Midtown’s Fatburger Returns April 27

Fatburger's ill-fated Midtown franchise will reopen April 27 under new ownership, a company spokesperson tells Eater. The restaurant shuttered indefinitely in February after signs appeared on the door indicating the former franchisee owed a large sum of money. While the reopening offers a fresh start for the mismanaged eatery, its new owner will have to overcome the Detroit location's mixed reputation. Fatburger Detroit will offer Medium Fat Deal for $7.99 during the Grand Reopening.
