Since 2012, Aperitivo has offered seasonal, ‘from scratch’ food inspired by the flavours and traditions of the Mediterranean, while highlighting the remarkable products available locally, as well as some of our favourite specialties from our travels, and of course, unique, small production wines from around the world. While we deal with the unpredictable nature of Covid 19, and the changing rules

under which we currently operate, our first priority is to the safety of our staff and guests. We will be available for dining in the restaurant when possible, patio dining on our covered and heated patio when we are able, and takeaway throughout.

Canada’s hosting and we’re watching every minute of it.

For the next five weeks, both our dining room and patio have screens up for the tournament. Whether you’re catching Canada’s opener Friday or planning around a weekend match, come in, eat well, and watch the game.

A few things worth knowing: patio seats are limited and genuinely first come, first served — we won’t pull anyone mid-match, so availability depends on who’s already there. Reservations get priority consideration for the patio but can’t guarantee it. If the patio’s full, the dining room screen is always on. Book inside, request the patio in your reservation note, and we’ll do our best.

Mediterranean food, natural wine, and the beautiful game. Worse ways to spend a summer afternoon.

Nearly 14 years in. Scratch kitchen, rotating menu, a wine program that leans natural and keeps moving. Patio just opened — covered, quiet, actually pleasant. We’re tucked into a pedestrian walkway — easy to miss, worth finding. Top 5 restaurants in Ottawa on TripAdvisor. 4.5 stars on Google.

Launching our 2026 Sunday Wine Series 🍷
We’re back for our first tasting of the year, and we’re starting with a heavyweight. On Sunday, April 19, join us at Aperitivo as we feature the incredible portfolio of Thomas Bachelder.
Thomas’s impact on Ontario winemaking is peerless. With a career spanning the top terroirs of Burgundy and Oregon, he returned to Niagara to pioneer the sub-appellation movement—mapping the very sites that define our region today.
As we spend this summer showcasing our favorite Canadian wineries, Bachelder Wines serves as the essential benchmark for everything we love about cool-climate Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and beyond.
The Details:
📅 Sunday, April 19 | 4:00—6:00 PM
🍷 4 Wines + Curated Snacks
💰 $50 per person
📍 Aperitivo, Kanata
The Lineup:
✨ ‘Les Villages’ Bench Chardonnay
✨ ‘Les Villages’ Bench Pinot Noir
✨ PTG Blanc
✨ PTG Rouge
Space is strictly limited for these sessions.
🎟 Tickets are available now via the link in our bio or at Aperitivo.ca
