Emceed by 99X’s Steve Craig and hosted by Todd Rushing of Concentrics Restaurants alongside Steve Reynolds of Reynolds Family Wines, the high-energy event will showcase a five-course dinner crafted by Executive Chef Chad Clevenger. Guests will enjoy bold pours of pinots, cabernets, red blends, and more, with highlights including beloved menu throwbacks and signature favorites like Lamb Lollipops, Smoked Brisket and Chicken, Gouda Grits, and Duck Pâté, paired with wines from Reynolds Family Winery, Monticello Vineyards, Lando Winery, Amles Wines, and Champagne Jeeper.

Since opening in 2004, TWO urban licks has been more than just a dining destination; it has been a true pioneer.

Featuring an open kitchen with wood-fired cooking, a striking 26-foot wine barrel wall, and the iconic Todd Murphy artwork, TWO redefined Atlanta’s restaurant culture. Founders Bob Amick and Todd Rushing have left a lasting impact on the city’s food scene, and TWO’s legacy lives on through the countless celebrated chefs who have passed through its kitchen, contributing to Atlanta’s reputation as a premier dining destination.
