Isis Restaurant and Music Hall briefly lit up Haywood Road last week as the owners tested out the historic theater's marquee. Surrounded by cheerful red and yellow lighting, the message read, “Coming soon. Apply in person.” Scott Woody and his family, who have owned the building since 1998 and collaborated on its restoration, will meet with applicants on Sept. 5 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and 2 to 5 p.m.
Woody hesitates to put his finger on a specific date when the restaurant and music venue will open its doors, but it’s definitely happening this fall, he says.
