History

Marshawn Lynch, Jun Park, and Kevin Yamada originally planned to open a Hawaiian restaurant at Hotel Vance called Beast, with recipes by Lynch's Filipino grandmother. However, the proposed name conflicted with Naomi Pomeroy's restaurant of the same name. [2] [3] The name 'Beast by Marshawn Lynch & Kama’aina' was changed to 'Beastro'. [4]
