The story behind Killer Burger

What is Killer Burger and where is it going?

This week’s episode of the Restaurant Business podcast A Deeper Dive features John Dikos, CEO of the 20-unit Killer Burger, along with VP of Financial Planning Adam Sanders.

The episode was recorded at the ICR Conference, where we spoke with the two about the burger chain and its overall growth strategy.

Killer Burger operates 20 company and franchised locations in the Pacific Northwest and says it is “redefining” the American diner burger for the “modern world.” The company is part of a generation of fast-casual concepts that promise a higher level of service along with alcohol.

Dikos and Sanders talk about how they plan to grow, what they’re doing to get the company ready for that growth and the overall state of the industry.
