The new menu encapsulates the brand’s evolution from a primarily Asian-focused, create-your-own-bowl concept to an all-around, go-to fast-casual restaurant for all types of bowls. The lineup shifts the focus away from strictly customization to more chef-prepared menu items, including the new VALUEBOWLS lineup, consisting of six fresh, quick bowls all under $8, 12 new Chef Bowls and four new ready-to-order bowls utilizing the brand’s world-famous Fried Rice. World-renowned chef Robert Kabakoff, a frequent collaborator with Genghis Grill’s sister-brands, was instrumental in the development of the new menu, partnering with Vice President of Culinary Becca McIntyre to craft 18 new menu items. Of course, fans will still have the option to create their own bowls from over 80 of the freshest ingredients available, including fresh-chopped vegetables, chef-curated sauces, premium proteins, and signature spices.
“Genghis Grill has evolved and has been slowly moving to a more culinary-driven experience that focuses on quality ingredients and brings convenience to our guests. We’re changing the perception that we’re just an Asian stir-fry concept with the introduction of the new genre-bending bowls that stretch the customer’s perception of what Genghis can be, while re-introducing existing guests to our brand and appealing to new segments at the same time,” says Genghis Grill CEO Gregg Majewski.
The new menu not only transforms Genghis Grill’s culinary capabilities serving refreshed healthy and tasty menu items, but also showcases the tremendous value to its restaurant owners and customers.
