— A Korean-inspired restaurant will be closing its doors later this month.

Kimbap opened five years ago at 111 Seaboard Ave. in Raleigh. Owner Kim Hunter announced via social media on Tuesday that the restaurant's last day of service will be June 16.

"We thank you allowing us to feed you and get to know you over the past five years. Thank you for being with us. Embracing us in the neighborhood and being a part of our lives," Hunter wrote. "Thank you to all the chefs, restaurants, culinary and service professionals who welcomed me to the restaurant scene with open arms, kindness and guidance, it means so much. And the amazing farmers and vendors who work tirelessly to bring us beautiful ingredients."

Hunter also expressed gratitude to the staff.

"I hardly have the words. You have embraced our customers as though they are family. You have built this community. You have fed and nourished our guests. You have been with me through good and bad times," she wrote.
