Just weeks after Toasted announced the closing of its Horizon West location, a new restaurant is slated to take its place.

Signs for Kingdom Sushi now are installed at 6506 Old Brick Road, Windermere, the Westside Shoppes spot formerly occupied by the fast-casual grilled cheese restaurant.

The Horizon West Kingdom Sushi will be the company's fifth location. The business opened its first location in 2019 in Orlando and expanded to Boca Raton, Jacksonville and Tampa.

According to its website, the restaurant offers all-you-can-eat sushi, and its menu includes sushi, sashimi and other Japanese dishes.

Toasted opened its Lakeside Village location in April 2018 but announced its closure Nov. 10.

“Unfortunately, the Windermere Toasted location has closed,” restaurant officials announced on social media. “We are thankful for all of our loyal customers and the time here. We will still be happy to serve you at our UCF or Winter Park location.”

Toasted is the latest of several Horizon West-area restaurants that have closed. Others include BurgerFi, Chick ‘n Cone, Loop Cafe, Persimmon Hollow Brewing Company, HUMBL and others.
