Business Description

This well-established franchise restaurant is part of one of the nation's leading fast-casual dining brands, recognized for serving high-quality, made-to-order cheesesteaks, loaded fries, and other freshly prepared menu items. The concept has built a loyal customer following by offering customizable meals made with premium ingredients, including USDA-choice steak, all-natural cheeses, and fresh, hand-cut vegetables. Supported by a proven franchise system, strong brand recognition, and comprehensive operational support, the business presents an attractive opportunity for both owner-operators and experienced multi-unit franchisees.
 
This Houston location occupies approximately 1,500 square feet of freestanding retail space and benefits from a highly visible position in a busy commercial corridor. Monthly base rent is approximately $7,187. The restaurant is strategically located in a densely populated and diverse trade area surrounded by major retailers, national quick-service brands, schools, local businesses, and established residential communities, generating consistent customer traffic throughout the day.
 
The business is fully staffed and managed by an experience manager and a trained team, allowing the owner to maintain a semi-absentee role of approximately 10 hours per week. For the twelve-month period from July 2025 through June 2026, the business generated gross sales of $562,404 and Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE) of $70,011.
 
The current owner acquired the business in 2025 to satisfy the investment requirements associated with an E-2 Investor Visa. Since then, the owner has obtained U.S. permanent resident status through another immigration pathway and no longer needs to maintain ownership of the business for visa purposes. As a result, the owner has decided to offer the business for sale at an attractive price of $139,000, representing an excellent value for a buyer seeking an established, turnkey franchise opportunity.
 
The fast-casual restaurant segment continues to be one of the fastest-growing sectors in the foodservice industry as consumers increasingly seek convenient, affordable, and high-quality dining experiences. This business is well positioned to capitalize on these industry trends through its recognized brand, streamlined franchise operating system, and established online ordering and delivery platforms. With the well-known brand and a loyal customer base, this turnkey operation offers immediate cash flow and significant potential for future growth under an engaged owner.
