dogwood restaurant to close ~ what now, atlanta?

Upscale Southern farm-to-table eatery scheduled to close in Midtown.

Dogwood Restaurant is closing.

The upscale Southern farm-to-table eatery across from Bank of America Plaza at 565 Peachtree Street will close its doors Tuesday, June 14, the Atlanta Journal Constitution first reported.

A statement from the restaurant’s publicist confirms the Dogwood’s scheduled closure.

Here’s the official statement:

Dogwood Restaurant, located at 565 Peachtree Street, Atlanta, Ga., is closed as of Tuesday, June 14, 2011.

While Dogwood has been overwhelmed by the support of loyal customers, the current economic environment and lower than anticipated sales have led ownership to make this unfortunate decision.

Dogwood is appreciative of the remarkable service and support offered by its team of employees and put forth by all of its partners and vendors. The team remains proud of the impression Dogwood made on the Atlanta dining scene.

Dogwood Restaurant was not immediately available for comment and there is no word on what will replace the Midtown restaurant.
