Local Three

Specialties

American cuisine with a focus on fresh, local products.

**Our Sunday Brunch was named one of the best in Atlanta by the AJC. We offer a buffet that is a crowd-​pleaser for the whole family! $ 29.93 for adults, $ 12.93 for kids 6 – 12, and kids under 6 eat free!**

We buy the freshest ingredients we can find. We cook seasonally because that’s what is fresh and best. We support local farmers and businesses whenever we can, because it’s the right thing to do and the best flavor naturally follows.

We believe that great food doesn’t have to be tremendously expensive & is best enjoyed in a casual atmosphere amongst friends and family (yes, that includes the kids)!

We try to be «green» whenever we can. We believe in sustainability, both environmentally & fiscally. In the end, it all comes back to that little mantra: you can’t argue with delicious.

History

Established in 2010.

Local Three is born of a shared set of values between Todd Mussman and Ryan Turner (of Atlanta’s Muss & Turner’s) and noted Atlanta chef Chris Hall (most recently 4^th & Swift). These values can be summed up in these words: People Matter Most, Local Is Priority, Seasonal Makes Sense, Authenticity Rules, Quality Governs, Delicious Trumps, Pretense Stinks, Comfort Feels Good, Appreciation Tastes Better, Prudence Sustains It All. With this combined philosophy at its heart, Local Three reflects a clear image of Chef Hall’s food, style of cooking, personality and leadership.

Business Owner

Chef Chris Hall

Chris is both chef and managing partner at Local Three, which is why he has the least hair of the three partners. A self-​taught cook, Chris worked in kitchens from Philadelphia’s Le Bec Fin to Atlanta’s Canoe and 4^th & Swift. He grew up around the corner on Peachtree Battle Avenue and thus really is a local. Chris now lives in Smyrna with his wife Julie, who you’ll see in the restaurant frequently. An avid Georgia Tech fan, Hall considers home game Saturdays religious ceremonies. You have been warned.

How Local Three Came to Be…

In the winter of 2005, Todd Mussman and Ryan Turner, friends who worked together at the now-​closed Food Studio, ventured out into the barren wilderness that was Smyrna to open Muss & Turner’s, a gourmet deli, food shop, and wine store. Almost six years later, M&T’s, as it’s affectionately known across town, is a staple on the Atlanta food scene with a well-​deserved reputation for terrific food, warm hospitality and killer beer and wine list
