| - Arpa's OK. It's a little over-done as far as the artwork and set-up of the place; it's not the most comfortable place and can get pretty crowded and loud with banker types. But it's a big space, so it can house larger groups and parties, which is nice. I went there recently with about 12 people, and we got a nice big circular table, which worked out great.
The food at Arpa is actually pretty good, although I can't say I was all that into the portion sizes (then again, i never am at Tapas places). You're paying a lot, it seems, for not a lot of food, but like I said, that might not be specific to Arpa.
Arpa does have a great selection of wines (all types) and some good drinks, too, and it definitely seemed like a hotspot as far as post-work drinks/early evening partying.
I ordered a special tasting menu, which was pretty good. Four different wines paired with 4 small dishes, so you really get, well, a taste for what the restaurant offers. I plan on going back in the future to check it more in-depth.
