A long-awaited restaurant from a metro Atlanta native is about to make its debut.

Carson Kitchen is slated to open Feb. 11 in the Old Courthouse building in mixed-use development Alpharetta City Center.

The restaurant comes from Cory Harwell, who grew up in Woodstock and started his culinary career at the now-closed 1904 House.

He opened the first Carson Kitchen in Las Vegas in 2014, with a menu that showcases his Southern roots with dishes including bacon jam, crispy chicken skins and a variety of sandwiches, veggies and entrees.
