Business Description
For sale is Hime Sushi Bar and Grill, a beloved culinary hotspot serving the community for over 20 years. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a turnkey, legacy restaurant with a proven track record, a loyal customer base, and high-end assets that are ready for immediate capitalization. Famous for its incredibly fresh sushi, Korean-Japanese fusion cuisine, and vibrant atmosphere, this business offers a stable cash-flowing foundation with "blue sky" growth potential that is virtually limitless for the right operator.

History & Community Roots
Founded 25 years ago, Hime Sushi Bar and Grill began with a vision of bringing authentic, high-quality Asian cuisine to an underserved market. Through the unwavering support of loyal customers, it has grown into a local institution. The restaurant's longevity is a testament to its quality; we have served generations of families, hosted countless birthdays, and become the "go-to" spot for celebrations.

Strategically located in close proximity to major local hospitals, the restaurant benefits from a built-in lunch and dinner crowd of medical professionals and hospital visitors. This location has made us a premier choice for corporate lunches, departmental events, and large catering orders, providing a steady stream of daytime revenue to complement our busy dinner service.

Facilities & Assets: A Turnkey Showpiece
The facility is fully built out with distinct features that set it apart from any competitions. The centerpiece of the dining room is a stunning, custom built boat-shaped sushi bar, offering guests a unique visual experience. The space also features a separate full bar area with comfortable stool seating, perfect for casual dining and alcohol service (Full Liquor License included). The layout includes a dedicated area for live music, allowing the new owner to host weekend entertainment that keeps customers staying longer and engaged.

A private room is available for parties, corporate meetings, and special events - a high margin asset that is currently in high demand near the hospital medical landscape nearby.

Behind the scenes, the business is powered by a fully equipped commercial kitchen capable of high-volume activity. Assets include extensive commercial refrigeration, a recently installed air conditioning unit, and a comprehensive Texas Alarm System. Our website is also professionally built and managed by Square Space along with a Facebook page that has increased to thousands of followers.

The "Sleeping Giant" Asset: The facility includes six fully equipped Teppanyaki stations that are currently underutilized. These stations are fully hooded representing thousands of dollars in equipment that the new owner will have access to.

Menu & Operations
Hime Sushi offers an exceptional menu blending the best of Japanese and Korea flavors. We are renowned for our selection of over 100 sushi rolls, featuring incredibly fresh fish and creative combinations that keep customers coming back. Our kitchen is staffed by a vibrant team of experienced servers and culinary professionals who understand the high standards our customers expect.

In addition to dine-in services, the restaurant has a robust "To-Go" and pickup business, which has become a significant revenue system. Our systems are optimized to handle both busy Friday nigh dinner rushes and steady takeout orders immediately.

This is a unique chance to buy a piece of local history with the potential growth that is unmatched in this market. Check out our Facebook page to see our community engagement and visit our website to view the extensive menu.

Market Outlook / Competition
Hime Sushi Bar and Grill is established as a true local staple with a dedicated, recurring customer base. The business holds a commanding position in the local market due to a scarcity of high-quality Asian cuisine in the immediate vicinity. With few comparable dining options nearby, residents typically must travel outside the area to find similar offerings. This lack of direct competition allows the restaurant to dominate the local trade area and maintain consistent year-round volume from loyal patrons.
Opportunities for Growth
This business is primed for massive growth. The restaurant is equipped with six Teppanyaki grills with full vents that are currently underutilized. There is a high demand for this dining experience in the area. A buyer with the ability to implement a Teppanyaki program can immediately capitalize on this "sleeping asset". By simply staffing and opening these stations, a new owner can transform the revenue model, substantially increasing daily sales and driving the business toward million-dollar annual performance.
