Food and Service are very good. I love getting the salad with the fried oysters. The spicy dressing is delicious.

Great place right on the water/marina. We like to sit outside or near the windows. Good food, good service, great beer selection, nice bar area, and there is a small ice cream shop embedded in the same building. Fish and chips and burgers are our favorite things to get there. They are only open seasonally.

Love their Cobb salad! Ingredients are always fresh and it’s consistently delicious. Pumpkin ale with the cinnamon sugar rim was so yummy. The waitress gave us great service!

The fireplace is beautiful. Love the atmosphere and vibe of the place: warm and cozy. Our wait staff (Mel) was ever so attentive and friendly!!!The food and drinks came fairly quickly and they were delicious. We didn't expect the large portions!

The location in the marina is fun. The marina location is fun, they have some interior water view tables and some outdoor tables on the dock. Great place for happy hour and hors d'oeuvres. Our dinners were just ok- Filet sandwich and Baja Taco. If you live along the shoreline and looking for dinner there are far better places. If you are visiting you want a great dinner/ look elsewhere.

Great view, great service, great food selections. Great teamwork with all staff. Bisque and chowder awesome, buffalo shrimp app so-so, seared salmon terrific and the grilled vegetable medley with it was awesome. Great broiled fish plate! Great Bloody Mary too!!

Lobster roll should not be served in a bulkie Italian style roll. Too much bread, it was dry and was difficult to taste butter and lobster appeared to be dry as well.Fettuccine with seafood was delicious and made up for mediocre lobster roll.Cocktails are always great!Friendly, efficient service ?

Yummy yummy food! The lobster bisque and homemade ice cream was to die for! The staff was very nice and made you feel very welcome. Prices were definitely reasonable. I would recommend this place 100%! So

The BEST Seafood Bisque I have ever had! I literally wanted to lick my bowl so I didn’t leave a drop. The owner was so nice and chatted with us for a bit. If I am ever back in this area, I will definitely go back.

Can’t recommend this place enough!! Had the best seared salmon of my life here. Wish we lived closer we would be regulars. Ambiance is elegant yet comfortable, staff is friendly and welcoming, everything we ordered was beyond expectation. They also make their own ice cream. All this with a beautiful view of the water. 10 stars !

We felt very positively about our experience! The staff was friendly and accommodating. Cocktails were great. There was something on the menu for everyone and every one loved their food. What more could one ask?

Being on marina was great. Can't say my mussels were out of the ordinary. My friend wanted only French fries and she said they used to be homemade. These were not.

We (party of 4) thought we would try Rock's Aqua. What a disappointment. For starters we tried the chowder. It arrived luke warm and rather tasteless. I ordered the blackened swordfish as did 1 other of our party. My piece was noticeably thicker but when I tried using my fork to separate the filet I found something hard. My knife revealed a semi frozen interior with a gelatinous texture. Ugh! The fries looked and tasted as if made hours earlier while the sprouts were too hard to cut never mind eat. Ultimately, they didn't charge me which was fair but I honestly cannot say anything else positive regards the food. To be fair the party who had the fried oysters thought they were delicOur waiter was friendly and apologetic to some extent. We had driven down from the Hartford area with great expectations.

Slooooow service in the dining room. The bar area seems better. Sticky tables. The place has been going down hill for a while. Our waitress took forever to take our order, bring drinks, and even take our credit card payment. We had to go to the bar to pay, and when she finally came around and we told her that we were waiting a while, she said "it wasn't that long" !!! In all, an unpleasant experience.

Such a laid back place. Always enjoy the service, staff are super friendly, thank you Brinley for such pleasant service and a warm smile. Opted to go seafood today, clam strips, haven't had them in ages. So looking forward to gobs of tartar sauce, yes I like the sauce more than the clams. I was sad that they didn't have traditional tartar sauce, wasn't a fan of what they had; But Brinley offered some chipotle ranch which did the trick. I also recommend not using the sweet potato fries as the bed for the clams. I squeezed the lemon on my clams and had lemon flavor potato fries. Not bad, but.... Will always enjoy going to aqua, great vibe and great staff. Their drinks are amazing. I had the kickin mule and weatherboy friend had a pina colada thing. We both forgot the name.
