Founder and Chef Sindey Robers founded the restaurant in 2009 as a food truck, which later became a restaurant in 2014 on Rainey Street. In 2020, their lease expired, but they were given an extension to operate. However, they eventually left a year later, and in 2022, they announced they would open a new location in Blackland at 2207 Alamo Street. A definitive opening date was not announced.
