Figulina is bringing Italy to Raleigh with their Aperitivo menu—available 5:00 pm to 6:30 pm on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Think pre-dinner drinks, light bites, and an excuse to pretend you’re on an Italian holiday. Choose from classic cocktails like the Aperol Spritz or Negroni, pair it with ricotta-stuffed dates or house focaccia, and suddenly, your weeknight feels a whole lot fancier.
Nope, not sponsored. We just believe in the magic of a well-timed spritz. 🍸
