Venezuelan eatery Arepa Mia is relocating.

It will leave its address at 307 East College Avenue in Decatur to take the space at 10 N. Clarendon in Tudor Square in Avondale Estates, as reported by What Now Atlanta.

The final day of service for the Decatur location will be June 30.

Arepa Mia chef-owner Lis Hernandez hopes to have the restaurant up and running in its new home by mid-August.

Hernandez commented on a Tudor Square Facebook post announcing the news: "We are looking forward to be part of this community and cook my Venezuelan cuisine to you all. Thank you for all your support, we have to go thru all the city codes first before we can give you a opening date but we hope to be open not later than mid August."

Arepa Mia continues to operate its stall in Sweet Auburn Market that it opened in 2012. The Decatur location was added in 2014.
