A Charlotte-based steakhouse chain is making a play for Georgia.

Firebirds Wood Fired Grill, will open its 39th location -- and first Georgia store -- May 9 at The Atwater at 2665 Old Milton Parkway in Alpharetta. Firebirds, which specializes in steaks, seafood, chicken and ribs, has locations throughout the country including in South Carolina, Tennessee, Florida and Alabama.

"Alpharetta is an important market for Firebirds...we are looking forward to becoming a staple in the community,” said vice president of marketing Stephen Loftis.
