This is a fun place for a different dining experience. The dishes are eclectic and the ones I had were a little rich for my taste, but they were excellent. I highly recommend the shrimp and grits and steak. The dark chocolate mousse was very good. It serves tapas style, so it can get expensive. However, the dishes we had were so filling that I believe one each would be sufficient for moderate appetites, if you plan on having some of the excellent desserts. The coffee was exceptional.
WENT TO THIS RESTAURANT FOR THE FIRST TIME ON MY WIFE AND I,S ANNIVERSARY IN JAN, THE FOOD AND THE SERVICE WERE 5 STAR, THIS IS TRUELY A GEM HIDDEN ON THE BACK STREETS OF BEAUFORT.THE FOOD IS GOURMET AND AWSOME AND THE HELP TRUELY PROFESSIONAL, WITH A TOUCH OF SOUTHERN HOSPITALITY! ANYONE WHO WANTS A TRUE ROMANTIC EVENING AND BE TREATED LIKE ROYALTY I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE AQUA RESTAURANT AS ONE OF THE MUST SEE PLACES ON THE CRYSTAL COAST, I KNOW ME AND MY WIFE WILL BE BACK IN JUNE AND MANY MORE TIMES!!!!!!!!
Just went here the other night with a fairly large group (8 people). Ordered eclectically, off the "Small Plates" section, and not one dish disappointed. I, personally, had the Veal Marsalla and Fried Goat Cheese, and my date tried the Carapaccio. Other ordered dishes were the crabcake, fillet, bento box, and firecracker shrimp. Dessert was a "huge" creme brulee, and a bananas foster. Everything was phenomenal, service was excellent, patient, and talented. I'll most certainly be back.
