This is a rare opportunity to acquire a highly profitable and long-established Southern-style restaurant with a strong local following and a proven financial track record.

The business consistently generates over $1.4M in annual revenue, with owner discretionary earnings (SDE) averaging over $200K-$300k on average and up to $1.7M or more in revenue on average. It operates with strong systems, a loyal customer base, and minimal direct competition for its unique cuisine and dining experience.

The restaurant is open five days a week — closed Sundays and Mondays — offering immediate potential to increase revenue simply by expanding operating hours. Given the area's dining habits and limited competition on Sundays, opening that day alone could drive significant additional traffic and sales.

Takeout, delivery, and online ordering are not currently offered, which represents another significant growth opportunity. With modern consumer habits increasingly leaning toward convenience and mobile ordering, adding these services could unlock a major new revenue stream.

The restaurant also does not currently provide catering, operate a food truck, or have any second location — leaving the brand perfectly positioned for expansion, franchising, or replication in nearby towns or markets. The concept, menu, and brand recognition offer a strong foundation for multi-location growth.

The restaurant has very little social media presence or digital marketing — a low-cost, high-impact opportunity for a buyer to expand awareness and attract new customers. With even modest investment in local ads or social engagement, the business could capture additional market share.

The facility is fully built out with a complete commercial kitchen, dining area, and onsite parking. While the physical space and lot are currently maximized, they are used efficiently and support strong sales volume. The brand’s strength and operational model make it a candidate for scaling beyond the current location.

FF&E includes all equipment, furniture, POS systems, and decor. Inventory is included in the asking price and the building is owned by the seller and may be made available for purchase, or a lease arrangement can be negotiated. More details can be provided upon execution of a non-disclosure agreement (NDA).

The owner is retiring after many successful years in the business. With no successor in the family, they are seeking a motivated buyer to carry on the restaurant’s legacy and take it to the next level.

This business is SBA loan eligible, with financials supported by full tax returns and consistent performance. It’s ideal for an owner-operator or group seeking a turnkey opportunity with strong cash flow, deep community roots, and substantial room for growth.
