Evenings that stay with you are intentional, never manufactured, unfolding through the smell of herbs and cedar, low light, and music that finds the room.

Convivio draws on the tradition of the private salon—where poets, painters, and curious people left a little changed—bringing that spirit into homes across the Bay through food, live music, and the art of letting the night take its own terms.

Chef Michele and cellist/composer Michael follow the energy of the room to create something specific to your space, your guests, and your moment. You invite the people; Convivio handles the rest.

Convivio is for those who believe that being together is enough of a reason. Where the moment defines the menu, and the room defines the setlist. We create the space where everyone feels free — to enjoy the company, to step in, or simply to be there. The evening takes shape around the people in the room.

    A rustic kitchen scene featuring glass jars of sourdough starter on a wooden table, with a notebook filled with handwritten recipes, a brown bowl of flour, and a beige fabric apron, illuminated by soft natural light from a window.

    You reach out

    Tell us about your space, your guests, the feeling you want. Or tell us almost nothing — and let us ask the right questions. We'd like to know a little about the people in the room, and why this gathering matters right now.

    A rustic outdoor market stall displays an array of fresh produce including vibrant tomatoes, leafy greens, and a variety of olives, set against the backdrop of a picturesque rural Italian village.

    We study and prepare

    We source, we think, we bring our collection of objects and ideas gathered from different places and different lives. Some things are planned. Most things are kept open. We arrive before your guests do, the broth is on the stove, the candles and the aromatics are warming the space.

    A person in an apron uses a wooden peel to place a freshly baked loaf of artisan bread into a rustic, wood-fired oven, with a flickering fire visible inside, set against the backdrop of a sunlit kitchen.

    The evening unfolds

    Food and drinks come when they should. You and your guest can choose to step in, cook something, share something, play something. The music reads the room following wherever it goes. Enjoy the night with the people you invited. The evening is yours to shape.

    A rustic outdoor dining table set with wine glasses, cutlery, bread, and olives sits amidst lush vineyard rows, with a historic Tuscan villa in the background under a serene sky, capturing the essence of a picturesque Italian countryside landscape.

    You leave

    With more than you arrived with — a conversation still going somewhere, a person known a little better, something that will take a few days to fully land.

Man in apron stands in rustic kitchen, hands dusted with flour.

Michele and Michael don't follow a script — they follow the room. A conversation that needs a quieter background. A moment that calls for something warm from the kitchen. A group ready to gather around something. They sense it, and they respond. Before the evening, they learn what matters to you — the people, the tone, the feeling you want. During it, they adjust in real time. A dish that arrives at exactly the right moment. A shift in the music when the room shifts. A suggestion that feels like it came from the evening itself. You set the tone. They hold it.

Convivio is for anyone who believes that gathering is an opportunity.

For the people who wants to feel something real, for the small group of friends ready for an evening with a different quality of attention. For the curious minds who believes that sharing moments is one of the last ways to live real exchange.
