Arros QD

Both floors taken together: the ground-floor dining room and its bar around the wood-fire stove, plus the first floor with its own bar and two private rooms. The largest configuration the restaurant offers, and the only one that opens the whole building to a single party.

The ground floor, taken on its own. Open-kitchen seating runs along the six-metre stove, with burnt-orange banquettes, Persian rugs and street windows screened by hanging greenery. A bar within the room handles the reception before guests sit down.

A first-floor private room named for its chandeliers, panelled in oak and hung with framed prints above blue and green velvet banquettes. It takes daylight through the day and has its own bar, and it is the one space at Arros QD with speakers of its own.

Also listed as the Private Dining Room: a glass-walled first-floor space with street windows on one side and lit shelves of terracotta vessels on the other. It runs as a day room for meetings and presentations, then turns to dinners and standing receptions in the evening, and can be paired with the upstairs bar.

The semi-private cocktail lounge off the main dining room, and the darkest room in the building: marble café tables, red velvet, a backlit bar and taxidermy birds in arched niches. Daylight reaches it through the ground-floor windows; by evening it works for aperitivo before dinner or a drink after it.
