Turning Zaza’s Passion into Architectural Reality, A New Era in Cuban Dining
Zaza Cuban Comfort Food, a local Orlando brand founded by longtime friends Ruben Perez and Bob Coyne, was built on a deep friendship and a shared love for Cuban culture. As their brand expanded, they needed a reliable partner who could handle every aspect of their projects—from full Interior Design services to assist in refreshing the brand, to providing complete architecture, engineering, permitting, and construction management services, allowing them to focus on growing their business. Zaza was looking to bring a fresh new modernized look to their established local brand as they prepared for brand expansion and needed to update their existing locations. That’s where Interplan stepped in and was able to provide a single source to support all aspects of their design and development project needs.
Our lead architect designed Zaza’s restaurant prototype, ensuring a modern Cuban aesthetic without the typical clichés. From challenging airport locations to custom finishes, we handled every detail ensuring each space was a fresh, vibrant reflection of their brand. While working closely with Zaza, we tailored our services to meet their needs and ensure their satisfaction, including real-time drafting of various floor plan layout options during the initial planning stages to better visualize their new restaurant spaces.
Our flexible approach and deep collaboration fostered a relationship built on trust, innovation, and a shared passion for creating spaces that enrich the community.


“Getting the right partner to help build a brand is so crucial, and we were so happy to find that partnership in Interplan. That was a blessing.”
