Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Abbott Kinney Boulevard is home to an eclectic collection of restaurants, boutiques and galleries which are much loved by foodies, local celebrities, international visitors and the rather bohemian residents of Venice Beach.

This is definitely the place to see and be seen. The various establishments are housed in century-old Venice Beach cottages, which happily rub shoulders with modern steel and glass architectural gems.

The boulevard is named after Abbott Kinney, the eccentric 19th century father of Venice Beach, who spent most of his fortune creating the “Venice of America” which has become one of the most loved and visited cities in California.
