MOOYAH has come a long way since its founding in Dallas, Texas, in 2007. The brand has expanded into 19 states and 10 countries with its incredible franchise partners. MOOYAH was acquired by Gala Capital Partners, LLC, led by restaurant and franchise industry veteran Anand Gala, in April 2017.

Each gourmet burger can be customized with five cheeses, Applewood smoked bacon, sliced avocado, along with nine free veggie toppings and 11 free sauces.
