The food was deliciousI could make a meal out of fresh bread and oil. Our entrees were generous and flavorful, we finished our meal with the tiramisu. So good!!

Came here for a large party. Salad was 100% arugula with three thin orange slices. Chicken fricassee was bland. I dumped a ton of salt on it and it was still bland. The breading was gummy and separated from the chicken. I think it came with maybe 6 green beans at the most. Fortunately the chicken itself was not horrible. It was fairly moist. People who ordered steak were disappointed. It was like maybe 2 ounces. Wasn't cooked how asked. Charred on one side, not cooked in the middle. No vegetables for those who ordered steak. Just a tiny steak and fries. There was a small amount of mashed potato with the chicken. Service was not great. For example, no one came around to ask how it was going. Took a long time to get food. No refills on butter or bread. One plate of maybe 5-6 balls of butter for like 8 people. Come on. When dessert was served, some at our table got sone but others did not for a long time. Some slices of dessert were huge. Others were tiny. No windows and kind of a dark loud room. Just seems like they are trying to save every penny while charging as of they aren't.

The atmosphere was good. Our service was not good at all. Our waiter was extremely slow. The food I was not impressed! 70$ for a strip steak that was flavorless!! A friend of ours had the burger had to 2 bites and stated it had no flavor and was overcooked.. then we ordered desert, and everyone got desert. One person with us ordered ice cream for dessert, took them a while to bring it out, and when they did, it was melted. I ordered an Irish coffee after dinner and waited 30 mins for it, but it never showed up. Most likely, I won't be back. $260 for me, my wife and 8 year old son. I and only I ordered one long Island ice tea that was pure vodka and a splash of tea a complete waste of a drink and money.and not for nothing if im paying 70 dollars for a strip steak I don't wanna see people walking around in sweat pants and hoodies like they just got out of bed!!! Definitely not what we expected, especially after paying the bill!!!

Food and server were EXCELLENT! Hostess on Saturday night was incredibly rude and condescending. Also not a good look for her to be chomping her gum while she's talking. As the first person I met and as nasty as she was to my guests and I we almost left. The food is as good as it was pre-Covid now so we will be back!

Came for Valentines Day dinner, got seated right next to the kitchen which was already disappointing given it was extremely busy and everyone was running by. Ordered the seafood platter appetizer, for $60 you would think you’d at least get your money worth. Crab legs were so small there was no meat even in them, no cocktail sauce was served with the shrimp or oysters, and no crackers to open the crab legs. The branzino dinner came out breaded even after being told it wasn’t and was the smallest piece of fish and a salty side salad. I’m not one to complain about going out to dinner and try to give every place the benefit of the doubt but for the price this was a really bad experience, will never go back.

Both my wife and I had an amazing experience. The food was delicious and we both agreed that the Beet and Burrata salad was one of the best salads we ever had. The service was great and the entertainment they had that night was excellent.

Dinner was nice at aqua,but the Galentines brunch on Sunday was terrible. Overpriced, menu itself was a sloppy jumbled piece of paper. The food was cold and tasteless and options were strange. Really pricey for breakfast. Also they advertised giveaways and we were there the first 3 hours of the event and nothing was given away. Restaurant was also freezing cold. Better breakfast at a diner. Several people got up and walked out nearby us without even ordering. The entrees included no sides, no breakfast meats, not even toast or fruit. Food was priced sky high and not even garnished or hot. I rarely give bad reviews but this was pretty disappointing.

I live around the corner and I am certainly grateful. The best part of Aqua Blu is the staff. Kane the bartender is a sweet angel. Speaking of angels - Mike & Juan who are servers, the absolute best. Saturday night DJ always a fun time. Have to mention Alexa too - she's awesome! Love this place, can't go wrong. Even have our family celebrations here.
