Born In Detroit was brought to life in 2020,
by two sets of brothers Michael and Anthony Tomey and George and Alex Bourkoulas, along with their friend, Michael “Mikey” Shumaker, who were all Born in Detroit. These men wanted to showcase the pride of Detroiters near and far and to establish a brand to champion the city and surrounding communities.
“We are incredibly excited about these developments,” said Anthony Tomey, Co-Owner of Born In Detroit. “Extending our lease in Detroit allows us to continue being a part of this amazing community, while our new restaurant at Detroit Metro Airport gives us the opportunity to share the flavors of Detroit with a global audience. These expansions are a testament to our brand’s growth and our unwavering commitment to celebrating and promoting Detroit’s unique culture.”
