What is it? This modern and moody aperitivo bar in Downtown emphasizes Italian spirits, boasting an expertly curated menu of Italian-inspired cocktails and fortified wines like vermouth and sherry. The project is a collaboration between Most Imaginative Bartender winner Valentino Longo, a cocktail master best known for his work at the Surf Club, along with Sunny's Steakhouse’s Will Thompson and Carey Hynes, who preside over food and service.
Why we love it: Since it's a full bar, your night can graduate from wine to stirred and shaken concoctions like the Brucio in Bocca, a twist on a spicy margarita made with Barolo wine and marmalade, Cocchi vermouth torino and tequila.
Time Out tip: Order the Negroni Sbagliato for a shareable and photoworthy beverage. You'd do well to come hungry, too: pasta, charcuterie and fresh catches for the raw bar feature on the food menu.
