My wife, Roushan, and I founded Salad and Go in 2011 and exited in 2021. After my mother's passing in March 2020, we wanted to create something to honor her. Angie was a single mother who worked hard to give me and my sister everything we needed and wanted. We thought, what better way to honor her memory than by making a luxury food, like Maine lobster, affordable to the hard-working, everyday American, rather than just to the few who can afford it. After we launched our first concept, Angie's Lobster in 2022, we realized just how much these luxury foods mean to hard-working Americans. We were blown away by the enthusiasm and appreciation for making something like Maine lobster, that was once only enjoyed on special occasions, into something that's now a part of their weekly routine. In 2023, we set out to further our mission with our second concept, Angie's Prime Grill, by bringing grilled-to-order, USDA Prime Steak to the drive-thru! It wasn't long after opening Angie's Prime Grill that we stumbled upon an opportunity. While trimming our USDA Prime steak in-house, we couldn't help but think twice about all those prime steak trimmings going to waste. Those trimmings were exactly what was needed to create the ultimate Prime Steakhouse Burger. From Angie's Prime Grill, we set off working on our newest endeavor and concept -- Angie's Burger! We are excited to begin testing our 8oz USDA Prime Steakhouse Burgers at our Angie's Prime Grill location in Central Phoenix in late April 2024. Angie's Food Concepts is a company that will live every day like Angie lived her life -- full of love, courage, compassion, servant leadership, energy, fight and fun. We will carry out her legacy by making luxury foods affordable to everyone!
