This is one of W. Seattle’s premier bistros. It is a true destination restaurant with a unique twist. It has been in this neighborhood for over 20 years.

The business is currently open 4 days a week and only for dinner – thus the owner works about 25 hours per week. The inside dining area seats about 48 and there is seating outside on the fenced patio and front for about 24. There is an open bar serving Class H drinks and wine. There is a full kitchen with an 8 foot hood, grill, six burner stove, a flat top, and fryer. There is plenty of storage. The new owner could easily open for more days per week and offer weekend brunches to increase the revenues. The current owner has not utilized social media but rather relied upon the bistro’s reputation and word of mouth from its loyal customer base. The Seller is selling due to a recent family illness that forces the immediate sale of the business. The Seller will offer terms of 50% down, a 3 year amortization, at 6% interest to a qualified buyer. Don’t miss out on this rare opportunity to be part of the vibrant W.
