I’ve been a regular of Diesel for I think 10 years. Hoping something gets worked out that keeps this place what it is with the staff and the regulars. It’s been my second home for awhile and I’m going to miss the place if it becomes another boutique soap shop on this strip.
$7,000 per month lease; debt service on $225,000; electric and gas bill; employees, food and liquor bill…..how much could it generate in a month to make a profit?
