Local Three
I dial the number for Local Three around noon on a Wednesday, hoping to snag a reservation for Friday night. "Let me guess," I say to the woman who ansers. "You only have 4:30 or 11 p.m. available?" She laughs, her voice dissolving into the lunchtime din behind her. "You’re not far off. We have tables left at 5:30 or 10." During these recent lean years in the Atlanta food scene, I’ve fallen out of the habit of calling ahead for dinner plans. This place is forcing me back into the routine. I settle for 6:15—the following Tuesday.

At whiplash speed even for the restaurant world, word first spread in June that Joël was closing, and then it immediately became known that the restaurant space would be taken over by Todd Mussman and Ryan Turner of Muss & Turner’s. They have partnered with chef Chris Hall, whose resume also includes Fourth & Swift and Canoe and who will oversee the (epic) kitchen in the restaurant—due to open late October or early November—that the trio is calling Local Three. Hall tells us about the space overhaul and menu philosophy.
