I went Sat, June 5, but was very disappointed. The menu has been reduced to what looks more like typical bar food. The fries were good and the lamb stew was nice, but most of the foodie-type items have left the menu. The blancmange is not there and the chocolate pots-de-creme are gone too. My husband’s fish was not as good as the time we went in early May. The batter was doughy next to the fish. Nobody had to tell us the chef Stewart left. My husband guessed right away. I confirmed this by checking on the internet… Go and try it, by all means, but just for the alcohol and to hang out with friends.

I agree. Repast is great, but I thought Watershed was a bit tired. Hopefully with the Truex’s splitting up, we end up with two great restaurants, rather than one.
I’m excited about Ryan Stewart going to Farmstead as well, but hope Mac Magee’s can keep up their kitchen. They had a good review in the AJC and I’ve been meaning to try something there besides a pint.

Check that. Gotta admit a rather “friendly” piece of reporting, given the lack of information of what is going to happen to his signature restaurant.

Is the wife going to run it still? Would be great. One of the best restaurants in Atlanta.

That’s a bummer for Mac McGee’s. I liked the food, except they kept running out of menu items. I hope they get another chef with high standards. Best luck to Ryan Stewart and Farmstead 303.
