Some restaurants chase trends. Lee Maen builds brands that shape them. As co-founder of Innovative Dining Group, Lee has redefined what it means to create restaurants that are as memorable for their vibe as they are for their food. From Sushi Roku to BOA Steakhouse, he’s turned hospitality into a high-performance art form—blending ambiance, precision, and consistency across markets and decades. In this episode, we dive into how IDG builds loyalty without relying on celebrity chefs, maintains profit without sacrificing soul, and scales without losing what made it special in the first place.
