Grease fire closes popular College Park restaurant

A popular College Park restaurant is closed until further notice after a grease fire.

The fire broke out Thursday morning at Virgil’s Gullah Kitchen and Bar on Main Street.

Fortunately, no one was injured, but two neighboring businesses – Milk & Honey and Johnny’s Chicken & Waffles – were affected.

Three businesses are currently trying to reopen.

Virgil’s Gullah Kitchen and Bar opened in 2019 and is owned by Juan and Gee Smalls.

Although the restaurant hasn’t said when its Main Street location will be back in business, the owners say you can still visit their restaurants in West Midtown and Conyers.
