Profitable Japanese Restaurant In Houston- SBA Loa

Business Overview:

Up for sale is a revolving Japanese sushi bar. Established in April of 2009, this popular local favorite is in a major shopping center in Houston. The restaurant is known for its unique and simple concept of being a self-serve sushi bar with varieties of dishes on a conveyor belt for you to choose and a robotic server to bring your special orders to your table. Customers can look and easily pick up the dishes they want from the moving belt and/or order special dishes not on the belt delivered to the table by the robotic server. It has attracted many repeat customers from the nearby offices and residents in the community.

The professionally designed restaurant of 4,580 square feet offers an additional 1,000 sq ft that includes an outdoor patio. The seller spent upwards of $800K on leasehold improvements, furniture, fixtures, and equipment when it was first built.

The restaurant has been profitable since it was established in 2009. Even if its revenue and profit have been impacted by the road constructions in front of the restaurant since 2022, revenue for the year 2024 was still $1,100,055 with a Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE) of $220,361 and EBITDA of $155,361. The sales have started to increase after the constructions were completed at the end of February 2025.

The owner is selling to spend more time with family and enjoy traveling after years of dedication to the restaurant industry.

SBA loan is pre-approved. This is a rare opportunity to acquire one of the top grossing restaurants in the area at a low price.

Expanding the menu with new food and beverage options can drive additional revenue. To date, marketing efforts have been minimal - creating a major opportunity for growth through proactive strategies such as increased social media presence, direct mail campaigns, flyers, coupons, and daily specials.
