BELLO Introduces Weekday APERITIVO
03.04.20
Searching for a happy hour that’s all about a taste of Italy? You’re in luck now that BELLO by Sandro Nardone launched a weekday Aperitivo, or Happy Hour, from 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.
Featured on BELLO’s Happy Hour menu are cocktails and select wines, along with small plates such as Meatballs, Baccalau Fritters and Mortadella, and Fontina Grilled Cheese. Guests will be able to order off the restaurant’s dinner menu, which includes Chef Sandro’s noted Brick-Oven Pizzas (offered for dinner Sunday through Thursday).
“Our bar program is led by Italian-born and trained bartender Lorenzo Radicci,” added Chef Chef/Owner Sandro Nardon. “He has literally been making cocktails since he was a child, as his family owned a bar in Italy. At BELLO, he has created a series of unique Italian cocktails, including the Cappuccino Negroni, which is one of my favorites and extremely popular with our guests.”
Bello’s signature Happy Hour cocktail is Radicci’s Mare Blu, a refreshing blend of vodka, grapefruit juice, lime, triple sec and blue curacao served in a glass that has been rimmed with dried chili and lime.
BELLO offers Happy Hour in its bar area Monday through Friday from 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
BELLO by Sandro Nardone is located at 1200 Bison (at MacArthur) in Newport Beach.949.520.7191.
