Bludso’s BBQ opening first Atlanta location in Castleberry Hill Aug. 6.

Atlanta will soon get a “taste of Texas style barbecue” in Castleberry Hill.

California-based Bludso’s BBQ submitted a building permit application to City of Atlanta this week to make commercial alterations to existing restaurant space, at 323 Walker St.

Damien Scroggins, co-owner of Bludso’s BBQ in Compton California, is opening the new Castleberry Hill barbecue joint in space formerly occupied by The Olde Kitchen, according to Bludso’s BBQ’s Atlanta website.

The barbecue restaurant is slated to open August 6, according to the Bludso’s Atlanta Facebook page.
