History

The restaurant was opened in 2022 by Telly Justice and Camille Lindsley.[1][2] Due to issues with the space occupied by the restaurant, HAGS temporarily closed two months after it opened. The restaurant reopened after three months.[3] Upon reopening, the restaurant's menu changed to focus on vegetarian and vegan options.[3]
