The business is 100% Canadian-owned and operated, founded by John F. Lettieri. A trained cheesemaker, Lettieri established the company in 2003 after finding it difficult to source all-natural 100% Seasoned Angus beef burgers with real Canadian cheddar cheese outside of high-end establishments. The company emphasizes the use of premium, locally sourced ingredients and maintains a commitment to sustainability and community involvement. They specifically partner with ranchers to source 100% Angus Beef cattle that are grain-fed and raised in a free-range environment. Customers can customize their meals by choosing from various proteins, including Angus Beef, Grilled Chicken Breast, Crispy Chicken Breast, and a plant-based Soul Patty, along with different bun types and a variety of toppings like blue cheese, smoked white cheddar, and guacamole. The restaurant provides gluten-free options for bread, proteins, and several toppings. For schools, they offer a 1-year lunch program that includes delivery support, fundraising opportunities, and contest sponsorships. Orders can be placed in-store or online.
