ORLANDO, Fla. (PRWEB) January 15, 2018 -- Romacorp, Inc., the parent company of Tony Roma’s®, announces the opening of its newest restaurant, located in Viña Del Mar, the fourth largest city in Chile. The restaurant is owned and operated by Diego Blanch Lusson of Pandora Inversiones SPA, and is the third Tony Roma’s in Chile and 28th in Latin America. The restaurant is also the first Tony Roma’s location outside the USA to introduce key elements of Tony Roma’s new global prototype concept, transforming the restaurant environment, service approach and food and beverage offerings to meet the demands of today’s consumer. The new menu is highlighted by a renewed focus on rib innovation, a “Bones & Bites” small plates section where guests can customize their experience, and an enhanced beverage platform with modern cocktails and a broad selection of draft and bottled beer and wine.
“Latin America is one of the most important regions for Tony Roma’s future international growth, and with four additional locations planned for Latin America this year, 2018 will be one of our strongest growth periods in several years throughout the region,” said Bradley Scher, President and Chief Executive Officer of Romacorp, Inc. “We have strong franchisees in Latin America, and our success in the region is due to passionate franchisees, like Diego Blanch Lusson.
