This distinctive dining restaurant located in downtown Effingham, at the corner of Banker and Jefferson, provides a relaxed yet elegant atmosphere for business or pleasure.

Rexroats is named for the founders, Marcia and Paul Rexroat, who opened the restaurant in 1983. A fantastic cook, Marcia catered many events from her home. Friends encouraged her to open a restaurant, offering fresh food unlike what you might find in a franchise.

In 2007, Chefs Evan Hixenbaugh and his fiancé, Danielle, purchased the restaurant. Graduates from the California School of Culinary Arts in Pasadena, California, Evan and Danielle have made subtle changes to the menu and décor, much to the satisfaction of the patrons. With a passion for food, they take a personal interest in every meal – you may see them in the kitchen or delivering your meal to your table!  They are committed to making your dining experience wonderful!
