166 Cashel Street, The Crossing — Christchurch CBD.
Vibrant and cocktail-led. The aperitivo hour that turns into something longer. The room that gets people talking, ordering another round, staying later than planned.
Intimate and centred around our open kitchen. Long tables, shared plates, conversations that stretch well past dessert. The kind of dinner people still talk about next week.
Start with aperitivo in the Negroni bar, move upstairs for a shared dinner. Or take both floors from the beginning and let the evening unfold on your terms.
A welcome drink waiting for every guest as they arrive. Sets the tone before anyone says a word.
One shared moment that brings the whole room together. Ice-cold, perfectly timed. Nobody forgets it.
One final thing from the kitchen when the night should be winding down. Nobody expected it. Nobody forgets it.
Printed menus, custom signage, florals. The small things that make it clear this evening was made for these exact people.
Pasta fresca made in-house. Sharing plates built around generosity. Italian in spirit — without leaning on what everyone expects Italian to be.
Negronis, Spritzes, and Italian wines chosen for what they actually taste like.
Want something specific for your evening — a signature cocktail, a particular wine? We'll make it happen. Special orders covered in full on the final invoice.

The first five minutes set the tone for the whole night. We make sure they land — every time.
Menus with your name on them. Signage that makes the space feel built for this exact evening.
We map the rhythm so it builds naturally. You focus on your guests. We manage the rest.
Table configurations, flow, capacity — all considered before your guests arrive.
"Honestly the perfect set up. Everyone loved the attention to detail — especially our name on the menu. A massive thank you for hosting us so seamlessly."
"We had the most amazing time. Everything was absolutely perfect. Everyone is saying it was the best venue we've ever held a Christmas party at."
"Everything ran so smoothly — staff were attentive, friendly, and always one step ahead. The food and drinks were exceptional."
A date, a headcount, a rough idea — that's all we need.
We'd love to host you. — Ana-Maria
