Kitchen United was an American ghost kitchen company based in Pasadena, California,[3] providing equipped professional kitchen space to restaurants for the preparation of delivery-only meals.[4] The company was acquired by SBE Entertainment Group in 2023.
It allowed brick-and-mortar restaurants to expand their food delivery business without adding extra staff or space and allows the creation of restaurants with no dine-in service.[5] In addition to commercial kitchen space, it provides back of house automation and ordering software that accommodates the main delivery services (DoorDash, GrubHub, Uber Eats, etc.).[6][7]
