PETROS SPEAKEASY eyes opening at 431 E Culver Blvd in Playa del Rey
Petros MB Inc. has filed a Type 47 on-sale general liquor license for a new eatery at 431 E Culver Blvd. The company’s Instagram teases an opening soon, but public records show the venue is still awaiting occupancy and health approvals.
A pending liquor-license application filed on September 16 2026 signals that PETROS SPEAKEASY plans to open a new dining spot at 431 E Culver Blvd in Playa del Rey. The filing lists the business as doing business as PETROS SPEAKEASY and the registered entity as PETROS MB INC, with license number 681858 and a Type 47 on-sale general license for an eating place.
The brand’s Instagram account has posted that the new location will open shortly, but the public record does not yet include a certificate of occupancy, a health-department clearance, or any construction permits. Those documents are required before the restaurant can legally serve guests, so the exact opening date remains unconfirmed.
What the filing shows
The California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) record confirms that a license application was submitted for the Culver Boulevard address. The status is marked PEND, meaning the state has not issued the permit and the filing alone does not establish a menu, concept, or opening timeline.
The application does not contain a certificate of occupancy or a health-department permit, both of which are necessary for a restaurant to operate. Without those approvals, the venue cannot serve food or alcohol, and the filing provides no construction schedule or start date.
The same record notes that the license is for an on-sale general establishment, which would allow PETROS SPEAKEASY to serve a full bar alongside a kitchen. Until the pending status is resolved, the venue remains a planned project rather than an active restaurant.



Operator background and upcoming plans
PETROS MB INC already runs a PETROS restaurant at 9201 Sunset Blvd in West Hollywood. The company’s Instagram post about the Culver Blvd site mentions that the new spot will open shortly, suggesting the brand is extending its footprint while still operating the West Hollywood location.
Editor notes indicate that the Culver Blvd filing represents a relocation of the company’s Manhattan Beach location to Playa del Rey. The move would add a second venue for the brand in the Los Angeles area, complementing the existing West Hollywood restaurant.
Future public filings, such as a certificate of occupancy or a health-department approval, will be the first concrete evidence that the doors are ready to open. Until those records appear, the only confirmed details are the license application, the address, and the brand’s social-media hint that an opening is imminent.
Public records confirm PETROS SPEAKEASY has filed for a Type 47 on-sale general liquor license at 431 E Culver Blvd, but the application is still pending. The brand’s Instagram says the new spot will open shortly, while the company continues to operate its West Hollywood location at 9201 Sunset Blvd. No occupancy or health permits are on file, so the opening date remains unverified.
