Here is an absentee-owned Yogi's Grill franchise in Surprise, one of the fastest-growing markets in the Phoenix metro — doing roughly $780,000 a year and cash-flowing $127,200 with the owner working none of it.
Yogi's Grill is an Arizona-grown Japanese fast-casual concept built around made-to-order teriyaki bowls, sushi rolls, yakisoba noodles and appetizers. A buyer steps into a proven menu, an established operating system and existing brand recognition rather than testing an independent concept or building a new franchise location from the ground up.
This store opened in 2025, so the build-out is essentially new — current equipment, current finishes, and no deferred capital expense waiting for the next owner. It occupies approximately 3,000 sq ft in a retail plaza in a trade area that continues to add rooftops and retail.
What makes this one work is the rent. At $8,500 per month it runs roughly 12% of sales, well under what most fast-casual restaurants carry, and it is locked through 2035 with an additional five-year option. That cost structure is a large part of why the store produces $127,200 in owner's cash flow on its current volume.
Two full-time and three part-time employees run the location. The seller takes no salary and works no hours in the business, so the cash flow shown is what an absentee owner collects. Approximately $100,000 in equipment and fixtures is included in the purchase price along with inventory.
Because it runs absentee today, a hands-on owner has clear room to grow — catering, expanded delivery, local marketing and community outreach are all available and none are being pursued.
Seller financing is available to qualified buyers: $200,000 down with the balance carried for three years at 7%. The seller will provide two weeks of training, and Yogi's Grill franchise approval and training are required for the incoming owner.
This is one of two Yogi's Grill locations currently available in premium West Valley markets. A buyer may purchase this location on its own or inquire about acquiring both.
NDA and Proof of Funds are required before confidential information is released.

- This business is an established franchise
- Facilities & Assets
- Approximately 3,000 sq. ft. of leased space in a retail plaza. Built out and opened in 2025, the restaurant is fully equipped for the Yogi's Grill concept with a complete commercial kitchen, hood system, prep and cold line, point-of-sale system, digital menu boards, beverage service and dining room seating. Approximately $100,000 in equipment and fixtures is included in the purchase price, along with inventory. No equipment is rented or leased. Lease runs through 2035 with an additional five-year option at $8,500 per month.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The restaurant serves the Surprise and West Valley market, one of the fastest-growing residential and commercial areas in the Phoenix metro, with continued rooftop and retail growth in the surrounding trade area. Yogi's Grill is an Arizona-grown Japanese fast-casual brand with existing name recognition across the metro, competing in the made-to-order teriyaki, sushi and noodle segment. The seller reports the business is not materially affected by seasonality, and no single customer accounts for 10% or more of sales.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The location is run absentee today, with no owner involvement in daily operations. A hands-on owner-operator has room to grow sales through catering, expanded third-party and in-house delivery, local marketing and community outreach — none of which is being actively pursued. Advertising and marketing spend does not appear on the current financials. Opened in 2025, the store is still early in building its customer base in a market that continues to add residents. This is one of two Yogi's Grill locations available in premium West Valley markets; a buyer may acquire this site individually or pursue both for added scale.
