A Korean restaurant chain with roots in New York City will be expanding to the local area, bringing at least three outlets to Eastern Massachusetts.
According to its website, KPOT is planning to open locations in Dedham, Malden, and Methuen, with the Dedham outlet opening at the Dedham Mall on Providence Highway, the Malden outlet opening in the former John Brewer's Tavern space on Highland Avenue, and the Methuen outlet opening at The Loop on Pleasant Valley Street. Based on the other locations, expect to see all-you-can-eat Korean hot pot and Korean BBQ at the upcoming restaurants.
KPOT first started out in the Flushing section of Queens in 2018; the website for the chain can be found at https://thekpot.com/
