Atlanta restaurateur Guy Wong teased a new project in Midtown this week.
Wong will open Big Boss in an undisclosed location, Atlanta Business Chronicle first reported. He posted about the project on his Instagram account:
My mother’s restaurant of 14 years, like so many other restaurants, closed down during the pandemic. It was broken into and suffered much damage. We were certain that the restaurant would not reopen. On top of many losses, having to break the lease would have meant financial ruin. After many months she was able to take out a loan. Due to the level of damage that was done, I have been asked to return to help rebrand and give new life to the space.
He said he plans to open Big Boss late this year or early next year.
Wong, who owns Ton Ton and Miso Ko inside Ponce City Market and Ruby Chow’s in Old Fourth Ward, was also behind Miso Izakaya, which closed in 2018, and Le Fat, which changed ownership last year.
