## Story

Zaza Cuban Comfort Food announced it plans to open a new location at The Loop shopping center at 3208 North John Young Parkway, Kissimmee, FL, in early 2027. This will be Zaza’s first location in Osceola County and its 13th overall.

According to Zaza Cuban Comfort Food CEO Luis Fernandez, the new location is an important part of the chain’s expansion plans.

“Zaza sees Osceola County as an incredible opportunity because of the dynamic growth this part of Central Florida is experiencing,” said Fernandez. “We’re excited to bring Zaza’s unique Cuban heritage and flavors to The Loop Shopping Center and surrounding community.”

Zaza’s opened its newest operating location in Casselberry in July of last year. It recently announced new locations in SODO, Winter Park and the Orlando International Airport.

Zaza Cuban Comfort Food is a modern Cuban comfort diner known for fresh ingredients and traditional recipes. Cuban bread is baked fresh daily, meals are prepared to order, and the kitchens operate without microwaves to preserve quality and authenticity.

Coffee is also a central part of the Zaza experience. The company works closely with its coffee roast master, who travels to South America to source and hand select beans used to create Zaza’s signature coffee blends, which are then roasted in its local facility to produce the café con leche, cafecito, and specialty drinks served across all locations.

The Loop location in Osceola County is part of Zaza’s continued expansion across Central Florida as demand for its Cuban comfort cuisine and coffee program continues to grow. Additional details about The Loop opening will be announced soon.
