Coming Soon: A Turnkey Restaurant Space on Charleston's Upper King Street (Former Fuji Sushi)
General information about an upcoming listing — details, photos, and pricing to follow. Always do your own due diligence.
If you've ever wanted to own a restaurant on King Street — Charleston's most famous dining and retail corridor — opportunities like this don't come around often. A turnkey, second-generation restaurant space is coming soon to ListingLedge: the former Fuji Sushi location at 585 King Street, in the heart of the Upper King district.
Why Upper King Street is special
Charleston is consistently ranked among the best food cities in the country, and King Street is its spine. The Upper King stretch — around the Cannonborough-Elliottborough neighborhood — is one of the city's liveliest dining-and-nightlife corridors, with heavy pedestrian traffic, a dense mix of restaurants and bars, and a steady flow of both locals and visitors. A storefront here isn't just a location; it's a built-in audience.
Why a second-generation space matters
This is a second-generation restaurant space — meaning it already operated as a restaurant for years. That's a real head start: rather than building a commercial kitchen from scratch (permits, hood, plumbing, and months of construction), a new operator can step into a space designed for food service in a proven location. On a street where availability is tight and build-outs are expensive, a turnkey spot is exactly the kind of opportunity smart operators watch for. (Here's the case for buying the space, not the concept.)

Frequently Asked Questions
What restaurant space is coming soon on Upper King Street in Charleston?
A turnkey, second-generation restaurant space at 585 King Street — the former Fuji Sushi location in Charleston's Upper King dining district (near Cannonborough-Elliottborough). It's coming soon to ListingLedge; full details, photos, and pricing will be posted on the listing as they're finalized.
Why is a King Street restaurant location valuable?
King Street is Charleston's premier dining and retail corridor, in one of the top-rated food cities in the U.S. The Upper King stretch has heavy foot traffic and a dense concentration of restaurants and bars, so a storefront there comes with built-in visibility and a steady flow of locals and visitors. Prime, available King Street restaurant space is relatively rare, which is what makes an opportunity like this notable.
What does a 'second-generation' restaurant space mean, and why does it help?
A second-generation space previously operated as a restaurant, so it typically comes with the commercial kitchen, hood, plumbing, and food-service build-out already in place. Taking one over saves the time and cost of building a kitchen from scratch — a major advantage on a high-demand street where construction is expensive and space is limited.
