Guaca Go opens in Royal Palm Beach ahead of National Guacamole Day grand opening

Guaca Go has opened its newest restaurant in Royal Palm Beach, with a grand opening and ribbon cutting planned for Sept. 16, National Guacamole Day. The second location for local franchise owners Fab Nunez and Jessie Sequeira expands the Palm Beach County brand west into Royal Palm Beach and Wellington.

Why it matters: - Guaca Go is pushing farther west in Palm Beach County, giving Royal Palm Beach, Wellington and nearby communities another fast-casual option centered on made-to-order guacamole and customizable bowls. - The opening adds momentum for franchise owners Fab Nunez and Jessie Sequeira, whose second Guaca Go location helps deepen the brand’s footprint in the county. - Community tie-ins around the launch include local donations and discounts for frontline workers, teachers, students and families.

What happened: - Guaca Go opened in Royal Palm Beach and began welcoming guests before its official grand opening. - The grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony are set for noon on Wednesday, Sept. 16, National Guacamole Day. - Fab Nunez and Jessie Sequeira operate the restaurant and also own Guaca Go Tequesta. - The Royal Palm Beach site is Guaca Go’s fourth restaurant in Palm Beach County. - The location is at 10101 Southern Boulevard, Unit 190, Royal Palm Beach, FL 33411. - The restaurant is open daily from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The details: - The Royal Palm Beach restaurant serves the full Guaca Go Florida Fresh-Mex menu, including bowls, burritos, salads and Build-Your-Own options. - Menu items are made with clean, gluten-free, vegan-friendly and seed-oil-free ingredients. - Guaca Go’s guacamole is mashed fresh to order in front of guests. - Grand Opening Day on Sept. 16 includes $5 bowls from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. - Giveback Day on Sept. 17 will donate $1 from every bowl, burrito or salad to Roots and Wings. - Roots and Wings provides free literacy instruction to more than 1,600 students in 24 Title I elementary schools across Palm Beach County. - Community Appreciation Day on Sept. 18 gives first responders, nurses, teachers and students 50% off in-store all day. - Guaca Go’s online home is guacago.com, and the brand is on Instagram at @guacago.

Between the lines: - The Royal Palm Beach opening shows how the brand is using local franchise partners to grow beyond its original South Florida base. - National Guacamole Day gives the company a built-in marketing hook for a launch focused on guacamole as the centerpiece of the menu. - The giveback and appreciation promotions position the restaurant as a neighborhood player, not just another chain opening. - Co-founder Carson Bennett framed the expansion as proof that the right franchise partners can turn the brand’s concept into a repeatable local success.

What’s next: - Guaca Go will lean on opening-week promotions to drive early traffic and introduce the new restaurant to western Palm Beach County. - The brand is likely to keep using community events and local partnerships as it grows its countywide presence. - Guaca Go continues to operate locations in West Palm Beach, Delray Beach, Tequesta and Royal Palm Beach.

The bottom line: - Guaca Go is turning a National Guacamole Day celebration into a broader expansion play, using local ownership and community offers to build another foothold in Palm Beach County.
