I worked many years in a downtown office area. Almost never ate
breakfast there. I have no idea what would make a breakfast place
attractive.

Ate lunch out every day, usually Japanese or Chinese though the
neighborhood did have a taco joint and a sandwich place. I'd expect a
lunch deli to attract some business but sandwich making would have to
be fast and a selection of soups would be mandatory. Don't locate it
near a Subway--whatever their faults they are fast.

Here the competition is the brown bag and McD's. The menu would need
to be quite different from that, and speed of service would be
important. Dinner offerings would have to be extraordinary to attract
evening business to the location.

Completely different kettle of fish from the others. I have no idea
what 'southern comforts' means. If it means New Orleans, I personally
think Creole/Cajun food has a quite limited appeal. If it means fried
chicken and cornbread, I don't equate that with an elegant bar. -

I wouldn't invest in any of these. Then again, short of fine dining/
celebrity chef I don't know what restaurant I would invest iin. -
