Business description
Rare Long-Established Italian Restaurant | High Revenue | Strong Cash Flow This is a rare opportunity to acquire a highly profitable, owner-operated Italian restaurant that has served as a cornerstone of its Long Island community for more than 50 years. Established in 1972, the business has earned an outstanding reputation for authentic Italian cuisine, a loyal multigenerational customer base, and steady financial performance. Generating more than $3.5 million in annual gross revenue and approximately $700,000 in net profit , this is a true turnkey opportunity for an experienced operator, restaurateur, or hospitality group seeking a proven, high-cash-flow business. The restaurant features a fully equipped kitchen, an upscale dining atmosphere, and the systems and infrastructure needed to support continued success. Its menu is known for traditional Italian favorites, including handmade pastas, fresh seafood, and classic meat dishes, all backed by decades of consistency in both quality and service. While the business has been primarily owner-operated, a strong hands-on buyer may see additional upside through tighter cost controls, expanded operating hours, catering growth, private events, or more aggressive marketing initiatives. Key Highlights Over 50 years in operation with strong brand recognition Loyal, established customer base and excellent local reputation More than $3.5 million in annual gross revenue Approximately $700,000 in bottom-line profit Fully built-out, turnkey operation with experienced staff and proven systems Significant goodwill and long-standing presence in the market This is an ideal acquisition for an experienced restaurant operator, hospitality group, or qualified investor looking for a stable, income-producing business with a long operating history and strong community presence. Serious inquiries only. Proof of funds required.
