By this time next month, it’s likely Michael’s Goody Boy–the new name for the eatery that was previously known as Goody Boy Burger Club–will once again be open and serving burgers.

The restaurant, which is located at 1144 N. High St., has changed hands multiple times in its 75-year history, and is now owned by Columbus restaurateur Jacob Gaus, who also owns CJ’s Soul Food in Lewis Center and Doubletake Bar & Grill in the Brewery District.

According to Gaus, the new iteration of Goody Boy is planning a soft opening on Nov. 13.

The new owner of the storied Columbus spot has given Goody Boy a makeover, featuring a new interior mural. Gaus also said the eatery’s menu will feature plenty of new additions.

Goody Boy was most recently owned and operated by One Hospitality Group, which shuttered the restaurant in January, and had originally intended to open a new concept inside the space.
