Aperitivo in Boston at Elephantine

An Italian evening ritual of small plates, cocktails, conviviality, and conversation.

Aperitivo is a cherished Italian tradition — a relaxed moment in the early evening to gather over drinks and small plates.

At Elephantine, we bring this ritual to Boston as a refined, table-service experience, offered by reservation or walk-in. As daylight fades, the room softens, candles are lit, and the rhythm of the evening settles in.

Offered exclusively in the evenings, Aperitivo takes place in our Fort Point space shaped by the proportions and atmosphere of a palazzo. The evening’s menu is distinct from our daytime bakery and café offerings, designed for sharing, lingering, and unhurried conversation.
