From the folks behind The Coldroom, El Pequeño and Bisou Bisou comes an ode to Italian aperitivo culture. Think posters from 1980s pop culture, taralli and focaccia for snacking, and the requisite Aperol Spritzes. Venture beyond the latter. The Sbagliatos and spiked shakeratos, and the bitter Americanos and fluffy Garibaldis are all built for languorous summer afternoons on the large patio. A charming vintage vending machine dispenses eight bottled Negronis, including a rotating seasonal riff — rhubarb and basil in spring, apple and brown butter in autumn. Bitter-loving drinkers can choose from a long list of digestivi. Grab a café seat and snack on a cocktail that tastes like tiramisù or sink into a banquette and explore the deep Italian vermouth and amari selections.
