Aperitivo takes its name from L’aperitivo, which
refers to an integral part of Italian culture that
began in Milan and has spread throughout the
region. It’s all about catching up with friends,
relaxing after a long day and enjoying an
aperitif and snack. That’s exactly what Aperitivo
encourages you to do – here dishes have a
Sicilian twist, to provide a taste of the south of
Italy, in the north of Scotland. Everything is freshly
prepared, and you’ll enjoy your food and drink
that bit more in the glamorous and retro 1940s
designed surroundings. The family-run business
is open seven days a week for lunch and evening
meals, and diners have a choice of light lunches,
tapas in the form of meze dishes, set menus, or a
la carte dining. There’s something for everyone,
with special menus available for kids, vegans,
large parties and seasonal events too.
