      Herringbone

      Aria welcomed Southern-California inspired seafood restaurant Herringbone last week.

      The business, which debuted Dec. 28, promises an “ocean-to-table concept” similar to the feel at the company's restaurants in California.

      The dining spot emphasizes that its lounge, live music and cocktails create a social dining experience, and the restaurant pairs “pristine seafood and responsibly sourced meat with Farmers Market produce,” according to a news release and the restaurant's website.

      The lounge opens at 11 a.m., and lunch is 11:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Dinner is 5 to 10 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 5 to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday.

      The business, at 9580 W. Flamingo Road, near the 215 Beltway, was sold, according to the restaurant's Facebook page.

      Further information on the sale was not immediately available.

      Sedona was in business for 13 years.
