BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Discover an exceptional chance to own a thriving fast-casual dining concept specializing in South Indian cuisine, freshly made daily. This beloved establishment has earned a glowing reputation within the community, boasting numerous 4+ star reviews on Google, TripAdvisor, and Yelp. Customers rave not only about the flavorful dishes but also the warm hospitality and attentive service.

Famous for its homestyle South Indian flavors with a vegetarian twist, this eatery offers a diverse menu featuring crispy dosas, fragrant rice specialties, authentic curries, savory appetizers, and refreshing desserts—all which are vegetarian and vegan-friendly. Everything is crafted fresh to order, ensuring an unforgettable dining experience for locals and tourists alike.

Two Businesses in One:
This turnkey operation includes a fully equipped brick-and-mortar location and a custom-designed, mobile food truck. The food truck, wrapped in eye-catching graphics that match the restaurant’s branding, allows you to extend your reach by serving gourmet cuisine at events, catering gigs, or secondary locations. With the flexibility to prepare food at the restaurant and serve it anywhere on the island, this dual setup creates the opportunity to operate two complementary revenue streams under one concept.

What’s Included:

• A fully outfitted kitchen and dining space.
• A state-of-the-art food truck in excellent condition, ready for mobile operations.
• Proven recipes and rave social media presence.
• One month of owner training for a smooth transition.
• Immediate income potential without the hassle of building from scratch, securing permits, or sourcing equipment.

Prime Location:
The restaurant sits across from a bustling Target and one of the busiest shopping centers in West Hawaii, home to popular retailers like Petco, Old Navy, and Ross. This high-traffic location ensures a steady stream of customers year-round.

Seller Financing Available:
The seller offers partial financing for qualified buyers with a reasonable down payment. Terms may vary based on experience, creditworthiness, and commitment. Show your dedication, and the seller will work with you to share the risk and support your success.

Next Steps:
Serious buyers can sign an NDA to receive a complete asset list. Full transparency including detailed financials will be provided during due diligence after an accepted offer or in-person visit. We apologize in advance, but no exceptions will be made.

This is a rare opportunity to own a thriving, community-loved business with tremendous growth potential—all for a low upfront investment. Step into a successful operation and make it your own!

Facilities
This fully equipped, appr. 800 sq. ft. brick-and-mortar restaurant is strategically located in the heart of Kailua-Kona within a highly affordable & well-maintained food court. Shared with other diverse eateries offering non-overlapping cuisines, the food court provides easy entry & exit, ample free parking, & seating for over 50 guests for dine-in service. Additionally, the accompanying food truck, stored at the owner’s nearby residence and plugged into shore power when not in use, minimizes costs while staying ready for events & catering opportunities.
Competition
Competition for authentic Indian cuisine is minimal, making this business a standout. Within a 5-mile radius, there are no other authentic Indian restaurants, and this is the only establishment in Kona exclusively offering a 100% vegetarian and vegan menu.
Growth & Expansion
Substantial opportunities for growth: • Expand your online presence and leverage social media to engage a broader audience. • Instantly boost revenue by 15-20% by extending operations to include Mondays. • Partner with third-party delivery platforms like DoorDash and Uber Eats to capture additional sales. • Capitalize on high demand by expanding catering services, accommodating parties, and fulfilling special occasion orders, which the current owner cannot fully support due to limited staffing. • Hire addt'l staff to meet the ever growing demand.
Financing
Partial seller financing at the seller’s sole discretion
Support & Training
To ensure a smooth transition, the seller offers 30 days of hands-on training. This comprehensive program covers all aspects of business operations, including detailed policies and procedures, specialized menu preparation techniques, and introductions to established vendor relationships that have been integral to the business’s success.
Reason for Selling
Family moving back to India for children’s education.
