Acquafarina is an easy recommendation. Why? In a word - excellence. The team is a pleasure to interact with; they remember you, are always courteous and helpful, and the food is consistent. Consistency is a lot harder than it sounds. Excellence is easy if it's occasional, but delivering consistently excellent service alongside exceptional food takes skill and teamwork. We love the bar and ambiance. Highly recommended.

Five girlfriends celebrating birthdays together. Beautiful, classy ambiance. Our server was top notch. We went here for pre dinner cocktails and a small snack. Her drink suggestions were appreciated. The complimentary flutes of bubby were a nice surprise. We will all definitely return.
