Sabi bought the three-bedroom, three-and-a half bath condo for $5.9 million in 2011, records show.

In September, a W South Beach condo owned by the late star architect Zaha Hadid sold for $5.75 million. Hadid lived in the unit while she was designing One Thousand Museum — her first and final residential project in the western hemisphere.

The 20-story W South Beach was developed by Related Group, Starwood and TriStar Capital. It was designed by Nichols Brosch Sandoval and Costas Kondylis, and completed in 2008.

Sabi’s Roadhouse Grill was a casual dining restaurant founded in 1992, whose motto was “eat, drink and be yourself.” The company struggled financially as it expanded and was reorganized under Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2002.
