Cicchetti Bar at tavola restaurant
tavola offers inspired rustic Italian fostered by a staff passionate about food, wine, craft cocktails & personal service.
New cocktail line up! An old school mixed tape ode to spring, all inspired by 80's hits. From left to right: pretty in pink, walking on sunshine, let's go crazy, inbetween days, rock the casbah and blue monday. This lineup is light, refreshing, and great for warm weather sipping on our patio. Reserve a spot and see you soon!
Spring spritz special for tonight! Cap corse blanc, sparkling rose, and cucumber. Simple and delicious. Mmm, springy.
Hello friends, we've got a Peroni shortage! Due to shipping delays related to covid, our favorite Italian draft is not available for a few weeks. To tide us over, we just got in Moretti, a tasty, bottled Italian lager. Available in house, or to-go by request.
While we can't quite celebrate St. Patrick's day the way we would like just yet, we couldn't let it go by without a few specials for the cocktail menu. Tomorrow night we will have Irish coffees, an Irish Boulevardier, Guiness and Smithwick's for you! Want it with your to go order? Just let us know!

Kicking off Women's history month (a couple days late, but I digress) with the Hanky-Panky! Ever had one? First stirred up by Ada Coleman, who was the head bartender of the American Bar at the Savoy Hotel starting in 1903. The cocktail was allegedly created for Sir Charles Hawtrey, who exclaimed upon his first sip "By Jove! That is the real hanky-panky!"
I make mine with Tanqueray, Contratto Rosso and a wee barspoon of Fernet Branca. So delicious. Want one? Just give me a holler, and I'll make you one to go with your takeout, or just ask the next time you dine with us.
While we have temporarily halted indoor dining, we are expanding the range of to go cocktails. Newly available from the in-house menu are our Pomegranate Cosmo, Espresso Martini, a Seasonal Gin & Tonic kit and a Bicicletta spritz kit (kits make 2 cocktails). Delicious new options to go with your takeout dinner! Look for even more new choices next week!

Thankfully our staff member acted immediately when symptoms arose—isolating and getting tested while the restaurant underwent a deep cleaning.
We attribute the quick containment to our safe practices of constant disinfecting of surfaces, temperature monitoring, wearing masks and gloves at all times.
We will continue our strict commitment to the safety of our staff, patrons, and community as we move forward in these challenging times.
