MIKE KELLEY

General Manager

Mike made his way west some 10 years ago from the dark haunts of New York City and Washington, D.C. Drawn by its warmth and beauty, he has made California his adopted home. Mike has spent his time happily exploring a never-ending supply of restaurants and bars, searching for that next great cocktail, and finding plenty of inspiration to keep creating. Mike can be found at The Whisper Restaurant and Lounge, catching up with faithful patrons or conducting a wild new experiment in the art of cocktailing. Please come by and say hello.
