Business Summary:
This Marina del Rey / Venice Beach Area restaurant with beer and wine is a local favorite that continues to grow. The restaurant’s ideal location, which attracts the locals, tourists and beach-gowers alike, provides a tranquil setting that ideally fits this restaurant’s high-end, yet beach causal concept. The restaurant, which is only open for lunch and dinner despite customers near demands for a breakfast offering, has managed to carve out a unique market niche that has remained unmet in the neighboring beachside communities. Additional opportunities for growth, apart from the natural organic growth the venue continues to receive from its stellar online reviews and its word of mouth referrals, include delivery service (which customers continue to request), aggressive advertising (website creation, online ads, Citysearch, coupon mailers, etc.). and valet service.

| Potential
Growth/Expansion:
Though this business has a delivery friendly concept, they do not do it. Similarly, they do not offer breakfast service (despite customer requests), and have yet to implement valet parking (which should also prove profitable). Aside from passing out flyers in the neighborhood, this seller has not engaged in any formal marketing activities. |

|
| Competition:
Marina del Rey, Venice Beach and Main Street Santa Monica have a plethora of formidable dining concepts. The restaurateur, however, has managed to carve out a unique market niche that sets it apart from the competition. The business’s unique concept, convenient location, and its plentiful growth opportunities, should help ensure a long term sustainable advantage over its competition. |
