This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-established, award-winning Italian restaurant with over 40 years of history in East County San Diego. The business generates approximately $789,000 in annual gross revenue and operates as a fully turnkey, absentee-run operation with trained staff and established systems in place.

The restaurant has built a strong reputation within the community, supported by a 4.7-star rating across major platforms with over 1,000 reviews, along with local recognition including “Best Italian” and “Best Casual Dining” awards. This long-standing presence and loyal customer base provide consistent and reliable revenue.

The facility consists of approximately 2,160 sq ft with an efficient layout designed for high-volume operations. The space includes a fully equipped commercial kitchen, dining area, prep and storage areas, and upgraded restrooms. Recent improvements include fully renovated bathrooms, complete electrical rewiring, upgraded HVAC system, and modern camera and audio installations, allowing a new owner to operate without the need for major capital investment.

The business is supported by a full team, enabling absentee ownership and smooth day-to-day operations. All Furniture, Fixtures & Equipment (FF&E), estimated at approximately $90,000, are included in the sale, making this a true turnkey opportunity.

With strong existing performance, low fixed rent of $3,871/month, and a proven concept, the business offers significant upside potential through expanded catering, delivery, marketing, extended hours, and menu optimization.

Seller financing may be available for qualified buyers.

This is an ideal opportunity for an owner-operator or investor seeking a stable, reputable, and scalable restaurant operation.
