Legacy Red Fox brand
Established in 1959, the Red Fox Steakhouse & Piano Bar has been a San Diego staple for more than six decades, celebrated for classic steaks, cocktails, and nightly live piano.?

The brand is synonymous with timeless ambiance, red leather booths, and an intimate supper-club feel that has attracted generations of loyal guests and special-occasion diners.?

Historic ambiance and story
The restaurant’s character is rooted in Tudor-style wood paneling, leaded glass, and a hand-carved bar and fireplace originating from a 16th?century inn in Surrey, England, later installed in a California mansion before becoming the heart of the Red Fox.?

This rich backstory has made the Red Fox one of San Diego’s most talked?about “time capsule” dining rooms, frequently highlighted as a must?visit for lovers of vintage design and classic steakhouses.?

Modern building and near-new equipment
The current freestanding building was newly constructed and finished around 2022, offering approximately 3,000 square feet of well-planned dining, bar, and back-of-house space in a high-visibility central San Diego location.?

The kitchen package, bar infrastructure, and support areas were recently installed and remain in near-new condition, allowing a new owner to minimize upfront CapEx and move quickly toward reopening and revenue generation.?

A turnkey piece of foodie history
This sale includes the intellectual property associated with the Red Fox name and concept (subject to seller terms), select décor and restaurant assets, and the real estate itself, creating an unusually cohesive going?concern opportunity.?

For an operator seeking a flagship, this is a chance to steward a cherished piece of San Diego’s culinary heritage while tailoring the menu, programming, and operations to today’s dining trends.?

Ideal buyer profile
Perfect for experienced restaurant groups, chef?owners, or hospitality investors looking for a distinctive, story?rich property that already enjoys deep brand recognition and multi?generational goodwill in the community.?

Equally attractive as a long?term hold for an owner?user or investor who values strong identity, architectural character, and the marketing power of an authentic local legend.?
