Tony Roma’s Myanmar has opened its second restaurant in the fast-developing country.

The first Tony Roma’s there opened earlier this year, and the response from the local consumer to the brand’s signature food and beverages has been tremendous, says Stephen Judge, president and CEO of Romacorp, Inc, Tony Roma’s parent.

The second restaurant, like the first, is located in Yangon, the largest city in Myanmar, on Strand Square off Strand Rd, an epicenter of the city.

“Our franchise partner, Apex Food and Beverage, knows the local market well, and we are excited to work with them to extend the reach of the Tony Roma’s brand in Myanmar and bring our world famous ribs to fans throughout Yangon,” said Judge.

The restaurant is 457 sqm with 198 seats. The building is two stories and also includes covered outdoor seating. This location is situated near Sule Pagoda and Maha Bandoola Garden, two important landmarks in the Myanmar culture.

“We opened our first Tony Roma’s in Myanmar to much success in January, and the delicious ribs and friendly atmosphere have been very popular, which is why we’re excited to open this second location,” said Kyaw Soe Win, Apex MD.

Headquartered in Orlando, Florida, Romacorp has more than 150 restaurants in more than 30 countries.
