Concentrics to take over Maxim Prime spot in Glenn Hotel

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

After the announcement that Maxim Prime would be moving from its spot in the Glenn Hotel, little was said about what restaurant would replace it (one of the reasons given for the restaurant leaving was to give the Glenn more meeting space). I’ve learned however that Concentrics plans to open a restaurant in the space called 30 Tables. This hasn’t been confirmed by Concentrics, but 30 Tables already has an OpenTable page.

In other new restaurant news, Micropundit reported last week on Atlanta magazine’s blog that Gary Mennie, formerly of the recently closed Taurus, has signed on as head chef at the new restaurant planned in the Georgian Terrace hotel. The restaurant will be called Livingston.

Taurus: Lost the fight

<spaTaurus lost the fight on Dec. 31. If you call the restaurant, you will hear a message informing patrons that they have “Closed for business.”

Chef and owner Gary Mennie took the “bull by the horns,” when he opened this restaurant (his first baby). The name taken from his zodiac sign also held meaning to the food. Read Bill Addison’s review here.
