GRANDVILLE, MI — The owners of a new upscale event venue and speakeasy-style lounge in Grandville aim to bring a world-class destination for events and entertainment to West Michigan.

Villa Bar & Banquet and Dungeon Bar & Lounge opened late last week inside the former Grand Villa Tex-Mex restaurant at 3594 Chicago Drive SW.

Owners Manoj Mulki and Nina Mahesh transformed the former bar and restaurant, which closed in 2022, after an over $1 million, three-year renovation.

“Our vision was to create a venue that blends timeless elegance with modern sophistication,” Mulki said in a statement. “Villa Bar & Banquet is more than just a space — it’s an experience where people can gather, celebrate and create memories that last a lifetime.”
