Legacy Hospitality Investment Opportunity
Business Description
Macarios Grill offers a rare opportunity to acquire an established turnkey restaurant, full-service bar, and private-event venue in Indio, California. The business has more than 40 years of local history and operates from an approximately 5,000-square-foot facility with capacity for approximately 192 guests.
The restaurant generates approximately $900,000 in annual gross sales and features multiple dining areas, a full-service bar, banquet and private-event space, outdoor patio seating, and existing commercial kitchen infrastructure. The versatile layout supports traditional dining as well as private parties, corporate gatherings, catering, holiday events, sports-viewing promotions, and entertainment.
The $327,000 asking price includes the Macarios Grill name and goodwill, recipes, seller-owned furniture and equipment, and a California Type 47 liquor license, subject to ABC approval. Seller-owned assets include nine full booths with tables, a steam table, beer refrigerator, tall slim freezer, ice maker, and additional furniture, fixtures, equipment, and smallwares identified in the final asset inventory. Built-in kitchen equipment and leasehold improvements remain part of the leased premises.
The monthly rent is $12,700, with two additional five-year lease options remaining, subject to landlord approval. Experienced employees are currently in place, and the seller will provide reasonable training and transition support.
Growth opportunities include expanded private events, catering, banquet packages, bar promotions, online ordering, local hotel and business partnerships, and fuller use of the facility’s dining, event, bar, and patio areas.
After a long restaurant career—including many years in management and approximately 20 years as an owner—the seller is ready to pursue other opportunities.
Confidentiality Notice: Detailed financial records, lease documents, employee information, recipes, vendor details, and license information will be provided to qualified buyers after signing a confidentiality agreement. Please do not contact employees, customers, vendors, or the landlord directly.

Confidentiality: Detailed information will be provided to qualified buyers after signing a confidentiality agreement. Please do not contact employees, customers, vendors, or the landlord directly. - Market Outlook / Competition
- Macarios Grill is located in Indio, the largest city in the Coachella Valley and a growing center for dining, entertainment, tourism, and community events. Indio has a population of approximately 94,000 and attracts nearly 1.4 million annual visitors through internationally recognized festivals and regional events. Continued investment in Downtown Indio and the Highway 111 Corridor supports additional commercial and hospitality growth.
The market includes independent restaurants, national chains, sports bars, resort and casino dining, and private-event venues. Macarios Grill distinguishes itself through its 40-plus-year brand history, approximately 5,000-square-foot facility, 192-person capacity, full-service bar, Type 47 liquor license, patio, and private-event capabilities. These features provide multiple potential revenue streams and create a competitive advantage over smaller or single-purpose restaurant concepts. - Opportunities for Growth
- Macarios Grill offers several opportunities for a new owner to expand revenue and improve utilization of the approximately 5,000-square-foot facility.
The restaurant’s size, 192-person capacity, full-service bar, private-event areas, patio, and Type 47 liquor license allow the business to generate income from more than traditional dining alone.
The business offers strong potential to increase revenue through private events, catering, banquet packages, bar promotions, online ordering, and partnerships with nearby hotels, businesses, and community organizations.
The current location is more than double the size of the previous restaurant, giving new ownership the physical capacity to develop events, without relocating or undertaking a major new build-out.
