The famous Wahlberg family opens anther restaurant in Michigan

We keep pushing a Wahlburgers in Kalamazoo, but it was Flint that most recently welcomed the restaurant to Michigan.

WNEM.com is reporting that  Actor Mark Wahlberg and chef Paul Wahlberg were in attendance for the grand opening  of the newest Wahlburgers restaurant at the Genesee Valley Center in Flint Township.

Mark told the press...

I fell in love with Michigan when I was working here. I’ve shot a number of movies here and made many friends who I consider family.

Mark went on to talk about the decision to open a Wahlbergs in Flint Township...

It reminds me a lot of Boston, especially here,. It’s good hard working people. We wanted to share an experience with them and give them something really special.

Claudia V. reported on Yelp.com - "Their burgers are freaking awesome! I thought it was going to be another gimmicky place with so-so food but I was  pleasantly surprised! Big juicy burgers at a reasonable price".

Matthew D. wrote his feeling about the restaurant on Yelp.com -  We came here for Mother's Day! Service was quick and very good! We were looking for lunch and it was not disappointing! MARIO was great and patient with our kids. The food was good too! Burger was excellent!

Jim C. stated on Yelp.comLet's 1st, say the staff was great! Team effort throughout our ex! 2nd, the atmosphere was sweet! We visited the Wahlburgers while in Boston (it was great) but this was freaking awesome here in Detroit!
Finally the food... Timely, hot and great! We had a party of 6 on Father's Day and all tried something different (and shared).
Strongly recommend this burger joint!

You can look forward to another Wahlburgers is opening  in Royal Oak soon. No work on if Mark and/or Paul will be attending the grand opening.
