Aperitivo is named after the Italian custom of having small snacks and drinks after work, similar to the time-honored “happy hour.” The restaurant-bar has an industrial-elegant atmosphere that’s dimly lit in the evening. They serve a simple breakfast, including a breakfast burrito ($6.50) and Greek yogurt with fruit and honey ($4.50), along with lunch and dinner sandwiches ($8) and salads ($6-$8). Options range from a hot pressed medianoche (similar to a cubano) to a hummus and vegetable wrap. True to its name, the restaurant will also serve aperitivo with complimentary snacks with a drink purchase. A curated wine selection is available, as are classic cocktails like Aperol spritz ($9), bellinis ($10) and negronis ($12).
