Italian Coastal Aperitivo

An easy, early-evening take on the Italian ritual of aperitivo, this gathering centers around light bites, bright flavors, and a naturally social pace. The menu features arancini, prosciutto and burrata cups, marinated olives and almonds, and chicken piccata bites—simple, elegant, and designed for grazing.

Behind the bar, it’s all about classic Italian spritz culture, with a Negroni Sbagliato, Aperol Spritz, and Limoncello Spritz setting a crisp, refreshing tone.

The setting leans understated and atmospheric, with olive branches, candle clusters, and a soft, coastal palette creating a relaxed, Mediterranean-inspired evening that feels both intimate and effortlessly social.
