Review Summary

Aqua E Farina presents a cozy, romantic Italian dining scene with generous portions and a menu that centers on fresh, flavorful pasta and classic dishes. The kitchen earns praise for burrata, lasagna, calamari, fettuccine funghi e tartufo, and tiramisu, with guests noting the option to customize pasta and the appealing ambiance. Service is described as warm and attentive on most visits, though a few experiences mention slower or inconsistent service, delays with drinks, and higher charges during busy events. Overall, many reviewers enjoy the authentic flavors and good value, especially in brunch and table d'hôte settings, and plan to return to explore more dishes.

J'ai commander des lasagnes & ma mère des pâtes au pecorino. Les lasagnes étaient assez sèches & la « sauce tomate » qui les accompagnait en dessous était très acide & écoeurante, on aurait dit une sauce en boîte pas chère . Les pâtes au pecorino étaient également assez sèche, & manquaient énormément de goût.
La bruschetta était pas mal.
La deco est joli mais les chaises en plastique font un peu cantine d'école.
Pour un total de 80 dollars sans boisson je ne reviendrai pas.

What an amazing little find! We must have walked by this place a hundred times. If you like Bistro America you will enjoy this place, great food, & the patio is beautiful in the summe

Je m'étais pris quelque peu en retard pour une réservation en ce dimanche de Fête des Mères, alors que je devais réserver une table pour quatre (4) dans un resto dans de ce coin de la ville. Parmi les quatre, une grand-mère & une arrière grand-mère. J'ai opté, sans être trop sûr de mon coup, pour Aqua E Farina, où il était encore possible de réserver. Finalement, ce fut un coup des plus heureux. J'avais, entre autre, quelques doutes sur la salle à manger, située dans un «quart» de sous-sol. Ces doutes ce sont vite évaporé. La salle à manger est des plus propres avec une belle décoration, simple & efficace. Dès notre entrée, nous avons tous trouvé la place très très sympathique. Tout le monde a commandé des plats de pâtes. J'avais commandé le même plat que celui qu'avait commandé une des convives. Moi, j'ai beaucoup apprécié mes pâtes «très» al dente, alors que l'autre convive les a trouvé «trop» al dente. Malgré cela, n'ayant pas tout mangé, elle s'est quand assuré d'emporter les restes...

On a pris une bouteille de vin, un Chianti Ricasoli. Excellent ! Le prix, très raisonnable.

Le service était excellent. Très sympathique.

Il n'est pas du tout dans mes habitudes de laisser des commentaires sur un restaurant que j'ai fréquenté. Mais notre groupe, on ne parvenait pas à s'expliquer le faible achalandage de ce restaurant, en cette soirée de Fête des Mères. On était arrivé tôt, vers 5h. On était seul. Pas de surprise, là. Mais quand on a quitté, à 18h30, que le tiers des tables étaient occupées. Pas normal ! Cette place mérite beaucoup mieux.

Quaint & romantic spot for authentic Italian food, fresh & flavorful.

We went for Valentines & there was a Table d'hôte spécial. We opted for À la carte. Excellent Burrata. Excellent Lasagna. Chicken parm was also cooked to perfection. & generous portion meals.

The service was mediocre, busy night certainly due to the event. Not sure if typical or not. But waitress never brought us our drinks or sharing plates. Still very welcoming & kind however.

Would return to try other pasta for sure.

Les pâtes de mon rigatoni étaient trop cuites. La sauce aux tomates n'avait rien d'exceptionnel incitant à finir le plat. Le petit cannoli était coulant mais il avait bon goût.

Even though I heard good reviews to this restaurant I was very disappointed the charges were over the top we had three kids under the age of 12 they charged 50. Each & that was disappointing will not recommend to anyone…..today restaurants take advantage of covid & have runaway prices

I had such a wonderful experience at this restaurant! I tried the Calamari, Fettuccini Funghi e Tartufo, & Tiramisu-all were absolutely delicious, full of flavor, & beautifully presented. The service was warm & attentive, & I loved that they even made a drink specifically to my taste. The cozy atmosphere made the whole meal even more enjoyable. I'll definitely be coming back to try more dishes!
