What should I look for when leasing a restaurant in Portland Metro Area?

I'm exploring lease opportunities in Portland Metro Area and want to avoid common pitfalls. Brokers like Matt Schweitzer at North Rim list many properties here — what due diligence steps matter most for restaurant tenants?

Seismic, grease, and whether the use is already restaurant. A retail box that has never had a Type I hood is not a restaurant lease even if the broker files it that way.

Parking for staff plus delivery. Portland lots get tight, and restaurants lose time to street loading rules.
