KPOT Korean BBQ and Hot Pot launched in 2018 when four friends under Vertex Hospitality opened an all-you-can-eat concept combining tableside Korean barbecue grills with simmering Asian hot pot broths, first proving the model in East Brunswick, New Jersey before expanding rapidly across the United States. Headquarters is recorded at 13111 Fowler Ave, Suite 1D, in Flushing, New York. KPOT Korean BBQ and Hot Pot is the concept, and the company operates as its franchisor for the interactive casual dining format where guests cook meats and broths at the table with tablet ordering and a sauce bar. Vertex Hospitality Group is its parent company. The experience emphasizes communal dining, large footprints and a broad protein and broth selection spanning Korean, Japanese, Thai and Szechuan flavors. Locations operate across a broad national U.S. footprint. Restaurants are casual/family and serve lunch and dinner with an Asian menu. Typical units seat about 200 guests in roughly 5,000 square feet, reflecting a large full-service dining room built for groups.

The Restaurant Enterprise Index focuses primarily on companies with a substantial role in restaurant operations. Investment firms, financial sponsors, and other ownership partners are generally not included unless they also play a meaningful operating role; an otherwise qualifying entity may also be omitted when sufficient reliable information is unavailable.
The ownership hierarchy follows the entity structure from the bottom up, showing the profiled entity in relation to its parent organizations, including its ultimate parent. When the entity owns or operates concepts beneath it, up to three are displayed.
