Join ARO’s 2025 TTG Challenge! – Get Rewarded For Dining Out

For the socialites and adventurers who prefer dining out instead of ordering in, we think you should get rewarded for it — ‘cause why not? So, that’s what we’re doing at ARO.

ARO – All Restaurant Offers is the only app dedicated exclusively to restaurant experiences and events. We use AI to personalize all restaurant happenings to each individual user, so when you’re planning your next meal out, you’ll get recommendations tailored directly to your tastes. And if you’re in the mood to mix things up, we’ve made it easier than ever to discover your next favorite spot.

As an Executive Chef Sponsor of this year’s Taste the Gables (TTG), we’re excited to roll out something special for our local and visiting diners: The TTG Challenge — a.k.a. the fun way to eat out and earn rewards for doing it.

What exactly is the TTG Challenge?

Think of it as a culinary scavenger hunt — but less running around and more sitting down to eat.

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Download the ARO app and register your profile.

Step 2: Start the challenge from your home feed or profile page and book your first spot from the list of participating TTG restaurants.

Step 3: Dine at any three of those restaurants during the month of July.

Step 4: Scan the ARO QR code found on the TTG menu at each location to officially check-in in the ARO app.

Once you’ve completed your third check-in, you’ll unlock a reward — usually something like a complimentary appetizer, drink, or dessert, and it’s totally on us.

Pro tip: When you get to level 2, we’ll have an early treat for you (and we promise it won’t be another bad rhyme!). Refer the challenge to one of your friends, and we’ll let you skip the line to level 3!

ARO is a family tech start-up built by a group of siblings who were tired of digging through cluttered feeds and outdated websites to find something as simple as a good happy hour. So, we built the platform we wished existed.

ARO is the new and fun way to stay in the know about all the restaurant happenings in your city — from chef collabs and limited-time menus to weekly events and neighborhood staples.

The TTG Challenge is just one example of how we’re working to bring that to life, and we get to partner with some of the best restaurants in Coral Gables in doing so. Restaurants participating in the TTG Challenge have options for any vibe – from the best lunch special to Michelin Guide recommended hits.

Whether you’re a regular in the Gables dining scene or just looking for a reason to try somewhere new, this is your sign to start. The TTG Challenge runs all month, and all rewards will stay active through August— so grab a friend, make your reservations, and let ARO treat you for it.

Download the app, join the challenge, and eat your way through the Gables.

See you at the table!
