Former Hotel Palomar restaurant experiences identity crisis

Temporarily slated to reopen as R Restaurant and Lounge, Pacci Ristorante is now operating as Briza Restaurant & Rooftop Bar, What Now Atlanta learned Friday through a tweet from John Kessler.

“California chef Janine Falvo cooking transitional menu,” said Kessler.

Karen, an employee at the restaurant located in the former 21-story Hotel Palomar Atlanta Midtown, a boutique hotel at 866 West Peachtree street, confirms the restaurant’s branding changed as of Friday morning.

“We are going to be maintaining a similar concept to Pacci and AltroRex,” said Karen. “We should be coming up with something concrete in the next week or two.”

Karen would not disclose her last name or occupation at the hotel.

Marriott International was hired by the Thayer Lodging group earlier this year to replace Kimpton Hotels & Restaurant Group at the Hotel Palomar.

Marriott re-branded the property as a Renaissance Hotel Friday (story here).
