America’s #1 buffet and grill opened its doors in Canóvanas, Puerto Rico on Oct. 26

October 30, 2020 // Franchising.com // CANÓVANAS, Puerto Rico - Golden Corral started serving its endless dining choices in Latin America for the first time when the iconic restaurant opened its doors in Canóvanas, Puerto Rico on Monday, Oct. 26!

“Opening in Latin America is a significant milestone for us, and it really demonstrates the broad appeal of Golden Corral,” said Lance Trenary, president and CEO of Golden Corral Corporation. “During these challenging times for the restaurant industry, it is exciting to support our new franchisee and his team as they expand the Golden Corral brand. We look forward to bringing our Golden Corral favorites to Puerto Rico, and we can’t wait to serve the Canóvanas community.”

The new restaurant, located at 18400 State Road #3, Ste. #122, is the brand’s latest design featuring a stone fireplace, contemporary décor, comfortable and varied seating options, as well as an all-new buffet area with an enhanced carvery and tiled walls that look much like a residential kitchen.

“We are very excited with the positive reception the Canóvanas community has shown us in the short time we have been open, and I can’t wait to continue to introduce Golden Corral’s wholesome food to Puerto Rico,” said Luis Albino. “Our acclaimed buffet that features more than 100 options is something entirely new to the Canóvanas community. On top of that, we’ve hired an incredible team of outgoing individuals to join us in serving Golden Corral’s unmatched variety to everyone in the area.”
