You’ll need about $300,000 in unencumbered cash.
How much does a Qué Padre cost?
The turnkey cost of a restaurant ranges from $700,000 to $850,000. Factors such as local labor, the cost of materials, legal requirements, the condition of the space to be leased and the landlord’s contribution to leasehold improvements will determine the final cost.

- Two (2) weeks of training (theoretical and practical)
- Three (3) weeks on-site training and opening assistance
As an investor, do I also have to run the restaurant?
Qué Padre’s policy is that one of the partners with at least 10% participation completes our training program and is responsible for the day-to-day running of the restaurant.

It can take about 12 to 20 weeks to be ready to serve customers once we’ve secured a qualified location.
