There’s nothing quite like slammin’ barbecue in the summertime. A new entry into the Atlanta market is going to be downright delicious.
Pittmaster John Lewis is opening his new Atlanta restaurant soon in Atlanta’s Ansley Mall, bringing Central Texas-style barbecue with it.
In a Facebook post last year, the eatery posted this message:
Sending out the smoke signal! We’re thrilled to announce that Lewis Barbecue will open an Atlanta property next year. This will be our third outpost and first in the Peach State and we can’t wait to bring smoked brisket and ice-cold beers just off the Beltline.
We’re setting up shop in Ansley Mall and while we still have a way to go with construction, we’re hoping to launch in 2025. In the meantime, we’ll be announcing some pop-ups in the area and can’t wait to get involved in the ATL community soon.
What To Expect From the Menu at Lewis Barbecue
Lewis, who will be serving up his signature brisket, pork spareribs, pulled pork, turkey, and hot guts sausage, complemented by sides such as potato salad, collard greens, and fries cooked in tallow.
The restaurant will also feature a full bar and desserts like banana pudding. This marks Lewis Barbecue’s first Georgia location.
