Summary

When Lawrence Longo launched the Off the Menu app, he was not envisioning becoming one of the most prolific restaurateurs in Los Angeles. Yet a decade later, that's exactly where we are. Lawrence is responsible for the birth of Prince St. Pizza in Los Angeles, rescuing beloved stalwart Irv's Burgers, launching Tacos 1986 & even pioneering the smashburger craze with Burgers Never Say Die. Truly a fascinating character with a unique & fun origin story.
