M572 Surrenders, Will Close This Weekend

Tucker's M572 announced earlier this afternoon that they will be closing this weekend after two years in business.  The restaurant, located on Main Street in downtown Tucker, opened in 2015 and was helmed by executive chef Jon Allen, a native of Lilburn and current resident of nearby Smoke Rise.  M572 was owned by the same group that ran neighboring eatery The Local No. 7.  


The restaurant posted the following message to their Facebook page.  

"All of us, at M572, are sad to announce that we will be closing our doors after Sunday Brunch this weekend. It has been an amazing 2 years and we greatly appreciate each and every one of you. Seeing the growth and comradery of the community gives us excitement for the future of Tucker. It’s never easy to do something new, but we tried our best and we are truly saddened to say goodbye. As members of this community, we feel that it is important to share this news prior to closing our doors, giving you all an opportunity to stop in for dinner this week and enjoy one of your favorite meals.  

A special thank you goes out to Chef Jon Allen, without him none of this would have been possible. He has continued to impress over the past 2 years and we look forward to working with him in the future.

THANK YOU TUCKER for allowing us to do our thing at M572!"

When M572 opened, they replaced a short-lived bakery, Sweet Dee's Bakeshop.  In the years since, little has changed on Main Street until recently.  Matthews Cafeteria renovated a few months ago, and around the same time, Magnolia Room Cafeteria opened on Hugh Howell, not far away.  More recently, Dunwoody's Village Burger announced it will open what will be its third area location on Main Street.  The restaurant, which will open in place of The Tucker Fountain on Main Street, is currently expected to open in mid-October. 

Are you surprised that M572 is closing?  What would you like to see open in place of M572?  What is your favorite Tucker area restaurant?
