Arco Cafe & Lounge Reviews
Went there two days in a row, great place to relax and have a glass of wine 🍷
The staff is super friendly 😎👍
Chic, sophisticated, and absolutely, and by far, the best cocktails in town. Our waiter Andrew, was well versed on the menu and the cocktails ingredients.
Arco Cocktail Lounge is a must! Try the Channel No. 6. This cocktail is perfect and well balanced.
Our first time at Arco. Fantastic drinks and charcuterie with amazing river views in a classy atmosphere! All staff were knowledgeable and prompt. Martinis and Manhattans were on point!

Arco Cafe & Lounge is a popular restaurant in Savannah known for its beautiful lounge atmosphere and great views, especially if seated outside or by the window. Visitors appreciate the inviting and stylish setting, making it a perfect spot for a night out or a relaxing dinner. The restaurant offers a menu inspired by elevated New American cuisine, featuring unique flavors and a creative spin on traditional dishes. Guests often enjoy dishes like the Caesar salad, charcuterie board, and shrimp and grits, which is praised for its delicious flavor and added touches like a hint of lemon and grilled tomatoes.
The cocktail selection is also notable, with creative spins on classics and some original drinks. The matcha, especially the banana pudding matcha, is highly recommended. The service has generally been praised for being attentive and personable, with staff members like Jack and Levi earning positive reviews for their friendliness and care, including catering well to allergies and making guests feel at home.
However, some recent changes have impacted the dining experience. The removal of favorite small bites such as burrata bread and filet bites has disappointed longtime visitors, making the menu feel more generic. Service quality has also varied, with some guests noting distracted staff or less engaging service, though newer bartenders show passion for their work. Despite these shifts, many still find Arco to be a good-to-great dining spot, especially for its atmosphere, view, and drinks. The restaurant faces the challenge of reinventing itself without losing what made it special, but remains a must-visit for those seeking a stylish place to enjoy good food and drinks in Savannah.
