In addition to a carefully curated food and beverage menu, the 5,000-square-foot family-friendly sports and entertainment-themed restaurant will also have one-of-a-kind pieces of Tracy McGrady and Orlando Magic memorabilia, including exclusive jerseys, an Adidas shoe wall, and never-before-seen collector’s items.

“Polk County is where I grew up, and it’s where most of my family still lives, so it’s extremely important to me that I provide a place for the community to be proud of – a place where families can come together over great food while creating lasting memories,” McGrady says. “This is more than just a restaurant to me; this is a legacy.”

The menu includes specialty appetizers, fresh salads, creative handhelds, homestyle entrees, and delicious desserts with many dishes hand-selected by McGrady himself, including Loaded Amber Beer Chili (Tracy’s favorite chili recipe), T-Mac’s PB&J Burger, and Tracy’s Cajun Pasta.

HomeCourt will also offer an extensive craft cocktail menu and a beer menu with more than 35 local, national, and international selections served at a 40-seat oval bar topped with reclaimed basketball flooring. There will also be a 20-seat weather-protected patio and a private dining room that includes an immersive golf simulator with a large high-tech screen and lounge area.

“The restaurant exhibits a high level of innovation, while also paying homage to the community that helped shape [Tracy] into the seven-time NBA All-Star that he is today,” said Hanson Li, founder and managing partner of the San Francisco-based Salt Partners Group that is partnering with McGrady on the project. “It has been a real pleasure working with Tracy and the team to bring this restaurant concept to life, and we are thrilled to begin our journey of creating a lasting impact on the neighborhoods and people that continue to inspire Tracy each and every day.”

HomeCourt by Tracy McGrady will be open Sunday through Thursday 11 a.m. – 11 p.m. and Friday and Saturday 11 a.m. – midnight.  The restaurant will also offer happy hour specials Monday through Friday, 4 – 7 p.m., and will hold special hours on game days.
