Yumbi! For Sale: Atlanta’s Food Truck Pioneer Lists All Locations

If you’ve lived in Atlanta for the last decade, you’ve likely stood in a long line for sesame fries and Yumbi!-style wings. Back in 2012, Yumbi! didn't just join the food scene; they created a movement as the Southeast’s first food truck to blend Korean and Mexican flavors.

But as we kick off 2026, the local dining landscape is shifting again. I’ve been tracking the latest listings, and it’s official: Yumbii is putting its entire operation—all three restaurant locations, the famous food truck, and the catering business—up for sale.

The $600,000 "Turnkey" Opportunity

This isn't just about tacos; it’s a massive real estate and business play. The owners have listed the entire bundled business for $600,000, though they are also entertaining offers for the locations individually at $200,000 each.

Here is what’s on the table according to the latest FMLS and broker data:

• Midtown Promenade (931 Monroe Drive): A 2,842 sq. ft. corner unit built out in 2023. It’s literally steps from the Atlanta BeltLine Eastside Trail.

• Toco Hills (2907 N Druid Hills Rd): A 2,270 sq. ft. spot built in 2020, plus a separate 1,040 sq. ft. catering commissary added in 2022.

• Upper Westside (2275 Marietta Blvd): A 2,900 sq. ft. corner unit in the Publix-anchored Moores Mill center with a 10-year lease running through 2032.

The Catch: What Happens to the Brand?

Interestingly, these are being marketed as asset-only sales. This means if you buy an individual location, you aren't necessarily buying the Yumbii name or recipes—you’re buying the prime real estate, the high-end kitchen equipment, and the leases. The Yumbii brand and recipes are only included if you purchase all three units as a package.

For us as residents, this means we could be seeing brand-new concepts popping up in these iconic spots very soon—or a new owner could take the Yumbii torch and run with it.

My Take: The High Cost of Staying Local

We’ve seen a lot of legacy spots struggling with rising costs lately. Seeing a pioneer like Yumbii move on is a reminder that the "2026 version" of Atlanta’s dining scene is evolving fast. For an entrepreneur, buying a "mint condition" build-out for $200k is often cheaper than starting from scratch in this market.
