Own one of Texas's highest-rated halal Chinese restaurants - profitable, running, and turnkey from day one.

Open books, up front: owner benefit has run ~$72,000 in the trailing year (operated semi-absentee) to ~$120,000–$134,000 in 2025, and has averaged ~$125,000/yr across our ownership - we list a normalized ~$95,000 and share the complete, exact, verifiable financials with every serious buyer in diligence.

A new operator would spend roughly 2X+ $$$ and 6–12 months to build this restaurant from scratch. It's already built, permitted, running, and profitable - offered at $199,110.

-Revenue $552,503 (2025) - nearly doubled since 2023, tax-verified · ~$450K/yr reconciles to Clover + delivery statements to the dollar
-One of Texas's highest-rated halal Chinese · 4.6★ · Top 10 Houston Halal 2024 · Zabihah-listed

What $199,999 buys you (replacement / recreate cost):

*Turnkey permitted halal build-out - commercial hood, grease trap, gas, plumbing, dining fit-out
*Furniture, fixtures & equipment - 12' vent hood, tandoori oven, walk-in refrigeration & freezers, 6-burner range, ~55-seat dining room, buffet station

*Brand, standardized recipes, viral "Crispy Beef," catering book, trained team + training, assignable ~6.5-yr below-market lease … included

~~~You acquire more in built assets and owned technology than the asking price - the profitable, running, reputable operation comes on top.~~~

Why it's real, and verifiable. Under current ownership, revenue nearly doubled from $278,430 (prior operator's filed 2023 return, ~breakeven) to $552,503 (2025) - both verifiable. Roughly $450,000/yr of card + delivery revenue reconciles line-for-line to Clover and Uber/DoorDash/Grubhub statements.

A category of one, with an unusually diverse crowd. A standout Chinese kitchen first (the viral Crispy Beef), and the only all-halal spot also serving Indian AND Pakistani in fast-growing NW Houston. That breadth pulls a genuinely mixed base — families, large groups, and big-ticket party orders across cultures — a rare, sticky draw. Even a buyer indifferent to halal inherits a strong, established Chinese restaurant.

The current softness is unrealized upside, not decline. The base runs profitably semi-absentee; the owners simply never pursued the levers below. You buy the base AND the documented path back to the ceiling, with technology built-in to guide you along the way:

-Build corporate + recurring catering & private/large-party events - the big-group, big-ticket crowd is already here; only one-off caterings have been booked
-Extend evening hours
-Add a liquor / beer-wine license - a margin lever never added here
-Shift 3rd-party delivery to the built-in first-party ordering system
-Restart the on-site lunch buffet (no new capex) · run local neighborhood marketing (never done) · and more in diligence

Earning day one, not a year of burn. The halal build-out, hood, and grease trap are permitted and inspected — you take orders this week instead of spending $250K–$350K and 6–12 months first.

An automation moat. The technology is owned outright and license-free - the AI phone agent never misses a call; the first-party ordering + rewards CRM reclaims delivery commissions; the dashboard and self-running SEO keep intelligence and discovery going without you.

Why it's available. The owners are technologists redeploying time and capital into faster-growing software/IT ventures - they'd rather reinvest there than run this hands-on, so it's priced to transition quickly to the right operator at asset value, not a maximum multiple. Opportunity!!
