About this business

Acqua serves simple, fresh Italian food in a comfortable, neighborhood setting. Our menu includes classic antipasti, paste, and secondi, as well as light, thin-crust pizzas from our traditional wood-burning oven. We offer daily specials—many of them seafood, as our name suggests—and an intriguing selection of Italian wines by the glass and bottle. Our friendly staff welcomes parties of all sizes, from a romantic dinner for two to a casual family meal to a festive large gathering. We hope you will join us soon.

THIS PLACE IS GREAT!!!!!! – I've been going to this place for a while now and always enjoy myself. The place is very cozy. Nice bar. The staff is very friendly. The manager is amazing. I went with my grandmother recently and she said "it was the best pizza I've ever had". She was not exaggerating. My friend who is a chef absolutely loves the lasagna-I know a lot of people who do. I love the eggplant. They always have great specials. Great bread. The ravioli is a big hit. Very nice, affordable brunch on weekends. If you are g... read more

AMAZING DISHES – I went here on a date last week and was blown away. I had the Gnocchi and Mushrooms and almost licked the bowl - so amazing. Split the cheesecake with my date - I think i ate more of it then he did. Prices are not bad at all and its a great little quaint spot

Amazing Food! – I went here over the weekend for dinner and the food was out of this world. My daughter enjoyed the pizza, while my husband and I had a wonderful meal from beginning to end.

Awesome Italian Food! – Me and my girlfriend went to dinner at Acqua last night and had the Antipasto and I had the Chicken Parm which was out of this world. Excellent food and reasonable prices! Me and my girlfriend have already talked about returning because the food and service was 5 star all the way! Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!

Great time – A friend of mine lives right on Amersterdam Ave and told me I needed to try Acqua. So I took my girlfriend there the other night and couldn't have been more pleased. The staff was great, the food was better and we simply had a great night. I will def be going back to Acqua.

Very cute date spot – I'm not too sure about the negative reviews because I had a great experience. The joint is small, but it makes it nice and quaint, rather than a really large, trendy restaurant. I'd call the decore - rustic. They have an amazing wood burning stove right when you enter that makes you feel like you're in a little italian pizza shop. The staff was very friendly and welcoming - they made menu suggestions and boy were they right. The food was very fresh tasting and you could tell it was all made in house, wh... read more

Terrible Experience – My husband and I don't get to go out and eat that much, but as a former waitress, I have high expectations for how I expect to be served. We walked into this restaurant and the music was blaring- instant turnoff. They seated us at the very front of the restaurant, next to the host station. Our waitress never offered us water or the specials, and when we ordered our food, even though she repeated it to us, there was still a course missing at the end of the night. Our drinks were late, the food was okay, ... read more

totally depressing – I'm a pretty forgiving patron, but this place really tanked. Our first server vanished after taking our drink order, and a really unfriendly chick came and took it again, and eons later, a third person came back to take our food order, without the drinks... yeah, it was pretty much like that all night. I understand that things happen, but nobody was even remotely polite about all the problems - actually bordering on belligerent. My heart sank when I saw the pizza - when they say sausage and mushrooms, th... read more
