1What you're buying
Twelve years of Cuban cooking, $930K of revenue, asking $175K.
Dine-in, takeout, own delivery, own app, catering - an independent with channels most franchises would envy.
Management already on payroll.
A general manager and kitchen manager are employed - the single rarest feature in a restaurant at this price.
The seller states no profit figure at all.
The listing leads with revenue; earnings are our reconstruction: $167,400 to an owner-operator, $90,700 after pricing the owner's seat.
2Two ways to own it
The manager case prices the OWNER'S seat at $76,700 on top of the GM and kitchen manager already in the wage bill - oversight, not a phantom second GM.
Both ranges are our estimate, not the seller's figure. Each starts at its careful end.
3What the listing doesn't tell you
The restaurant has a name and a following.
We resolved the storefront, the review record, and the channel mix - subscribers get the name.
There is no profit number.
'$930K revenue' does the work; 'break-even with addbacks' hides in the notes. Our rebuild is the only earnings view on the table.
