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.
