I know the Town Center Area has been suggested. I don't really get out much, so I'm not entirely familiar with a good place we can go to eat, hang out for a bit, and have a decent parking lot.....
There are any number of restaurants in Alpharetta that are adjacent to a mall or shopping center. Surely somebody on that side of town can make a suggestion?

I was thinking something close to 285 to keep it somewhat central. Jo and I should be able get out this weekend and scope out a few spots.
Dang! Our Corvette Club has an event the weekend of Feb. 9, so we won't be able to make it.
Here are a few suggestions of Atlanta-area restaurants . . . . .
Perimeter (I-285 & Ashford Dunwoody area): Cheeseburger in Paradise - Good food, lots of fun. If you go during the day, parking shouldn't be a problem. In the evening, there's a parking deck behind the restaurant (hard to show off the Vettes in a deck, tho!). Plenty of other restaurants around Perimeter Mall.
Vinings (I-285 & Paces Ferry): Padriac's - Pub-type atmosphere. Great food, casual dining. Parking can be tight at night on the weekends . . . .
Roswell: The Swallow At The Hollow - Good barbeque, pretty big place, lots of parking.
Mid-Town: Einstein's - a little upscale, really good food.
Lawrenceville (up Hwy 316): Red Robin - great burgers!
Alpharetta (up GA-400): Buca de Beppo - Family-style Italian. I've not been, but I've heard that it's really good. There are several other restaurants near North Point Mall.
Now, that's a start. I'm sure that others can come up with some good restaurants in the Atlanta area . . . . .

We belong to the Classic Glass Corvette Club in Marietta. Just joined last fall - great bunch of folks and we've had a lot of fun. The club holds lots of events - there's something for everybody! We meet once a month at Sidelines Grill on Roswell Road. (Sidelines blocks off part of their parking lot just for the Vettes! ) If you (or anybody else!) would like to join us at our next meeting (February 12), send me a PM and I'll give you our phone number - maybe we can coordinate arrival times.
I live in buckhead and I am getting my first corvette in from california in 1.5 weeks! I am in for any event you guys can throw at me! e-mail me at ekim7878@gmail.com. Look forward to meeting all of you guys.

I was a Classic Glass member back in college but due to work and school I ran out of time. They had many great events but I just couldn't make it out often. We are planning on making a meeting soon
Y'all are planning stuff, don't forget about us southside folks!!!!! Let me know when and where and we'll see if we can make it. My youngest son has BB games on every Saturday for a while BUT should be able to make a meet and greet sometime.
