Korean is a quick-service concept inspired by Korean and Latin street food. Its “build your own” bowl and taco concept allows guests to create memorable, customized meals. The brand was originally founded in 2010 as a mobile vending concept and has since transitioned to brick-and-mortar restaurants. As of August 2022, TaKorean has continued to growwhiole also developing its fanchise and licensed operations. The TaKorean system is accessible to just about anyone. It requires no specialized equipment or training to consistently create a variety of delicious foods. Based on a limited inventory of readily available items, the TaKorean model lets guests create a large variety of customized meal options. Simply by switching slaws, or choosing a bowl instead of tacos, guests can enjoy diverse meals or consistently recreate their own favorite combination.

This allows team leaders and staff to give their full attention to maximizing food quality and engaging the guest to create a “memorable customer experience.
