Bosu Latin Asian Fusion is trading its pop-up life for a permanent home in the heart of downtown Kissimmee. The standalone spin-off of the Bosu Asian Fusion Bistro pop-up is moving into a street-level spot at 231 Broadway Ave, where co-owner Jose Martin says the team is aiming for a mid to late July debut. The new space is being designed around an open kitchen and bar, so guests can grab a seat and watch chefs roll sushi and work the hot line in full view. After years of operating inside other local restaurants, the concept is finally getting its own four walls and full-time schedule.
Co-owner Jose Martin told What Now that "We're looking to open in the middle or at the end of July" and that "this is the first one that will stand alone." The outlet reported the new location will be called Bosu Latin Asian Fusion and credited the restaurant's Instagram for photos of the concept.
From pop-up to storefront
The Bosu name has been best known as a pop-up sushi bar running inside Grillers Puerto Rico, where creative rolls, including mofongo-coated versions, picked up buzz, as detailed by FoodBeast. Grillers Puerto Rico's site lists locations on Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway in Kissimmee and Chickasaw Trail in Orlando, the same kitchens where Bosu previously appeared. State business records link the Bosu name to the Kissimmee address through the company SUSHI BOSU BY GRILLERS LLC, which also identifies Jose Martin in management roles.
What to expect
What Now reports that the menu at Bosu Latin Asian Fusion will pull from Puerto Rican, Japanese Peruvian and Chinese cuisines, with ceviche, fried rice and an emphasis on sushi rolls, plus a prep area designed to feel like a bit of a show. Martin told the outlet that the layout will include bar seating so guests can watch both the hot line and the sushi station, a setup the team used when operating as a pop-up. If the mid July target holds, the new restaurant will give Bosu a permanent stage for its hybrid dishes.
The move is also a clear investment in downtown Kissimmee's growing small restaurant scene. A standalone address means the team can set its own hours, manage reservations and host events, instead of working around another kitchen's calendar. For locals and visitors, that could translate into regular service rather than the limited pop-up nights that previously made catching Bosu feel like a special occasion.
