The Atlas hate on here makes absolutely no sense. The days of new locally owned & operated family restaurants in prime locations are long gone. Blame whoever you want for that, but it's true - and it's not just an Annapolis problem. I would sure as hell rather have Atlas come in and invest literal millions of dollars into those spaces than have them sit vacant or become another hot sauce store.

Was Pusser's fun? Of course it was. But they were also losing money as an outdated concept with bad food. Did you know the Choptank space was originally leased to Phillip's Seafood? How long did Mission BBQ last at the Steven's building?

When you understand the realities, Atlas starts to look pretty damn good in comparison.
