Experimental Cocktail Club
The Cut· research-verified, not yet visited
The bar inside Il Palazzo Experimental on the Zattere: discreet side entrance, Cristina Celestino interiors, a seasonal Italian-spirits list.
Part of the Experimental Group (Paris, London, New York, Menorca), tucked into the corner of Il Palazzo Experimental's lobby with its own quiet entrance on the canal-side fondamenta. Celestino designed the room around polychromatic marble countertops and torchon rope mouldings, a sober nod to Carlo Scarpa. The menu rotates seasonally and favors Italian spirits (Cynar, Select, grappa) with global technique. Reserve for weekends; the room seats maybe thirty. Open Thursday to Monday, 6:30 p.m. to 1 a.m., until 2 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays.
