Memento: travel-inspired cocktails and aperitifs in the Marais

Published by Julie de Sortiraparis · Updated on November 2, 2026 at 04:51 p.m.
Housed in the former Sherry Butt, Memento brings together a team with experience at the Moonshiner to serve cocktails inspired by travel and the Marais. Mediterranean-inspired small plates accompany the drinks.

Memento has taken over from Sherry Butt in the Marais. The project brings together Matteo Grotti, Joaquin Malki and Marco Duce, the latter also running the neighboring wine bar Magnum. Drawing on their Italian and Argentine backgrounds, the team has come up with an aperitivo pairing cocktails with small plates.

The creations tell stories of journeys or pay tribute to the neighborhood. The Picaflor puts a new spin on the pisco sour, while other recipes take their names from the Enfants Rouges or Place des Vosges. The concept provides a through line for a menu that blends Parisian references with Mediterranean and South American influences.

The food menu extends the aperitif with sharing plates, from tartare to dishes inspired by the Italian aperitivo. The menu for groups includes a tonnato sandwich and eggs with horseradish mayonnaise.

Cocktails and food to share let guests put together an aperitif from several dishes. The venue remains a lively bar, but its private-hire options set it apart from simply stopping by for a drink.
