Those who have driven by the former El Rey's Mexican restaurant location in Clinton in the last eight to ten months have noticed a massive transformation.

Jimmy Bekteshi and his family are taking on the transfer as they look to open 'Clinton Family Restaurant' in September or October. If you've wondered why it is taking quite a while, he says supply and worker shortages are keeping him from moving at the pace he hoped.

Traditional American food with a Greek flavor is how Bekteshi describes the coming food for his restaurant. He says there will be daily Greek specials and they plan to serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

New plumbing, flooring, ceiling tiles, and reorganizing the kitchen were just a few of the challenges the building had facing Bekteshi. He says it was a big undertaking but is excited about the coming finished product.

Bekteshi is working on getting his staff in place. You can learn more about the restaurant or employment opportunities by finding "Clinton Family Restaurant" on Facebook.
