Rancho Cucamonga, CA – February 8, 2021 – Progressive Real Estate Partners’ Senior VP Paul Galmarini and Retail Leasing & Sales Specialist Roxy Klein represented the landlord and tenant in the signing of a lease for a 1,974 sf end cap space to Lefty’s Famous Cheesesteak & Grill at 2071 E. Highland Avenue in San Bernardino, CA. Lefty’s is embarking on an aggressive expansion and this will be their flagship SoCal location when they open later this year.
Founded in Detroit in 2009 by accomplished restaurateur Sam Berry, Lefty’s serves lunch and dinner and is well-known for their fresh and delicious menu of cheesesteak hoagies, burgers and corned beef sandwiches. Customers have a choice of dine-in or take-out. Inspired by his own left-handedness, Berry named the restaurant Lefty’s and elements of 
the décor celebrate the theme including pictures of famous lefties such as Oprah Winfrey and Bill Gates. Guests can also put themselves to the test by trying to write their name left-handed on a dry-erase board in Lefty’s Corner.
The fast casual restaurant will open in a brand new 3-tenant shop building which is located in a Cardenas and Planet Fitness anchored shopping center at the signalized intersection of Highland and Sterling Avenues less than ¼ mile from the I-210 freeway. Lefty’s will join a Starbucks drive-thru and Cricket Wireless store in the 100% leased pad building which is also directly adjacent to a recently opened Wendy’s drive-thru.
