Common Quarter Closed for Good Over the Weekend

Common Quarter, the East Cobb restaurant helmed by executive chef Jeffrey Gardner, closed for the final time on Saturday night. It’s the end of a run that lasted nearly three-and-a-half years.

Last month, parent company Unsukay Concepts announced Common Quarter would shut down to make way for a second Muss & Turner’s location at 1205 Johnson Ferry Rd. It’s on track to open in about a month, and it will offer counter service during the day and table service at night. Muss & Turner’s originally opened in Smyrna in 2005.

“While Common Quarter is beloved by many, at the end of the day, the restaurant was ultimately the vision and DNA of ex-partner Chris Talley’s,” Unsukay co-founder Ryan Turner said when the change was announced. “Though Common Quarter was a fantastic restaurant, we also saw an exciting opportunity for us to grow Muss & Turner’s and bring the East Cobb community a unique concept unlike anything in their area — a chef-driven, flex-casual restaurant.”
