The Piedmont Heights neighborhood newsletter has this interesting little slider of information on its Web site:
“Scheduled to open in the August/September timeframe (sic), Piedmont Heights will soon have another neighborhood restaurant. Grindhouse Burgers has their first success in the Sweet Auburn Curb Market location. This summer the owners will be re-developing the old abandoned Detail Car Wash at the corner of Wimbledon Road and Piedmont Road into a swanky new patio restaurant called Grindhouse Burgers.”
A call to the restaurant confirms it.
Fat Matt’s. Sheik Burritos. Now Grindhouse. Piedmont Heights is turning into quite the interesting alterna-food neighborhood.

Great – this will be much more convenient for me. The burger dining explosion has been interesting to watch and has made for some great burgers. I wonder what will follow?

Their veggie burger is the best in the city! I can’t wait to have a location near me!
