Veggie Grill & Next Level in San Francisco
Next Level Burger and Veggie Grill are two legacy brands that have since merged and, while one initially acquired the other, operate as equals with distinct operating brands. Their menus offer a blend of fast casual restaurant menus that branch out from burgers, wraps, mac n’ cheese, vegetable dishes, and desserts, to tailored seasonal menus during October for Halloween themes, November for Thanksgiving themes, and more. They have locations in Boston, Los Angeles, NYC, Seattle, Portland, San Diego, San Francisco, San Jose, Denver, Austin, and more. Their restaurant buildouts compete with traditional fast casual restaurant venues and are either a standalone venue or a storefront within shopping plazas, or even nestled within markets such as Whole Foods Market.
