Position your restaurant concept in one of Berkeley’s most vibrant and sought-after dining corridors. This rare ±2,210 (1,912 useable) SF second-generation restaurant opportunity is strategically located near the highly trafficked intersection of Shattuck Avenue and University Avenue, just one block from the world-renowned University of California, Berkeley campus. Surrounded by a dynamic mix of students, faculty, professionals, residents, and visitors, the location enjoys exceptional pedestrian activity throughout the day and evening in one of the Bay Area’s most energetic college-town environments. The current ownership invested approximately $800,000 into a high-quality buildout, delivering a modern, thoughtfully designed restaurant space that is well-positioned for immediate operation. The premises come equipped with valuable existing infrastructure, including a commercial hood system, walk-in cooler, walk-in freezer, and essential kitchen equipment — significantly reducing startup time and construction costs for an incoming operator. One of the most valuable features of this opportunity is the existing gas line, an increasingly rare asset in Berkeley due to restrictions on gas in new construction projects. This gives future operators a major competitive advantage and flexibility for a wide range of restaurant concepts. With strong daytime and nighttime foot traffic, nearby office presence, dense residential neighborhoods, and the constant energy generated by the Berkeley community, this location offers an outstanding opportunity to establish a successful and thriving restaurant business in a premier market. Rarely do turnkey opportunities with this level of infrastructure, location, and built-in customer base become available in Berkeley. Don’t miss the chance to bring your vision to one of the East Bay’s most desirable restaurant destinations.

Rent Types
The rent amount and type that the tenant (lessee) will be responsible to pay to the landlord (lessor) throughout the lease term is negotiated prior to both parties signing a lease agreement. The rent type will vary depending upon the services provided. For example, triple net rents are typically lower than full service rents due to additional expenses the tenant is required to pay in addition to the base rent. Contact the listing broker for a full understanding of any associated costs or additional expenses for each rent type.
1. Full Service: A rental rate that includes normal building standard services as provided by the landlord within a base year rental.
2. Double Net (NN): Tenant pays for only two of the building expenses; the landlord and tenant determine the specific expenses prior to signing the lease agreement.
3. Triple Net (NNN): A lease in which the tenant is responsible for all expenses associated with their proportional share of occupancy of the building.
4. Modified Gross: Modified Gross is a general type of lease rate where typically the tenant will be responsible for their proportional share of one or more of the expenses. The landlord will pay the remaining expenses. See the below list of common Modified Gross rental rate structures: 4. Plus All Utilities: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of utilities in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Cleaning: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of cleaning in addition to the rent. 4.
