Gin Palace Makes Itself at Home in East Village

From Ravi DeRossi comes Gin Palace, a rock-and-roll themed bar with ideal dim lighting. The East Village has a new gin joint just in time for those dog day summer evenings.

The opening comes as a replacement for DeRossi’s former restaurant, El Cobre.

Located in DeRossi’s Cuban complex, Cienfuego’s on Avenue A, Gin Palace offers a signature cocktail menu that's comfortably perched at 10 dollars.
