Get In the Holiday Spirit at These Pop-Up Bars Around Boston

On the South Shore, Italian restaurant the Venetian (owned by Eric Papachristos, who is also behind Boston restaurants Trade, Porto, and Saloniki) has decked out its dining room with thousands of sparkly holiday ornaments and festive greenery. Grab a drink, eat, and hang out amid the holiday cheer any night of the week — it’s open for dinner nightly, plus lunch on weekends, and the decor will stay up through January 31.
