Restaurant on US 41 in Sarasota sells for $2.1 million

A veteran restaurateur has purchased a freestanding vacant restaurant on U.S. 41 in Sarasota.

Ramiro Ramirez, owner of Avocado’s Cocina Mexicana & Bar in Bradenton, bought the building at 6131 S. Tamiami Trail for nearly $2.08 million. The property is just north of Stickney Point Road.

The deal marks the second time Realtor Adam Seidel of American Property Group handled the sale of the more than 5,500-square-foot property, according to a statement from the commercial real estate firm; he also brokered a deal for the building that closed in 2022. At that time, New Dynasty bought the property for $1.62 million.
