Flood-damaged ATL restaurant beats the odds; returns with renovations

Renovated and reopened after sustaining severe damage from September's floods, this Chattahoochee River institution's crushed conjecture that they'd be gone for good with new red-wine-hued plush velvet booths, rusty red/orange-painted walls, and dark cherry leather dining room chairs. The menu's slinging go-tos like the peppercorn-crusted NY strip, grilled Atlantic salmon (shipped within 24 hours of catch), slow-roasted Carolina rabbit (w/ Swiss chard-applewood-smoked bacon ravioli & candied garlic jus), and the BBQ pork shank, which you'd better enjoy, cause it totally got the chef tossed in solitary.
