What started as a Tuesday-only pop-up at Apocalypse BBQ has grown into a full-blown burger restaurant. Lala’s Burgers has just opened its first restaurant in Kendall, driven by overwhelming demand from loyal customers and burger aficionados.
And when we say overwhelming, we mean it. Fans recently went crazy when they learned they were selling their barbecue sauce in bottles just the other day. Therefore, you can only imagine the rush that happened when Lala’s opened this past December.
The opening marks a significant milestone for owners Jeff and Laura “Lala” Budnechky, who launched Apocalypse BBQ from their backyard in 2020, and for the Day One Hospitality team.
“This isn’t just another viral burger joint opening,” says Lala, whose restaurant is named after her. “It’s part of our ongoing mission to serve the Kendall community with bold, flavorful food and a welcoming environment. What started as a simple backyard project has turned into something extraordinary, and we’re thrilled to have a home where residents of Kendall and beyond can enjoy Lala’s every day.”
