It's not unique though. They go to a good restaurant in another city, badly imitate it, and then charge a premium for it. They appeal exclusively to those with money that don't know what to do with it.

I mean I wouldn’t put any of their restaurants on my list of faves in the city although I do like Tagliata and Monarque is also pretty good, but I think they put together a good solid experience. If I’m going out to eat I’m going to Prime Rib, Le Comptoir du vin, Magdalena, Alma.. places like that. This city has some amazing chefs that often get lost in the noise but I would say most of those aforementioned places don’t have the vive where you feel like you’re not in Baltimore except for maybe Prime Rib, where you feel like you’re about to get whacked at any given moment.

Now I see your point, you like atlas bc of the strict “dress code” so you never have to feel uncomfortable or in your words “like you’re about to get whacked at any moment”

You seem fun lol there is no dress code there any longer from the looks of it. Honestly I don’t feel very comfortable at most of the atlas places.. not my crowd.
