Restaurants For Lease
Restaurant leases in Torrance are available in the Del Amo Fashion Center area, Old Torrance, the Riviera Village corridor, and the corporate corridors near the Honda North America campus. Second-generation restaurant spaces are regularly available, and landlords in the current market are motivated to attract quality operators.
Second-generation restaurant spaces are the most cost-efficient leasing option available to operators entering Torrance. A second-gen space in Torrance comes with existing food service infrastructure already in place: hood systems, grease traps, commercial plumbing, walk-in coolers, and often current health permits. This can save operators $100,000 to $400,000 in build-out costs and compress the time from lease signing to opening day from twelve or more months to as few as four to eight weeks. TableLot is the only marketplace where operators can search for second-generation restaurant spaces in Torrance using restaurant-specific filters. Search by hood systems, grease traps, walk-in coolers, patio availability, and existing permits to identify spaces that match your concept without extensive back-and-forth.

Searching for Restaurants for Lease in Torrance? Discover Opportunities
Restaurant operators leasing in Torrance should verify parking compliance carefully, as Del Amo corridor spaces are subject to strict parking ratio requirements. Negotiate TI allowances and free rent for the build-out period, and ensure the lease use clause is broad enough to accommodate any future concept evolution.
Base rent for restaurant spaces in Torrance ranges from approximately $22 to $42 per square foot annually. Most restaurant leases in Torrance and throughout Los Angeles County are structured as Triple Net agreements, meaning tenants pay base rent plus property taxes, building insurance, and common area maintenance fees. Always negotiate annual NNN charge caps of three to five percent and a tenant improvement allowance before signing a restaurant lease in Torrance. For a 2,000 square foot restaurant space in Torrance at the midpoint of this range, annual occupancy costs before NNN charges would be approximately $64,000. To maintain a healthy occupancy cost ratio of eight to ten percent of gross sales, an operator would need to generate annual revenue of $672,000 to $800,000 to support this base rent level.
