Established Poké & Boba Shop— Turnkey, Great Neighborhood

Business Overview:

Established Poké & Boba Shop— Turnkey, Great Neighborhood

The Concept
A fast-casual poké bowl and boba tea restaurant operating in one of Los Angeles County's most established consumer markets. The menu pairs customizable poke bowls with a full boba and specialty beverage program — a combination that captures both the health-forward lunch daypart and the high-margin afternoon beverage occasion.

The Location
Situated in Pasadena, a dense and consistently active trade area. Pasadena ranks among the largest commercial establishment clusters in the San Gabriel Valley, with more than 3,400 businesses in the 91101 corridor alone — a built-in daytime population that drives fast-casual lunch traffic. The location offers strong visibility and convenient ingress/egress for both dine-in and takeout customers.

The Opportunity
This is a turnkey entry into a growing segment. U.S. limited-service restaurant sales are forecast to grow at a 5.6% compounded annual rate from 2026 to 2030 — roughly 1.33x the growth of the overall economy. For an owner-operator, the current footprint is deliberately lean: one employee plus a working owner, which means low fixed payroll and maximum control over food cost and labor — the two variables industry experts identify as the make-or-break drivers of restaurant profitability.
Growth Upside for the Right Operator
Catering: The office-dense surrounding area supports a direct-to-business catering and group-order channel not yet developed.
Beverage expansion: The existing boba and specialty drink program has significant runway — beverage is the highest-margin category in fast casual, and the category is currently under-indexed relative to food revenue.
Daypart extension: Currently driven primarily by lunch and afternoon traffic; dinner and weekend volume are largely untapped.

Ideal Buyer
An owner-operator who wants to work the floor, control their own P&L, and grow a lean operation. Restaurant experience preferred; a retail or food-service management background translates well. Previous owner ran restaurant semi-absentee as part of portfolio of restaurants.

Financial Note
Revenue is running at approximately $24,000–$25,000 per month, annualized at approximately $300,000. Additional financial information will be provided to qualified buyers following execution of a confidentiality agreement. Seller will consider all reasonable offers and is open to discussing deal structure, including terms, with a qualified buyer
