The ONE Group Hospitality Opens Ghost Kitchen in Austin

The ONE Group Hospitality, Inc. announced that starting today, residents and visitors of Austin, Texas can now enjoy delivery of select menu items from the Company’s award-winning dining concepts, Kona Grill and Bao Yum, through a previously-announced partnership with REEF Kitchens – the largest operator of virtual restaurants, logistics, and proximity hubs in North America.

“This is the first time The ONE Group is partnering with a ghost kitchen concept like REEF, so we’re excited to open in Austin to discover potential growth opportunities this partnership can unlock,” says Emanuel “Manny” Hilario, President and CEO of The ONE Group. “Customers can expect the same quality food they’d get in any of our restaurants, delivered to their doors quickly and efficiently. Our menus will be comprised of fan-favorite dishes like Kona Grill’s variety of sushi offerings and the KG Cheeseburger and Bao Boxes from Bao Yum – we’re looking forward to creating even more affinity for these brands in and around Austin,” continued Hilario.

The partnership will enable The ONE Group to further expand and capture a new customer base, while bringing the flavors of Kona Grill and Bao Yum to the Austin community. Austin locals can order from Kona Grill and Bao Yum Monday through Sunday from 12:30 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. CST via all major third-party delivery platforms, including DoorDash and Uber Eats.
