Thanks guys - does anyone know of a local only restaurant in the area that is any good? A lot of these seem to be regional chains or part of a restaurant "group".

If you're looking for $10-20 entrees, I think you'll have a tough time with any of the restaurants that have been recommended. $20 doesn't go too far for a dinner entree- especially at a one-off restaurant that serves decent food.

I think we can go higher - I just didn't want something really extravagant so $10-20 seemed to be a good jumping off point.

This is about 15 - 20 minutes away from Perimeter, but I think you will really like it.

I was going to suggest Chequers but it's a non-local chain.

I'm not completely opposed to Buckhead since we can hop on the 400 and be down there in a few minutes. I was just hoping for something a little closer to Perimter area. But, it kind of seems like Perimeter is chain central in terms of restaurants and we want something that's a bit more sophisticated and sexy without being outrageously expensive. I think Buckhead would be about as far as I'd be willing to go though since I don't know my way around that well.

Yes, the Perimeter Mall area is chain central, IMO.
