CARLSBAD, Calif. — A popular fast-casual burger brand has officially opened the doors to a new location in North County.

Known for its customizable burgers, hand-cut fries and hand-spun shakes, MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes has made its debut in Carlsbad. It’s the very first location in the San Diego region and the eighth location to open in California.

Their ridiculicious, fast-casual “best burger” concept, as described by the brand, is committed to providing the best tasting burger experience possible.

How is this done? The restaurant says it specializes in the “taste trifecta,” which consists of “mouthwatering” made-to-order burgers, hand-cut French fries and real ice cream shakes.
