History

Lobster quesadillas among the soon-to-be condos

Time Out described Kanvas as a roomy venue for group celebrations, surrounded by art galleries and soon-to-be condos1. Large, comfortable banquettes set the mood and an extensive drink list did the rest1, with fresh strawberry mojitos and lounge food like lobster quesadillas1. Time Out's listing for it is now marked closed1.
