      Evergreen    The Evergreen location was the first Illegal Burger to open its doors in August of 2013. Brandon Wage is the current manager at the Evergreen location. He is a family man with four kiddos. He is a Colorado native and went to North High School. Illegal Burger was his first food/restaurant job, as he had done construction painting for most of his life. At the beginning, Brandon was simply looking for a part-time job but ended up really liking Illegal Burger. From the company concept to the people he works with, it became his second home. Brandon enjoyed the change from hard labor to customer service. Brandon always strives for his guest to leave satisfied and with the want to come back. He enjoys being able to interact with his guest who is locals and tourist. Brandon’s favorite item on the menu is ‘The Boss,’ because as he said, “the mix of fried jalapenos and sweet pineapple have a great taste.”             WHAT’S BETTER THAN HAVING ONE?    Having Two      

  

    
       
      
         
          
             
                  
             
          

          

         
      
       
    

  


      Arvada    The Arvada location was the second operation at hand opening its doors on April of 2014. Jordan Nixon is the current manager at the Arvada location. He is a music lover and enjoys going to concerts and shows, especially at Red Rocks Amphitheater. Jordan has been around Illegal Burger before the first doors opened back in 2013. He has been around at all of the Illegal Burger locations, helping out in every way that he can. After all, he is the son of CEO, Jim Nixon. Jordan strives to make an example of himself to others and looks after his father as a role model. He first got involved with the company by cooking at the Evergreen location and has since continued to grow with the company. Jordan works hard every day to make sure Illegal Burger is in top shape for every guest that walks in. Jordan’s favorite item on the menu is ‘The Slinger’ and as he describes it, “the sweet and tangy BBQ sauce with the Cheddar Cheese, Bacon, topped off with the Onion Strings. It is the best!”             SUCCESS    IS NOT EASY      

  

    
       
      
         
          
             
                  
             
          

          

         
      
       
    

  


      Downtown    One of the most challenging projects that Illegal burger encountered was opening their third location. The Downtown Illegal Burger took 9 months to open its doors in January of 2016, while the rest of the restaurant took between two to three months. Jeremiah Padilla is the current manager at the Downtown location and encourages his team every day to create a one of a kind atmosphere. He is a Denver native and enjoys working out in his free time. Jeremiah’s will to work at Illegal Burger has been created by the way the company treats him. Like many, he has worked with corporations, but never felt like he was given the respect that he deserved. Working for Illegal Burger has made him enjoy every step of the way as he says, “Here, I am treated like a real person, not just another number.”  Jeremiah’s favorite item on the menu is the ‘Undercover Spicy Chicken’ because “Who doesn’t like chicken!”           

  

    
       
      
         
          
             
                  
             
          

          

         
      
       
    

  


      Capitol Hill    The Capitol Hill location followed the Downtown location opening in June of 2016. Joseph Griego is the current manager at the Capitol Hill location. He is a Denver native, loves the Broncos, and is a proud father of two. Joe has been working in the restaurant/food industry for many years, from being a delivery boy, cook, to now manager. Similar to Jeremiah, Joe used to work for a large corporation. “I love it here, I’m part of the company, not just another asset,” Joe expressed himself on how he feels about Illegal Burger. He enjoys working with his team, being able to interact with guest, having growth opportunities, and being able to directly communicate with the CEO. He works hard alongside with his team to create memorable experiences for every guest that walks into his restaurant. His favorite item on the menu is ‘The Boss’ because as Joe describes, “the flavor of spicy jalapeños and juicy sweet pineapple are phenomenal, there’s nothing like it.”

      Ivonne Nixon and Jim Nixon have always had a love for the restaurant/food industry. Both realized that there was not a single restaurant that offered what they wished. They decided to create a business that had their own concepts and ideas. They wanted a restaurant that was fun and unique while offering great food and drink selections. Burgers are something that both truly enjoy and wanted to be able to offer fast food that was of high quality. This set their idea on a burger joint that was fast yet casual. They were having trouble finding a name that would best fit their brand. One night, while watching television, they realized that the word “illegal” was being used frequently. This was the moment they knew what to call their restaurant, “Illegal Burger.” They believed that the name was not only fun to say, but that it would stay in people’s mind. Ivonne and Jim both worked together to create the menus, uniforms, and interior designs for each store. Both bounce ideas off each other to determine what is best for Illegal Burger.             BEHIND EVERY SUCCESSFUL MAN   THERE IS A GREAT WOMAN

         Boss Lady    Ivonne Nixon has been in the restaurant/food industry for many years. Taking part in the creation of Illegal Burger has been one of her greatest accomplishments. The logo of any company is very important as it represents the company’s identity. Ivonne has been a key part of the Illegal Burger logo making sure that it represents their company and continues to evolve with time. As the company has continued to grow, Ivonne has become an administrator and takes part in everyday decisions. She works with all level employees ensuring that customers are receiving the best food and customer service possible. Her leadership within the stores has crested positive atmospheres and she encourages all employees to do their very best. She is  a “Boss Lady” as she maintains the life of a mother with three kids, 10,8, and 10 months,  while still taking care of business.

             Undercover Kidz    Jim and Ivonne Nixon have undercover agents. Ashley Nixon, 10, and Joshua Nixon, 8, have always had an interest in the food/restaurant industry following their parents’ steps. It is due to this that the Nixons encourage their children to put their input and ideas on items such as the kids meals, milkshakes, and fries. They often become undercover shoppers visiting each location, ordering a kid’s meals, and later on giving feedback to their parents. Their goal is to make sure that kids meals quality is the best possible. They critique from the crispiness of the fries to the flavor of the burgers. They realized that Illegal Burger did not offer anything for kids to help time pass while the food was being prepared. It was then that they suggested getting Wikki-StixⓇ, colorful wax sticks to craft, to create a fun environment for the kids. At Illegal Burger kids have a voice.
