At some point, after Dublin’s closed in this location it reopened, replacing the former Ciao Trattoria restaurant, on 7th Street in the 1926 Fine Arts building.

8240 Sunset Blvd. seems to have been a number of establishments, beginning possibly with the:

Colonial Drive-In
Hollywood Photographs has the Colonial Drive-In listed at 8240 Sunset Blvd. in a photo dated as 1936.

But Chuckaluck had this post identifying the same Colonial Drive-In photo as c. 1933 and located at 6429 Sunset Blvd.

I just found this Herman J. Schultheis photo labeled 1938 from LAPL, with the 8240 address:

It was also the:

Marquis Restaurant
...noted in a post by ER and another by GW:

I’m not positive of the order, but after that it was the Mexican club/restaurant Carlos & Charlie's, Dublin's Irish Pub, and in the GSV view in ER’s post it is or was Sunset Beach.
