Breeze Dim Sum Restaurant to Launch Second Location in Downtown Brooklyn
Breeze, a well-known Sichuan and dim sum restaurant, is expanding its presence in Brooklyn with the opening of a second location this fall at 590 Fulton Street. This new establishment will occupy 3,569 square feet, with 2,790 square feet on the ground floor and an additional 779 square feet on the lower level. The lease was finalized for a term of 15 years, as announced by broker Lee & Associates NYC.
The average asking rent for retail spaces along Brooklyn’s Fulton Street was reported at $190 per square foot in 2025, although the specific rent for Breeze's new location has not been disclosed. The restaurant's first location is situated at 595 Manhattan Avenue in Greenpoint, where it has enjoyed considerable success.
Brad Schwarz and Zev Sonkin of Lee & Associates NYC represented both the tenant and the landlord in this transaction. Schwarz noted that the decision to open a flagship location in Downtown Brooklyn was driven by the area's rapid development and strong residential density. He emphasized that the combination of excellent visibility and high ceilings made the space ideal for Breeze to elevate its brand.
The demand for well-located restaurant spaces continues to grow, with operators seeking long-term growth opportunities in vibrant neighborhoods. Breeze's expansion reflects this trend, as the restaurant aims to attract both new and returning customers with its renowned dim sum offerings and curated beverage program.
