                    Perfect evening. We sat outside and were very comfortable. We shared the baked oysters which were delicious. Next we both had the sea scallops which are a mainstay on their menu and they did not disappoint. Portions are generous but not overwhelming. For dessert we shared a crème brûlée. Our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable. The manager checked with us twice to make sure all was well. Eating out has become very expensive but at Aqua Grill you get quality for your money.

                    I probably won’t go again on a Saturday night. Kitchen and bar service was very slow. Food and atmosphere have always been amazing on other nights but maybe this was a one-off.

                    It was a lovely evening. The meal was fantastic and the ambiance as well. And who knew our server could also sing an Italian Aria of Happy Birthday for me and have the entire crowd clapping afterward! He was simply spectacular! Dinner is definitely better than lunch there, in our opinion. Highly recommend!

                    Seated immediately and had great service. It was Valentine dinner. Food was delicious, I had tuna and husband had chicken. We had key lime pie for dessert. Was never rushed and with appetizers, entrees, desserts and 3 drinks the cost was around $160. Will definitely return. Breana was our server.

                    Disappointing Valentine's Day lunch due to poor service, non attentive wait staff. It appeared they were not well staffed for the large lunch crowd. A restaurant we frequently go to that we're taking a hiatus from.

                    It was Feb 14 a valentines lunch with 4 friends. Our waitress couldn't be nicer but service was slow due to the busy lunch hour. We didn't mind as it was a leisurely lunch. The restaurant was filled !
