The Boston-based Wahlburgers burger chain is set to open its first Michigan restaurant in Detroit’s Greektown this summer.

Greektown Casino-Hotel (soon to be known as Jack Detroit Casino-Hotel Greektown) Thursday confirmed the chain will locate in the historic Greektown Entertainment District, across from the casino at 569 Monroe St.

Crain’s first reported the burger chain was headed to Greektown in December.

The chain is owned by brothers Donnie, Paul and Mark Wahlberg, who “... share our deep passion for urban revitalization,” said Mark Dunkeson, president and COO of Greektown Casino-Hotel’s parent company, Jack Entertainment LLC, in a release.

Wahlburgers will be operated by franchise owner Nino Cutraro, who owns Birmingham restaurant Bella Piatti with his wife Elizabeth and co-owns M&N General Contracting LLC in Troy.

Cutraro is the past owner of restaurants including: Intermezzo Italian Ristorante, Enoteca Campo Marzio wine bar in the First National Building downtown, the Ultimate Sports Bar & Grill in Pontiac and Amici's Italian Village in Farmington Hills.

Renovations are planned to convert the Monroe Street space to two stories for Wahlburgers, bringing its total space to 4,200 square feet, the companies said in a release.

The restaurant and bar will be open daily for lunch and dinner.
