Overview
Italian wine bar and restaurant Casa Mariotti just landed on Richmond's Swan Street, and the team is celebrating by running a special aperitivo session from Wednesday–Sunday until the end of October.
Drop by anytime from 4–6pm and you can score a selection of wine, beer and cocktails starting at $9 a pop alongside complimentary snacks. And these aren't just free peanuts or popcorn — the crew is giving away top-notch bar snacks. Think bruschetta al pomodoro, bowls of lupin and seasonal frittata.
You could simply drop by the new Casa Mariotti Bar & Cucina for beers and free small bites, but you'd be a fool if you missed out on some of its larger dishes. Get around its deep-fried mozzarella and anchovy crostini and rice balls, or try bigger dishes like its handmade pastas and warming sugos.
The brothers running the show — Guido and Guiacomo Mariotti — have been inspired by their nonna's old family recipes, plus their experience working in Roman restaurants for over 20 years. If you want to sample a little slice of Rome in Melbourne, be sure to check out this new wine bar and restaurant's temporary aperitivo special.
