Description

An established, full-service Mexican restaurant and bar in Waxahachie, Texas, is available for acquisition. Operating for approximately three and a half years, the business has built a loyal local following with a welcoming atmosphere, made-from-scratch menu, and service that appeals to guests throughout the day. Breakfast is served all day, alongside lunch, dinner, cocktails, takeout, and catering.

The approximately 3,700-square-foot space is designed for both everyday dining and special occasions. It features a full bar, an outdoor patio suited to events and live music, and a large parking lot.

The business serves corporate offices, schools, churches, family celebrations, and other events throughout Ellis County and nearby areas. Its existing team of approximately 25 employees supports restaurant and catering operations.

The seller reports annual sales of more than $2 million and Best of Ellis County recognition in 2023, 2024, and 2025, including Best Caterer recognition in 2024. The asking price is $499,000. Potential sale inclusions may include recipes and menu, kitchen and bar equipment, furniture, fixtures, décor, POS system, website, social media accounts, and catering and supplier relationships, subject to the final sale agreement.

The seller reports SBA financing approval of up to $750,000 for a qualified buyer; prospective buyers should confirm financing eligibility and terms directly with a lender. Additional financial records, lease details, and an equipment list are available to qualified buyers after signing a confidentiality agreement and providing proof of funds or financing.
