In August 2013, our dreams became reality, and we were finally ready to bring the bold flavors and healthy ingredients of South Korea to Columbus, Ohio.

Inspired by the traditional Korean dish bibimbap, meaning mixed rice, we sought to blend time-honored Asian flavors with classic American favorites to create a dish everyone would love.

From the time we opened the doors to our first location, our fresh food and quality service caught on in our community and quickly spread like wildfire.

Since then, weve grown to dozens of locations across the nation while maintaining our commitment to bringing WELL BING to all the communities in which we set up shop.
