“Ring” in the Week with Tony Roma’s World-Famous Onion Loaf Celebration

Three Limited Time Flavors and Special Pricing Will Have Tony Roma’s Fans Crying for More

ORLANDO, Fla. – June 16, 2017 – Romacorp, parent company of Tony Roma’s®, celebrates National Onion Rings Day this week with its second annual Onion Loaf Flavor Extravaganza! The ringleader of make-you-cry-tears-of-joy flavor pays homage to their world-famous Onion Loaf by offering three limited-time bold flavors and dipping sauces in addition to the signature Onion Loaf served with Tony Roma’s Original™ BBQ sauce. From June 19 – 25, participating U.S. Tony Roma’s restaurants will offer these mouthwatering Onion Loaf flavors at just $5 for the first one, and $3 for each additional Onion Loaf.

“The only thing that’s as iconic as our world-famous Baby Back Ribs is our Onion Loaf – it’s one of those menu items that has been proven to stand the test of time,” said Jim Rogers, Chief Marketing Officer for Romacorp, Inc. “Here at Tony Roma’s, we love shaking things up, and when we introduced the Cajun Onion Loaf two years ago, our guests loved it and we were inspired to have a little fun with a few new flavor profiles. We sure aren’t loafing around this year!”

A staple on the menu for more than 40 years, the world-famous Onion Loaf is one of Tony Roma’s most craveable menu items. Tony Roma’s Onion Loaf is made from giant Spanish onions that are hand cut and breaded in the restaurant throughout the day for fresh flavor that will make you want to ‘put a ring on it’. During the celebration week, fans can enjoy the Original Onion Loaf and try three exciting new flavors including Ranch, Honey BBQ, and Cajun. At a price this special, try all four!

“Our Onion Loaf is one of our most iconic dishes at Tony Roma’s, and it’s always fun to introduce our fans to new takes on a classic,” said Chef Bob Gallagher, Senior Vice President of Food and Beverage for Romacorp, Inc. “We have never altered the original recipe, so it’s fun to experiment with innovative flavor combinations that pack a punch – the Honey BBQ Onion Loaf is probably my favorite.”
