"Noni’s finished its 15-year run at the end of October 2023. Steve Josovitz of Shumacher Group sold the location with a long-term lease in January 2024. In an interview with Eater Atlanta, owner Noni’s Matt Ruppert cited “pure exhaustion” from traveling between continents and the COVID-19 pandemic’s financial impact on the Edgewood Avenue institution. Ruppert now lives in Amsterdam full-time, and runs Parakeet with his husband, Brooks. Franklyn said she and James are still connected to Ruppert, the building’s landlord. “Matt has been a great mentor throughout this process. We look forward to building on the foundation Noni’s laid and adding our Carribean spice to Edgewood.”" - Sarra Sedghi
"Noni’s closed at the end of October after 15 years. The building was just sold to a new owner." - Beth McKibben
"Noni’s Deli on Edgewood dedicates half of its menu to seriously large sandwiches. There’s no wrong order, but do try the meatball sub topped with provolone on toasted ciabatta or the Grandfather with pastrami, braised red cabbage, Russian dressing, and Swiss cheese on pressed pumpernickel bread. Do not skip the garlic fries at Noni’s." - Eater Staff
"If you could have great homestyle Italian and a giant dance party in grandma’s kitchen, you’d have Noni’s—one of Atlanta’s hottest nightlife scenes. Located on Edgewood Ave, Noni’s serves classic comfort food and craft cocktails late into the night, usually accompanied on the weekends by a live DJ, stand-up comedy, or a drag show. photo credit: Amy Sinclair photo credit: Amy Sinclair Get the sublime meatball sub, which comes draped in melted housemade provolone. In fact, all the cheese is made in-house, which is probably why the lasagna Bolognese—layered with ricotta, parmesan, and mozzarella between frilled, handmade noodles—is basically a voyage to Northern Italy in a bite. If (but really when) things get wild on Edgewood, head to Noni’s oasis of a backyard patio, which feels like a cool retreat, especially when paired with an amari spritz. photo credit: Amy Sinclair" - Rachel Garbus
"I love Noni's. Matt [Ruppert] and Ryan [Buchanan] have been like gurus and I know I can walk in there and dump whatever concerns I have and they’ll help me work through it. Their tried-and-true menu is delicious." - Sarra Sedghi
