"Gabby" Birthday to Steven Pellegrino, Sr.!

Steven Pellegrino, Sr., the man behind Il Bacio Restaurant & Lounge and PRIME, has thrown the people of South Florida some of the hottest parties we have ever seen. 

It was only fitting that, for the big guy's birthday, we go all out with a Summer Circus-themed Birthday Bash worthy of Il Bacio's off-the-chart event roster.

So, for the past week, Gab worked in secret to plot the perfect birthday, including smuggling an oversize paper birthday cake into the office for Steven's wife, Jackie, to decorate.

On Saturday, May 14, we finally were able to pull out all the stops, kicking off the evening with a hilarious James Brown fire performance before presenting dangling aerialists, fireworks courtesy of Steven Pellegrino, Jr., and - surprise! - a beautiful woman leaping out of a birthday cake and launching into a dance and fire performance act for a very surprised Steven.

As always, DJ Brett the Hitman kept the crowd going until we couldn't dance anymore, providing the soundtrack to yet another unforgettable night.

The party never ends when you're working with the Pellegrinos!

"The Circus" 2-Year Anniversary Celebration at Il Bacio

"The Circus" rolled into town on Wednesday, April 27, celebrating Il Bacio's second year as Delray’s premier venue for nightlife, entertainment and dining with over-the-top entertainment worthy of The Big Top.


The much-anticipated event lived up to its high-flying expectations as more than 500 South Florida revelers partied the night away, their senses captivated by the dazzling and sultry circus-inspired acts and pulsating sounds of DJ Brett the Hitman.


Sponsored by Ketel One Vodka, "The Circus" kicked off with Harlequin Stilt Walkers, a nod to vintage acts of days past, and the incredible Goatman, who roamed the courtyard inviting intrigued guests to the join the party.


As a seductive belly dancer and her curious snake slithered through the crowd, guests were treated to sensational aerialists and gravity-defying performances from suspended silks.


The night heated up with incredible fire performers, and culminated with a spectacular violinist that blew the crowd away with his rock solos.

The only thing to do after such an unforgattable event? Start planning for next year!
