SUSHI OCEAN – Premium Japanese Sushi & Izakaya Restaurant for Transfer in Budapest District V
Successfully Operating for 9 Years | Prime Downtown Location | Fully Equipped | Business Transfer Available from January 2027
A rare opportunity to take over a well-established Japanese restaurant in the heart of Budapest.
Sushi Ocean is located on Széchenyi Street, in the prestigious District V (Belváros) of Budapest, Hungary. This authentic Japanese Sushi & Izakaya restaurant has been successfully operating for more than 9 years, with a loyal customer base, an excellent reputation, and a complete operating system already in place.

The restaurant continues to operate normally and has become a popular destination for local residents, international tourists, expatriates, and business professionals.

With a 4.5-star Google rating and more than 1,219 genuine Google reviews, Sushi Ocean offers an established brand and strong online presence that continues to grow.

The only reason for the transfer is the owner’s retirement and permanent return to China.

This is an ideal investment for restaurant operators, hospitality investors, or anyone looking for a ready-to-run business instead of starting from scratch.
