Urbano Pizza Bar Relocates, 6th St. Tavern Moves In

New, 8 comments

It's funny to see a big photo of chef Bruce Kalman atop a piece in the LA Times today which reads, "Urbano Pizza Bar is moving, to be replaced by 6th St. Tavern." Kalman hasn't been the chef at Urbano since late summer (despite a caption under the image which refers to him as "Chef Bruce Kalman of Urbano Pizza Bar"), he officially took over as The Churchill's executive chef on September 1. But, in any event, Urbano owners Michael Leko and Will Shamlian (Library Bar, Spring Street Bar) have partnered with Jon Valenti and Steen Bojsen-Moller to launch a hospitality company called ACME Bar Group. They're planning to relocate Urbano to a tbd location, and replace the pizza bar with a new concept, 6th St. Tavern, to open during the first quarter of next year. As for Urbano, its new home will be larger and ACME is considering multiple units.
