Food With a Mission
Friends Isaac Mogannam and Michael Limongelli founded Mission Burger Co. with a unique idea in mind. It was to serve ethical, satisfying, and delicious food to the community. It stems from the idea that food should taste good and also do good for the world.
“Mission Burger Co. is rooted in the idea that food should not only taste good – it should do good,” says Mognnam. “We ethically recreate plant-based American comfort food classics, and our dishes evoke nostalgia for vegans and meat lovers alike.”
The restaurant is changing the game in Atlanta’s food scene for vegans. Their bold, creative take on comfort food showcases the founders’ vision for plant-based dining.
Special Guests at the Grand Opening
The opening ceremony didn’t just include these special guests, but also locals who were invited for a special treat. Via social media, an invitation for the community was sent. It called for locals on June 26 to enjoy free cookies, ice cream, and more after 6 PM.
“I always knew this was a community that would appreciate and love what we do at Mission Burger, and we’ve already seen that to be true in our soft opening the past couple of weeks.” Mogannam adds, “We are thrilled and humbled to serve Atlanta and beyond.”
