The popular locally owned and operated Chinese restaurant Rico Chino Asian Cuisine will soon be opening its second location in Central Florida, according to a recent filing with the State of Florida. The restaurant will be located at 1373 East Osceola Pkwy in Kissimmee, within the Gateway Station Shopping Center, next to Importado Osceola 3. 

Readers and partners can reliably expect Rico Chino 2 to serve Chinese restaurant staples such as Orange Chicken, Broccoli Beef, Shrimp Curry, among others. Given the restaurant’s uniquely Central Florida approach to fast casual dining, (defining their cuisine as Boricua-Chinese on their Facebook) they also serve fried chicken, wings, and Latin American offerings such as fried tostones. 

Until the new location of Rico Chino opens its doors, adventurous foodies can visit the original location at 6125 S Semoran Blvd, which is run by Chikai Ng, Yuanfan Zheng and Huihang Zhang.

What Now Orlando reached out to Co-Owner Chikai Ng to inquire about the restaurant’s unique background and potential opening dates, but he was not immediately available for comment.
