The Living Room Wine Café & Lounge is officially open in the former Armitage space at La Encantada shopping center, located at 2905 E Skyline Drive.

The 3,000 square-foot space feels intimate with a large bar, curtained nooks and comfortable seating.

“The Living Room is truly the modern day neighborhood hangout; it’s a chill lounge with great food,” says Tom Kaufman, owner. “We are thrilled to bring this concept to Tucson.”

Wine is the restaurant’s pride and joy, with 35 varieties of vino and sangrias by the glass, and a list of handpicked wines available by the bottle. Happy hour specials feature an ever-changing selection of exclusive boutique wines.

If you aren’t as enthusiastic about wine, you will appreciate the full bar offering beer and cocktails.
