CASA L'ACQUA Ristorante Italiano

We enjoyed a wonderful dinner! The Langoustine and risotto appetizer is fantastic as is the Fettucine Bolognese! The restaurant had a great atmosphere and our server, Cecilia, was the best! She was friendly and professional and helped us order well.

This place is special. Should not be over looked. Quality is exceptional. Environment is for a date night or quiet evening with friends.

A must. Don’t miss here.

Very disappointing. Two of us for a special occasion , had reservations and asked for a nice table, in the corner under an air conditioner. Last table. Waiter unfortunately busy yet hello! No wine or drink menu left on our table. Slow getting wine at the end of the restaurant hard to grab someone! Noise level was staggering. Second time there not impressed. Need to care for each of your customers. Regardless. Get more help if necessary.

Beautiful restaurant, food average at best

First time I have ever posted a review…..
This place was horrible. Food ok! Service horrendous!! Place was empty, would have thought they would be attentive and have excellent service. I paid for expensive water and poured it into my own glass. Shocked I got a server to even take the bill! I know it’s off season, but I still paid full season price and everything just sucked!

Went for first time. Not sure a restaurant can do much more wrong. Arrivedbefore 8 and valet lot was full so had to find parking in downtown Delray. Big issue. . They made us wait 20 mins for our table. They offered nothing or even an apology. We eventually had to change tables because one table of men were talking and yelling so loudly. Food pricing is extremely high. $49 for chicken parm which was average. Really ? . Wine pricing is even more outrageous with only a couple of $20 retail bottles at around $80. I do not generally write reviews but want others to avoid this mistake of a restaurant. Worst experience we have had in southern Florida

Went here for Fridday night dinner with my daughter. Call early to get desired reservation time. We had the lobster risotto special and branzino. Both mains were expertly prepared and very fresh. The service here is excellent. I would return in the future.

I am going to say my meal was excellent but looking at the bill the prices were ridiculous. Martini’s $27, coffee $7 the appetizers were $25. What is truly ridiculous is that the entree’s that several of us had Shrimp piccata and veal piccata for $49 did not even come with pasta and to get Pasta with it was another $13 …. Seriously for a $49 entree you can’t include 50cents worth of pasta?? 😂😂 This is a one and done for us.

There are places you go to eat… and then there are places you go to feel something.

La Acqua sits firmly in that second category.

If you’re just walking in, you might miss it the precision. The way the staff moves with intention, almost surgical. Nothing rushed, nothing forced. Just deliberate execution with one clear priority: the customer comes first. Not as a slogan… it’s baked into their DNA.

Then you hit the front of the house Cesar. Calm, dialed in, orchestrating the flow, managing reservations like a chess match, and setting the tone the second you walk through the door. He’s not just seating you he’s introducing you to the culture.

And then there’s Joe Bevilacqua… posted up at his eagle’s nest, working alongside his team getting his fish's ready greeting everyone with that knowing smile and nod. Old friends, new faces it doesn’t matter. You feel seen. You feel welcomed. That’s where it all begins.

Joe’s a Long Island guy who somehow brought that old-school hospitality down to Delray and made it his own. And you feel it everywhere in the room, in the rhythm, in the people.

The food? Hot. On point. No shortcuts. And the specials… forget it. You read the list and immediately want all of them. Decision-making becomes the hardest part of the night.

But what really hits is the consistency of care. The love. The pride. The authenticity. That’s rare.

I’ll just say it straight I love this place. And my friendship with Joe runs deep because the values are real. No act. No fluff. Just good people doing things the right way.

If you haven’t been… you’re missing something special.There are places you go to eat… and then there are places you go to feel something.
