From the service to the subtleties of the food. Our food was beyond exceptional and flavorful.

The best I've ever eaten! Some of our food was great and some was okay. We found Aqua and we were not disappointed. Oh my what a find. We went to a few other places on the visit to Beaufort and most of the servers and bartenders did not wear a mask.Eat here several times per summer and it never fails!Our dinner was great.

Aqua’s small plates offer you an exciting array of tastes in
"just right” portions ideal for passing around the table or enjoying two or three as a full meal. A friend and I visited Aqua on a weeknight in September and had an excellent experience. And the desserts, WOW!! I just wished that the comment had not been made out loud.One of 2 great restaurants in Bfort, the other being Blue Moon.

Aqua is my fav though. The owner personally came around and greeted us which made us feel so welcome.

They are also known for their martinis but we passed on those.

She was superb. but I was very satisfied with my plates and my wine. Thank you! In good weather a large screened in porch. She forgot a couple specials and seemed a little nervous. Our server rarely checked on us, at 845p when we still had not received our appetizer that we ordered 30 minutes ago I asked about our appetizer and the server gave some excuse about there being a substitute chef which made no sense since the tables all around us were receiving multiple courses and orders of food as we sat there. There's a tasty blend of French, Italian, and Asian on the menu. Join us at Aqua Restaurant in downtown Beaufort for a great meal. The deconstructed Ceasar Salad was not only beautiful but delicious as well.

It sounds a bit odd but we would have ordered three if we could eat them all.

It was Memorial Day weekend, so it was definitely crowded, but unlike at some other local establishments, they weren't treating their customers like cattle to be rushed in and rushed out with little regard for the diner's experience.

FYI---we suggest you make reservations; this is a small but popular restaurant!Shrimp and grits is a game changer! Aqua Restaurant Restaurants, Seafood 114 Middle Ln.

Although it's a 30-35 min drive from where we vacation we make it a point to go for their amazing fried chicken and great BBQ.

We were told we could wait 20 more minutes for a table or sit near the bar. Our waitress could barely get through the crowd to us. And service was actually not the problem. Our server was amazing and the selection of food was wonderful as well. The food was delicious with lots of small plates to share around the table. Helped us navigate the menu and talked with the chef about my wife's allergy.
The portions are huge.

Although we were excited to try their desserts I asked for the check immediately upon the receipt of the meals not knowing how long that would take and we ate our dinners and left as quickly as possible and absolutely will not be back nor recommend this place. I've just had another truly wonderful meal there.

Everything I had was delicious, and although on the pricey side, it was worth every penny. We sat outside and it was a beautiful evening, patio was screened so bug free.

The food, as usual, was outstanding! As expected we had a great meal and felt safe.

Wow!

Other than her, it was a good experience. Staff was taking precautions and the tables outside where we sat were spaced. Medium rare steak to perfection and a surprisingly delicate blackened sea bass.
Sure it was crowded and busy, the Saturday of Easter weekend. Lovely interior with beautiful artwork and glass pieces.

I enjoyed the covered patio seating and our handsome male waiter, who was a cross between a surfer and a European model. Worth the wait though as they were delicious.

So well done the presentation was beautiful. Took the kids and they enjoyed themselves too. We had been going there for years, probably since around the time they opened (15 to 20 years ago). Treated us like old friends. There's a lovely and unique garden out front, a nice porch and a small but nicely decorated indoor eating space, plus a bar if you want to eat by yourself. Excellent food and service, and a nice variety of choices.
