Atomic Chicken Set to Open April 12 in Detroit's New Center Area

Atomic Chicken, featuring chicken & waffles, fried chicken, and chicken sandwiches prepared with marinades like Vernors and sweet garlic, will open at 6500 Woodward Avenue in Detroit's New Center area on April 12, Eater Detroit reports.

The restaurant is founded by Scott Moloney, owner of Treat Dreams and Woodpile BBQ Shack, in partnership with chef Greg Reyner of Cafe Muse.

The restaurant is located in a spot previously occupied by Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen. It’s expected to feature a larger dine-in area than its carryout-only predecessor in Clawson as well as a liquor license and online-ordering, reports Brenna Houck of Eater Detroit.
