We were there for brunch yesterday. The food was excellent! However, it took over an hour to receive our food. We were the first ones in the restaurant by about 15 minutes. Not sure what the problem was.

Server was excellent and I could tell she felt bad.

We absolutely loved our evening out at Aqua & Farina. The portions were generous, the meals themselves were all fantastic and the service was friendly, engaged, and their recommendations about the cocktails, wine, or dishes were spot on. (Special props for the chardonnay that I had with my lobster dish btw)
I started with the polpete; three substantial veal meatballs that could easily have been a person's complete meal. They were delicious, light in texture, and every bite harmonious.
I followed this with the lobster fettucine which again was a happy discovery. Hints of garlic and citrus played off the lobster beautifully and the wine that was recommended was in perfect accord. I was impressed. Very impressed.
My seven other friends also raved about their choices. The lasagna earned the crossed-eyes of bliss from two of my friends, the mushroom and truffle pasta actually stopped one of my friends from talking for about five minutes.
We were a large group so I can't report on the other meals on the far side of the table but as we all said our goodbyes everyone was in agreement that they had all had an excellent meal. Food comas ensued.
Grazie Mille!!

Overpriced. Soggy Caesar salad ( with chicken $26!!!) Ravioli and penne with mushrooms 100$ with tip. Food nothing exceptional. Can do same at home
Service VERY slow., one waiter on a busy, sunny, Sunday afternoon. Will not be going back....offered us complimentary glass of prosecco- nice touch.

I’ve been here before and the food is just okay - not authentic Italian. We decided to give it another shot but the waitress had a really poor attitude. Will not be back.

We were seated for 10 minutes without any service. We finally got two empty glasses for water and a menu, no water though!

When we asked if we could order after being seated for a bit, the waitress quipped back “can you wait a minute” in a snarky tone.

While I have no issue with waiting, the lack of service and the fact that it was not busy and we weren’t able to even get water made us walk away.

Our party of three had the table d'hôte. Fabulous antipasti, extraordinary fresh pasta, great drinks, desserts to die for. Our only regret, not asking the name of the young lady who served us. Her charm alone is reason enough to go back. Kudos!

We had the lasagne. Was very nice.

Went three times and the food was very good, very well executed and well balanced every time. I also like that the ambiance is quite relaxed. The prices are somewhat high, but they remain acceptable considering the quality. I've had bitter tasting bolognese and poorly cooked pastas for the same price in other Italian restaurants, but not here so that's great!
