VB Lounge, which opened last December in downtown Chandler, has a new name: Sasha’s Kitchen & Cocktails.
Owner Sasha Cosic, who also operates Va Bene, an award-winning Italian restaurant and wine bar in Ahwatukee, bought the former di Sciacca glassware retail store on Boston Street in late 2015 and took more than a year to launch VB Lounge.
With the name change, chef Brent Tratten’s menu shifts from refined contemporary American to more casual American comfort foods. Goodbye, tartines and osso bucco. Hello, Gladys’ Meatloaf and Not Your Grandma’s Fried Chicken.
Sasha’s Kitchen & Cocktails is open 11 a.m.-11 p.m. Sunday-Thursday and 11 a.m.-2 a.m. Friday-Saturday.
