Mang Inasal, the Philippines' Grill Expert, is known to customers as the brand that delightfully serves Ihaw-Sarap food and Unli-Saya experience for the past 20 years.

The company was started by Edgar "Injap" Sia II, who owned his first business at the age of twenty. Sia engaged in the food business at twenty-six years of age, opening the first Mang Inasal branch in December 2003 at the Robinsons Mall Carpark in Iloilo City. The restaurant was an instant success, despite stiff competition from other established grilled-food restaurants.

The chain opened its first branches within the Visayan region, then expanded to neighboring Mindanao to the south before spreading to Metro Manila. The company started franchising in 2005. By 2008, Mang Inasal had opened 23 restaurants, with ten being franchised. In 2009, Mang Inasal expanded to over a hundred branches.

In October 2010, 70% of Mang Inasal was acquired by Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC), for 3 billion ($68.8 million). In April 2016, JFC (Jollibee Food Corporation) acquired the remaining 30% previously belonging to Injap Investment owned by Inasal's founder.[
