A Perfect Gem

The moody boldness of the Grady is the exact atmosphere I inadvertently needed. From the light fixtures to the TALL ceiling. The staff were warm and helpful. But let me tell you, the pour over coffee, wow!!! I just bought my own Fellow kettle and Copper Cow coffee, I enjoyed it that much. Location is perfect. Easy to find. The restaurant is delicious. I didn't anticipate the $50 for valet, but the service was very convenient. I had to leave early in the morning, before they started their shift, and they had my car waiting for me. It's a gem!
