Ricardo SauerNovember 23, 2014Great food! Good prices. We really loved it! My dish was so good that I call the owner to praise him. Thanx for a marvelous afternoon.
Meredith HullApril 18, 2014Dishes were lovely. Lobster salad was presented beautifully and an incredibly generous portion. Mozzarella was fresh and delicious, rib eye sizzling and juicy, and tilapia sauce was smooth and buttery
Jorge DavilaSeptember 16, 2018The ribeye was great as well as the lasagna. A bit pricy, but it was worth it. Sparkling water was really tasty. The macchiato was excellent. Service was good overall.

Kevin SkobacOctober 4, 2017On a less trafficked corner of of the waterfront Acqua gets overlooked, but I'm always happy when I end up there for fresh homemade pastas.
Sandro LipariMay 13, 2017The new chef brought some delicious Italian classics to this little gem in Seaport. Get the Bufala on Wednesdays! It comes fresh from Naples
Patrick ButlerMarch 25, 2013Great food, great location. The owner was tres friendly and brought us an after dinner drink. I will defiantly return.
The Corcoran GroupAugust 5, 2010Our favorite dishes, start with the Bresaola Della Valtellina, then have the Linguini alla Vongole or the Panini con Prosciutto. The wine selection is fantastic.
Alice HillaryAugust 9, 2014Panini with mozzarella and prosciutto is fabulous. Everything is fresh,great bread. Service was relaxed and inviting.
Dot. HuangSeptember 24, 2018The linguine alle vongole was yummy. The host gave us some lemoncello at the end of our meal
chi shiJuly 6, 2014The affogato is a must! Espresso poured over hazelnut gelato with biscotti.. Heavenly. :)
Acqua, Felice, and Sole Di Capri are the three best Italian restaurants in FiDi, no question about it.- This is the best Italian restaurant in the Seaport/FiDi area, by far.
- Joe DJune 25, 2012The Chitarra pasta dish sounds 'simple' but is so complex and delicious. Great blend of the cheese and ground pepper
PersephoneMarch 19, 2011Wonderful service! Francesco is a doll and I would marry Chef Ciro! Try the crab avocado appetizer and if black truffle tortellini is on the menu, go for it!
Try the square spaghetti with tuna. Perfect al dente pasta and delicious spicy puttanesca sauce
Chandana MenonAugust 22, 2014Perfect for brunch, even with kids in tow. Have high chairs. Delicate, delicious food.
Michal KazimierczakMay 1, 2013Second time and the same opinion: the best Italian food downtown. Great food and service.- Rachel NashAugust 6, 2011Gorgeous cheese platter here, get a special for dinner and the hazelnut gelato in espresso for dessert.
Mirco PasqualiniApril 10, 2016The food quality is terrible! Nice environment but the worst food. A historic south street port restaurant with a kitchen completely in disarray.Review based on 3 visits in 3 months

"A “must visit”! Great view of Manhattan. It’s a very popular place for wedding proposals too, so you may be lucky to catch one - I did! Note: The pedestrian way from Brooklyn is a bit hard to find."
