MOOYAH takes on Connecticut

May 31, 2011

Residents of Hartford, Conn., are getting their first MOOYAH location, also marking the company’s first location in the state. The restaurant will be opened by Matt Rusconi and David Vorchheimer, longtime friends and the system's newest MOOYAH franchisees.

Connecticut’s first MOOYAH location at State House Square will cater to the lunch crowd and operate during the hours of 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Friday. Rusconi and Vorchheimer also have signed a lease to open a second MOOYAH location later this year in West Hartford, which will be open for lunch and dinner.

“Unlike so many burger chains, the MOOYAH brand isn’t boring or age specific. MOOYAH is colorful, friendly and has more variety. The food is excellent. And the atmosphere and vibe really have something for everybody,” Vorchheimer said.

MOOYAH is based out of Frisco, Texas, and has restaurants opening in Tennessee, Louisiana, Arkansas, Kansas, Virginia, Maryland, Connecticut and Washington, D.C.
