Set along Allen Parkway, the speakeasy-inspired lounge divides its focus between a moody, music-filled main room and a dedicated tasting quarter. Guests gather over specialty pours like lychee and mango martinis alongside an interactive tableside s'mores dessert. For a more measured pace, The ARC hosts small-group cocktail tastings in a separate, intimate setting that stays sophisticated without feeling pretentious.
