New York City — MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes, a fast-casual, “better burger” chain, opened its first restaurant in New York City on Feb. 1. The city’s first MOOYAH also marks the first MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes restaurant for Nick and Art Depole. The twin brothers grew up in Los Angeles and were big fans of the brand.
“We always loved MOOYAH’s food, and once we were introduced to their business model and leadership team, we were blown away by the opportunity,” says Nick Depole.
Located near New York’s iconic Times Square, the new restaurant features a streamlined layout to promote delivery and takeout. Nick and Art are confident that the MOOYAH concept will fit perfectly with New York’s fast-paced crowd and the two look forward to opening the dining room when the pandemic restrictions lift. The Depoles also hope to open more locations in the city over the coming years.
In February 2020, MOOYAH opened its first restaurant featuring the new prototype that showcases new dining zones and seating arrangements, purposeful third-party and to-go shelving, a closed kitchen, digital menu boards and a new logo. The Times Square restaurant is one of the first 10 new locations nationally that has been designed to feature the updated look.
MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes was founded in 2007 in Plano, Texas. For more information, visit www.franchise.mooyah.com or www.MOOYAH.com.
