The restaurant was opened by Zachary “Big Zak” Wallace, who was a well-known name in Atlanta’s hip-hop community prior to opening Local Green Atlanta.

“In 2017, he sought out to make a difference. Starting with a Local Green Atlanta food truck, Wallace wanted to spread an awareness for tasty, fulfilling plant-based cuisine in these Atlanta communities. Now, his Vine City restaurant, Local Green Atlanta, continues to spread that message, serving not just health—but hope,” the website reads.
