Local 3's Paul Shahen saw social media lit up with excitement when Little Rome announced they'd be re-opening in Chatsworth, GA. So, he had to see what the buzz was all about. The classic Italian eatery smell hits you before you have a chance to open the doors to their new location on 2nd Ave in historic downtown Chatsworth.

The location is new because a fire in 2021 burned their previous restaurant to the ground a mile outside of historic downtown. Opened by current owner Taylor Hord's stepdad in 1979 with nothing but a promise to the only bank that would loan him money, Hord committed with his wife to pull off a re-opening.
