This is the first of 10 locations planned for the area, as previously announced. Currently, there is only one location open in Florida – in the Tampa area.

Fatburger is owned by FAT (Fresh, Authentic, Tasty) Brands Inc., which owns other restaurant chains such as Johnny Rockets, Twin Peaks and Fazoli’s.

“We see great opportunity in bringing our other restaurants to the state such as Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express,” said FAT Brands CEO Andy Wiederhorn in a previous statement. “We look forward to opening our doors in Orlando and welcoming locals and tourists alike to experience our juicy, custom-built burgers.”
