Reno Rejoices as Tofu House Reopens After Pandemic Hiatus
We all know the power of a good meal, and sometimes, a particular dish can evoke strong memories and a sense of community. Such is the case with Tofu House, a beloved Korean restaurant that recently returned to Reno after a four-year absence.

A Passionate Chef, a Devoted Community
Chef Osu Kwon, a familiar name in Reno’s culinary scene, established Tofu House in 2017. The restaurant quickly gained a loyal following for its authentic Korean fare, featuring favorites like bibimbap, spicy tofu soup, and Korean fried chicken. But the pandemic forced Kwon to make a difficult decision – close his doors to prioritize his family.

A Community Craving Comes True
The closure of Tofu House left a void in Reno’s culinary landscape. However, the community’s love for the restaurant didn’t fade. Chef Kwon was flooded with questions and requests about a potential reopening. This unwavering support fueled his passion, and in July 2024, Tofu House triumphantly returned to Reno at the Damonte Ranch Town Center.

A New Chapter with Optimism
The restaurant’s comeback has been met with overwhelming enthusiasm from loyal patrons. The initial rush brought back memories of Kwon’s bustling restaurants, but he’s confident in his team’s ability to navigate the challenges and provide a smooth dining experience.

Double the Deliciousness: Poke N Go joins the Party
To diversify his offerings and cater to different preferences, Chef Kwon has opened Poke N Go right next door to Tofu House. Poke N Go specializes in poke rice bowls, a popular summer dish. This strategic move allows Kwon to cater to a broader audience throughout the year – warm, comforting Korean dishes in the winter and refreshing poke bowls in the summer.

The Future is Bright for Tofu House
Tofu House is poised for continued success with a renewed focus, a supportive community, and a smart business strategy. If you’re in Reno and craving authentic Korean cuisine, head to Damonte Ranch Town Center and experience the magic of Tofu House for yourself!
