Samgyupsalamat was founded in 2012. Originally, the restaurant operated as an
à la carte dining establishment. In 2017, the management changed the business model to offer unlimited meat options. Following this change, the chain began to expand significantly in 2018. By 2018, the company had established over 20 company-owned branches in
Metro Manila. In August 2019, the chain opened a branch in
Bonifacio Global City that operated 24 hours a day. On December 18, 2025, Samgyupsalamat opened its 98th branch at
SM City Cebu. This location introduced a new concept that included "Bimbim bowls" and takeout options. == Operations ==
