The Colonnade, a historic Atlanta dining institution, has introduced its first-ever printed wine listâmarking a significant modernization after nearly 100 years. Co-owner Paul Donahue highlights the long absence of such a list, as well as the restaurant's evolution in accepting credit cards. Along with the wine list, they've revamped the menu, reintroducing favorites at reduced prices, emphasizing comfort food reminiscent of home cooking. The simple wine selections include offerings from Oregon and Germany, enhancing the dining experience while preserving the restaurant's traditional essence and family-oriented food philosophy.
"There was a hint on the menu of 'ask our servers about our wine' in the '50s and '60s. But never a printed wine list," says Paul Donahue.
"It's the kind of food you'd love to cook at home - something your mother or grandmother would have cooked at home. That's what we wanted to preserve," says Donahue.
"I love the combination of two historic places coming together! While Benton-Lane is a bit younger than Colonnade, we are nearly 40 years old," says Gretchen Boock.
"Now you can have that, too," Donahue says regarding the combination of food and wine now available at Colonnade.
