Market Context
Restaurants for Lease
Irving sits in the heart of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex and is home to one of the largest concentrations of corporate headquarters in Texas, including Las Colinas with its waterway-anchored Toyota Music Factory district. Strong daytime corporate demand combined with steady residential population creates a balanced restaurant real estate market with meaningful entry points below the Dallas core.
Lease rates in Irving vary substantially by submarket. Prime corridors command $30 to $45 per square foot annually. Secondary submarkets typically range from $20 to $30 per square foot. Second-generation restaurant spaces — already permitted, hooded, and trapped — substantially reduce build-out cost and time to open, which is why they tend to lease quickly when priced appropriately.
Most Irving restaurant leases are NNN structures and run 5 to 10 years with one or two renewal options. Personal guarantees are standard. Tenant improvement allowances are often available on second-generation spaces, especially when the landlord is replacing a struggling tenant. Operators planning to serve alcohol should factor in TABC license transfer or new application timelines when negotiating possession dates.
