If you’re headed to an Atlanta Braves game soon, there’s a new eatery near SunTrust Park, and it’s owned by a familiar face.

According to WXIA, Dale Murphy recently celebrated the opening of Murph’s at the Cobb Galleria Centre. During the opening weeks, the Braves legend took pictures with customers and helped prepare and serve some of the food.

The restaurant’s website appears to be under construction, but it includes a full menu, which features a variety of burgers, sandwiches, desserts and more.
