As Rex’s three kids — Peter, Johnny, and Stacey — grew, they learned he ropes of the restaurant business by working alongside their dad. As their interest in the business grew, Peter and Johnny teamed up with their dad at Rex’s in Wayne. Then, more than a decade after leaving Dearborn, Dimitri’s needed an overhaul — and Rex was the one to do it!

In 2013, Dimitri’s became Rex’s Golden Grill, and today, two generations of the Mourtos family bring together the best of the old and the new — serving longtime favorites like spinach pie and chicken kabobs, plus classic breakfasts, alongside popular brunch items, such as skillets and very berry stuffed French toast, plus salads, sandwiches, and dinner.

Rex boasts more than 50 years in the restaurant industry, and his experience and love of good food have been passed down from one generation to the next. At Rex’s, you’ll always see one of our owners in the building, helping ensure that every meal and every visit lives up to the quality and service our guests have come to expect.

Most importantly, Rex’s Golden Grill has always been about more than great food. It’s about creating a warm, friendly place where you’re treated like family — not just a customer.
