Costa Mesa, California
Costa Mesa Area Mexican Restaurant & Bar – Established Customer Favorite!
$ 995,000
CF : $ 205,190
This well-established family operated Costa Mesa area Mexican restaurant and bar has been a customer favorite for over 5 decades and is being offered for the first time! The spacious venue, that has become a brand name to everyone in the area, boasts a remarkable long-standing anchor location in a major shopping center. The restaurant has several sections that not only allow for efficient operations but also provide a convenient way to section off areas for banquets, large parties or special events. The bar is similarly separated and could even operate as a stand-alone profit center. While there are no shortage of authentic Mexican restaurants throughout Southern California, this venue has been a perennial favorite for over 50 years, making it the incumbent and most established market leader. Its name brand, decades of goodwill, spacious parking lot shared in a center with high traffic anchor tenants, freeway accessibility and main street drive-by visibility all create the perfect storm of restaurant attributes that provide this venue an unmatched competitive advantage. This well-established venue has recently undergone a comprehensive remodel during the COVID induced slow-down. As a result, the venue has recovered and is surpassing its already impressive historical performance. Though it has been a family operated business, the operation may benefit from a full-time working owner-operator that has hospitality industry experience and is able to minimize expenses while bolstering the establishment’s already stellar revenues. The bar portion of the operation naturally enjoys the highest margins. This portion of the business may present the greatest opportunity for new management to quickly enhance profits even further.

Orange County, California
Food Court Restaurant with Full Kitchen – Korean Street Food or New Concept
$ 85,000
This listing is a Korean tteokbokki specialty restaurant located inside a food court in Orange County. The business is currently operated with a Korean street food concept focused on tteokbokki. One of the key advantages of this location is the food court setting, which offers abundant shared seating with no seating limitations. Store & Operating Information Business Hours: 11:30 a.m. – 8:00 p.m. (Open 7 days a week) Rent: $3,668 per month CAM Charge: $700 per month All utilities included (electricity, gas, water, etc.) Annual rent increase: 4% Lease terms: New lease required Security deposit: $6,000 Staffing Structure Employees: 4 part-time staff One employee handles food preparation and cooking in the kitchen, while the remaining staff take orders and assist with food preparation Total monthly labor cost: Approximately $3,500 Owner involvement: Full-time operation Sales & Profit Average monthly gross sales: Approximately $21,187 (2025 average) Monthly net income: Approximately $4,000 – $5,000 Reason for sale: Owner is focusing on another business Included Furniture, Fixtures & Equipment (FF&E) 1 ice machine 1 topping cooler Large hood system 14-burner gas stove 1 fryer Three 2-door refrigerators Two prep coolers One 2-door freezer One top-opening chest freezer Transaction Terms Asset Sale / As-Is Turnkey operation – ready to operate immediately Payment terms: Full cash only Key Highlights of the Business The restaurant is currently operated as a franchise Korean tteokbokki concept. If the buyer wishes to continue operating under the existing franchise brand, a separate transfer and approval fee must be paid to the franchisor. Alternatively, the buyer may choose not to take over the franchise and instead operate their own independent tteokbokki concept. In this case, the buyer can use their own menu and operate with Korean street food items such as tteokbokki, fish cake, and fried items. Additionally, as long as the menu does not overlap with other vendors within the food court, the buyer may convert the space to an entirely different food concept if desired. This is not a purchase of an established brand or strong existing revenue stream. Rather, it is an opportunity to acquire a fully built-out food court restaurant with complete kitchen infrastructure, allowing the buyer to bring in their own concept and begin operations immediately. While current sales are modest, the flexibility to maintain the franchise, rebrand with an independent concept, or convert to a completely new food concept makes this a strong upside opportunity for a buyer with creativity and a competitive menu strategy.
