Executive Summary
Open on day one in Brickell — fully equipped, fully permitted, six years proven.
The Cocinita Miami offers a rare opportunity in Brickell: a fully functional restaurant space, equipped and with all operating permits current. Six years of successful operation prove the location works. The biggest value for a buyer is not waiting six months for grease traps, health certifications, operating permits and other regulatory approvals — everything is ready to open on day one.
This is a key-money (right-to-operate) opportunity to take over a fully operational space. The buyer gets the four walls, the complete equipment package, a premium Brickell location and all permits — then operates under their own business model, brand and procedures. Ideal for restaurant operators, experienced entrepreneurs, or qualified E-2 visa investors.
