The 1,250-square-foot space, at 3861 Siniard St., was originally built as a Bruster’s Ice Cream before Theze Bonez, a barbecue restaurant, moved in. The space has been empty since Theze Bonez closed at the end of 2018.

The Scott family, originally from Clarendon, Jamaica, first opened Judy’s Island Grill in Park Heights, Baltimore in 2004. The restaurants are co-owned by chef Pauline “Judy” Scott and Freka Scott.

What Now Atlanta has reached out to the Scotts for comment.
