$ 895,000
CF : $ 205,190
This well-established family operated Costa Mesa area 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 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.
