Rocket Farm Restaurants, the restaurant group headed by Chef Ford Fry, is temporarily closing all of its restaurants through April 13, including takeout and delivery orders.

“We have decided to temporarily close to proactively help prevent the spread of the virus as the safety of our employees, guests and surrounding communities remains our top priority,” said a spokesperson for the group in an email to the AJC.
