Upscale Restaurant – South Charlotte / Ballantyne
Business Description
An upscale, second-generation full-service restaurant and wine bar in a high-traffic retail, dining and entertainment hub in one of South Charlotte's most affluent submarkets. The concept pairs a wine-forward menu with a design-forward dining room, full bar, and four distinct private event spaces.
The location is run day to day by an on-site general manager and executive chef. It sits within a large mixed-use retail and entertainment center anchored by national big-box and grocery retailers.
Opened in late 2024, the location completed its first full year of operations in 2025 with a net loss of roughly $510K and negative EBITDA of roughly $230K. The build-out represents roughly $4.0M in current replacement cost; the asking price reflects a substantial discount for the location's ramp-up stage.
Strengths: a second-generation build-out valued well above the asking price; a high-traffic retail and entertainment hub with national anchor tenants; proximity to a major suburban corporate park; and a long average visitor dwell time in the trade area.
Well suited for an operator experienced with new-location ramp-up and stabilization, looking to acquire a heavily built-out second-generation space in an affluent, high-barrier trade area well below replacement cost.
