There's a brand-new cocktail bar in town. The new arrival to Venice, called Gran Blanco, is located at 80 Windward Ave. and comes courtesy of the same owners behind coastal-Californian spot Great White, Eater LA reports.
A full-bar is on offer, complete with wine, beer and signature cocktails like the Tiki Drink with rum, pineapple, aloe and passionfruit.
Mediterranean-inspired plates are also on hand, from beetroot hummus with farmers market crudités to charred octopus with romesco, Fresno chilies and herb salad. (You can view the full menu here.)
The new cocktail bar has already attracted fans thus far, with a 4.5-star rating out of four reviews on Yelp.
Gaby M., who was among the first Yelpers to review Gran Blanco on June 1, wrote, "Just checked this new spot out last week! Great ambiance, cocktails and good bites. Very trendy!"
"This place has such a great location, right under the Venice sign!" added Yelper Lauren F. "To me, the vibe of this place is way more upscale and trendy than your other typical Venice restaurants, but I loved it! .... I ordered the Tiki Drink, because I'm still hoping summer is right around the corner! It was delicious!"
Swing on by to take a peek for yourself: Gran Blanco is open from 5 p.m.–midnight on Sunday-Thursday and 5 p.m.–2 a.m. on Friday and Saturday.
