Tucked in a quiet corner, Amari manages to feel like a secret even though it's located on one of Midtown's busiest stretches. Next door to the local favourite speakeasy-style Death & Taxes, Amari is an Italian cocktail bar serving up signature sips, wine and inspired by Italian beverages.

Inside, Amari is dim and sexy, an ideal, chandelier-lit spot for guests to engage in deep conversation and intimate moments; casual enough for a weeknight but p anniversary or taking a first date. Or you can head to the patio, where on a warm evening the twinking lights above are the perfect ambiance for a festive gathering with friends.
