An existing restaurant at 4515 Florida Ave S was remodeled inside and out, with a new pole sign, building sign, and roughly $750,000 in interior work.
Over the second half of 2025, the owner of 4515 Florida Avenue South — listed in city records as 4515 Florida Adventures LLC — pulled a string of permits to overhaul an existing restaurant. The work included new exhaust fans, replacing obsolete electrical panels, interior non-structural demolition, a pole sign and a building sign, low-voltage data/TV/audio wiring, and a full interior remodel valued at about $750,000.
The central permit describes an "interior remodel of existing restaurant" and was issued in November 2025. By early 2026 all of the permits in this project had reached Finaled status, which means the city signed off on the completed work.
The records don't name the restaurant or say when it opens, so that part is not yet public.
