The new locations are slated for California, Las Vegas, Puerto Rico and China, involving four existing franchisees and one new one.

The franchisees include Salt Lake City-based Sizzling Platter, which is planning to build its 22nd Sizzler restaurant in Boise, ID, for its first new Sizzler in 12 years.
