Authentic Burgers – Monty’s in L.A.

Burgers, fries, and shakes. This modern-diner menu is easily better than most non-vegan restaurant chains that serve American classic entrees and desserts. They are also well-known on the Los Angeles (L.A.) scene with a strong social media following and well-established promotional campaigns.

Monty’s capitalizes on mobile food trucks that attract long lines. They also operate at music festival events held on the United States’ West Coast within reasonable distance from their several Los Angeles restaurants. Monty’s continuous operations in a highly competitive L.A. market environment, along with identifiable overhead and operational costs, is why TVD classifies recommendable investments into Monty’s Good Burger as mid-stage capital investments.

Authentic Burgers – Jerrell’s in NYC

Burgers, fries, and shakes. This edgy New York City (NYC) brand backs up its flair with highly desirable and craveable eats. Their strong following in the heart of Manhattan, where they’ve carried out a substantial part of their many operating years, along with their North Jersey presence, makes Jerrell’s a proven restaurant operator.

Furthermore, a public-facing founder and brand namesake adds to the visibility of the Jerrell’s BETR BRGR core values as well as the brand’s core competencies. Mature brand recognition in the vegan community, as well as an established operational presence over the years in a highly competitive NYC market, is why TVD classifies recommendable investments into Jerrell’s as mid-stage capital investments.
