if you’ve ever been to Lazy Betty, you know that the neighborhood that surrounds it is as charming as the restaurant. Now it’s time for a change of scenery for the restaurant, which opened in Atlanta’s Candler Park neighborhood in 2019.

Lazy Betty owners Aaron Phillips and Ronald Hsu have decided to move the eatery into the space formerly occupied by Empire State South, which closed in March.

You can expect the same menu items and all the other stuff you love about Lazy Betty, according to a press release announcing the news. What will be new will be the bar menu along with some a la carte menu items.

“Empire State South saw some of the city’s best chefs pass through its kitchen, and we’re honored to carry the torch for such a great culinary space,” Hsu said in a written statement. “While our location will change, our ethos will continue to be the same. We’re excited to invite the community to come together, eat well and live unhurried in the heart of the city.”
