Business Description

A rare opportunity to own a casual fine dining restaurant in the heart of Washington, DC. This 2,800 sq. ft. restaurant has seating for 85 guests, plus outdoor seating, and is situated next to a major metro station with excellent visibility and foot traffic.

Currently operating as an Indian restaurant with excellent reviews, the space is versatile and can be converted to Italian, Mexican, Thai, or another cuisine. With a 13-year lease in place, a long operating history of 7 years, and a loyal customer base, this is a dream opportunity for a new chef-owner who wants to bring their concept to life in one of DC’s most desirable neighborhoods.

The business is fully staffed with 9 employees, who are expected to remain after the sale.
