Chef and restauranteur Mimmo Alboumeh of Red Pepper Taqueria and Coldbrews Oyster Bar is set to open a new upscale dining concept, MAYA Steaks & Seafood, in Sandy Springs in late 2014 or early 2015.

This from the press release:

The menu at MAYA will boast an array of creative American steak and seafood dishes with a touch of Alboumeh’s signature Spanish flare. With a relaxed atmosphere and classic steakhouse feel, MAYA will also feature an impressive wine list and original cuts of meat from renowned Chicago meat purveyor, Meats by Linz. Renovations on the 1800-square foot property, located on Roswell Road in the building formally occupied by SeaBass Kitchen, will take place in the coming weeks. Additional details will be announced soon. 

"We hope to bring a great steakhouse to the Sandy Springs community. Our focus will be on creating an authentic experience with every visit based on excellent customer service and quality food, wine and spirit offerings that reflect my passion to always go above and beyond,” says Alboumeh.
