Fully operational, fan-favorite modern restaurant and bar, one block from the Forest Ave M in the center of Ridgewood’s thriving hospitality scene. In-line with mainstays Bakeri (Greenpoint, Ridgewood) and celebrated home store Stay Forever, this space is housed in a charming and well-maintained corner building with loads of historic character — and the sight of plenty of coveted foot traffic.

Recently renovated throughout and expanded to full liquor, the current operator, Julia’s, continues to draw a diverse crowd of locals and the Ridgewood-curious to packed brunch, lunch, happy hour, and dinner seatings in its gorgeously appointed dining room, serving a smart and unfussy au courant f&b menu powered by a compact but mighty electric kitchen. 3-phase electric; efficient, renovated subgrade refrigeration and storage; and an easy route to fully exhaust for a gas kitchen create a flexible opportunity to tweak an existing dynamic operation to match your successful concept.

Make your mark in Time Out’s “Coolest Neighborhood in America” and attract the area's many creative professionals, young families, and neighborhood-hoppers together with stand-out neighbors Rolo’s, Topos, Decades, Cholita, Il Gigante, OPC, Plein Air, Forêt, Cassette, Little Luncheonette, Honey Moon Coffee, Saint Seneca, and so many more in Ridgewood’s most ready and well-positioned hospitality space.

John Burnham

Managing Principal

John’s SF Bay Area upbringing taught him the value of collaboration and communication across all cultures and inclinations. At age 14, he dove into what would become an award-winning service career — developing a passion for hard work, professional courtesy, and profound community through working and managing at some of the nation’s most seminal hospitality institutions; including Alice Waters’ Chez Panisse and Craig Stoll’s Delfina. John’s appetite for NYC commercial real estate was galvanized by early efforts that brought value not just to his property owner clients, but to the greater business communities and neighborhoods he serves. Employing an intrinsic understanding of NYC’s most progressive markets and the operators that make them world-renowned, John is thrilled to reorient the commercial brokerage experience through a lense of integrity, savvy, and service; ushering in dynamic growth and leading-edge development with smart work that’s uniquely in-step with the industries and business environments that make New York the criterion for cosmopolitan enterprise. When not in the field or at his desk, John can be found exploring hidden lakes and lost trails in New York's wild places; practicing Shaolin kung fu; getting lost in virtual crate-digging; or devouring har gow in all the old familiar places.
