Chi'Lantro is an Austin-based food and beverage services company that operates as a restaurant, a mobile food truck, and a full-service catering operation. It specializes in Korean barbecue-inspired cuisine, and its name reflects a blending of kimchi and cilantro. The business was founded in 2010 by Jae Kim, starting as a food truck with a single employee, and it has since grown to ten physical locations in the Austin area, along with a downtown trailer and a dedicated catering arm. In the broader Food and Beverage Services industry, Chi'Lantro serves urban diners and catering clients through its multi-format model. A May 2026 development noted the closure of its Austin Burnet Road location and Minneapolis offices, while the company has previously expanded with openings such as a San Marcos location in 2024 and a Houston location in 2023.
