras hot dogs. It is not as scary as it sounds. Ed really like it too. (There was a write up about in the AJC.) The cheese plate was not interesting. I could do a better job going to my local Whole Foods. But that is just me. We also had a mussel dish that was excellent.
Repast, overall was a good experience. I would like to go back and try items from the entree list. Side note, in the same block is a new bar/lounge called Cru that has opened. It is supposed to have a laid back vibe and good music. Sounds like a good possibility if your party is up for a late night.
