Acqua di Dea offers excellent food that leaves a lasting impression. The professional service is commendable, with friendly staff who are eager to ensure guests are happy. The appetizers, such as tuna and carpaccio, are astounding, and the gnudi and sea bass are also amazing. The restaurant's menu is seasonal and includes salads, hot and cold appetizers, pasta, seafood, and other meats. The food is well cooked and flavorful, sometimes with an artistic touch rather than traditional Italian style. The octopus is grilled very well, and the crab raviolis are divine, with the perfect sauce. The menu features on point drinks, and the staff is passionate about explaining each dish in detail.
The ambiance is romantic and perfect for a special night out or celebration, with thoughtful touches like birthday treats and photos. However, the atmosphere is not very intimate, partly due to cigar smoke wafting from porch diners, and the noise level can be high, especially with patio doors open, making conversations difficult. Guests may notice that seasoning can be inconsistent, with some dishes needing more salt or acid, and the bread is considered mid. The servers and manager are attentive, striving to make every visit memorable—they even bring complimentary bread with house-made sauces and sometimes offer complimentary cocktails or cover the cost of entrees if needed.
Overall, Acqua di Dea provides a consistently impressive dining experience with a warm, romantic atmosphere, though it may not be perfect in every aspect.
