(LBF) -- The historic Louisville restaurant that claims to have invented the cheeseburger will soon open with new life.

The new restaurant, 80/20 @ Kaelin's, will open June 7, according to a post on the restaurant's Facebook page. The restaurant will keep its ties to the original Kaelin's Restaurant, which first opened in 1934.

That rich history is what attracted the ownership team to the building, which is at 1801 Newburg Road, at Speed Avenue. After Kaelin's closed, the building housed Mulligan's Pub and Grille.

Bill DuBourg, along with his business partners Chris Fenton and Matt Staggs, are reimagining the Louisville restaurant and bringing it back to life. The project to reclaim its rich history has been in the works for nearly two years, and in two weeks the restaurant will finally open.
