On a recent trip to Athens for a UGA football game, we pop into Ted’s for a post-game meal with our solo offspring. So do a lot of other people, which makes the line go out the door.

Ritter’s: 9/6/13
Sometimes Date Night is still at our headquarters in Marietta when it’s time to figure out where to go on our date.

Mac McGee’s (Roswell): 8/30/13
There are a lot of places to eat on the Canton Street strip in Roswell, which means there is a lot of competition for our dining dollars.
