Summary: Creative cocktails & bites await.
Nestled in the heart of River North, Arbella stands out as a local favorite, boasting a nondescript entrance that leads to an intimate, sumptuous space. The bar area welcomes guests to mingle, while small booths provide a cozy setting for groups. Arbella isn't your typical bar; it's a cocktail lounge with a flair for the exquisite. The menu caters to various social settings, offering small bites, starters, and full plates with a prix-fixe option for those looking to indulge in a sampling journey. Highlights include crispy squash chips, a hearty chicken shawarma empanada, and taro tuna tacos with a kick of jalapeño aioli. The chicken bao and a unique Frenchman burger add to the eclectic offerings. But the real stars are the over 25 meticulously crafted cocktails, complete with show-stopping details like liquid nitrogen and imaginative presentation – the Tempo Bello with its grapefruit-infused gin served in a miniature glass bear is a testament to Arbella's commitment to an extraordinary bar experience.
