With Majid's St. Matthews, he's poised to repeat that success. The newly remodeled space is a masterpiece of carefully integrated elegance done up in warm colors, with glittering glass and mirrored details, lighting designed to foster a sense of intimacy, and carefully delineated spaces that let patrons choose between the bar (which has live music Wednesday-Saturday) and dining rooms that are sonically separate from the bar, but still connected, via judiciously placed window panels.
