  Nice place... it's trying to be a big city bar, which it succeeds at when it comes to decor.  There are two stories plus a nice little rooftop area. There are no lines like the hottest clubs in LA or Vegas and the dress code keeps the patrons mostly classy. However,  the dance floor had a noticeable lack of energy on the Friday night that I went. What's really nice is the you can move freely from Aria to MUSICBAR SUSHI next door, which has a sushi bar, drink bar and the DJ spins mostly 90's hip-hop.

  Aria is my uber favorite club when I'm visiting my hometown. It's a gorgeous modern place where you have to dress nicely to get in, act classy to stay in, and patronize their bartenders to get out. Great mix of music to dance to, delis drinks, and gorgeous people!
  
  The first floor is a dance and meeting space. The second floor is a lounge that overlooks some of the dance floor downstairs. The rooftop lets you take in a bit of the Corpus bay and downtown. There is a smoking/cigar area behind the dance space on the first floor.
  
  The problems that exists there are: pricey drinks (which is why I took down a star), and it doesn't get crowded until 11 p.m. or even midnight (which is not something I entirely blame on Aria). Come on people! Let's go dancing!!!

  I agree with the other reviews of this place. You do get that Miami/Vegas vibe when you come here but for me, only the roof top gave me that vibe. This place has 3 party sections: The Dance floor which is the first floor, 2nd floor had more of a bar/lounge vibe, and my favorite, the roof top. You have a great view of downtown Corpus Christi, another DJ set, two bars, and tables if you plan to do bottle service. I do however give a 3 STAR on drink prices. A bit too pricey for me. If you want to save a little money on drinks I suggest go back downstairs and head to stereo bar which is next door and get drinks at that bar.
  
  I was in a t-shirt, khaki shorts and loafers so was a bit skeptical about being up to dress code but the door guy let me in. However I did feel a bit underdressed because all the guys were wearing nice jeans and a button up.

  Aria Lounge is one of a kind, a Miami style club and lounge just a few miles from Padre, in the heart of Corpus Christi.  The venue is perfect for weddings, bachelor and bachelorette parties or any celebration.  The party I attended was catered by Blake Patterson, whose cullinary services I highly recommend.  Each bar was stacked with every beverage you could think of, a rapidly expanding beer and wine selection and the sky lounge is way better than Sky Bar in Houston. Next door and connected to the lounge is The Sushi Bar, staffed by top chefs. Thank you Aria Lounge for a great experience

  Aria is one of the best clubs I've ever been to.  And I've traveled all around the world.  Though you might not expect to find something of this caliber in Corpus Christi, Texas...it's refreshing that people are trying to top quality businesses to small markets like CC.  Yes, Aria enforces a strict dress code, but so does every other nice club north of San Antonio.  People who don't gain entry just have sour grapes about being denied at the door.  This is exactly why I love this club, because it provides an awesome and clean environment. You can get dressed up nice and go be around other people who are dressed up nice. It's not like the dress code is that strict, you can wear shorts, you don't have to be in a collared  shirt; you just have to look presentable. The dress code is stated clearly outside the door.  My favorite thing about Aria is that it has a separate lounge that  has quiet lounge music so you can actually have a conversation AND it's smoke free.  best club in CC, hands down!
