I recently had the pleasure of dining at Aqua E Farina & I must say, it was an unforgettable experience that transported me straight to the heart of Italy.From the moment I stepped inside, the ambiance exuded warmth & authenticity, with rustic decor & soft Italian music setting the mood. The staff greeted me with genuine hospitality, making me feel like a cherished guest from the start. Now, onto the main event: the food. Every dish I sampled was a culinary masterpiece, bursting with flavors that danced on my palate. The menu didn't offer a lot of options but the one they have is amazing. Overall, my experience was nothing short of exceptional. Whether you're looking for a pretty dinner for two or a family celebration, this charming Italian restaurant is sure to delight your senses & leave you craving more. Grazie mille for an unforgettable dining experience!

I tried Aqua E Farina once, I liked the atmosphere & the wall paintings there, taking you to Italy & the past. They have good Italian dishes. I took gluten free gnocchi. It was good but a bit greasy for me. My friend took Caesar salad & a soup (can't recall its name) & they were tasty. The waiter was nice. All in all my experience was good. Go & give it a try as I saw they have many interesting Italian dishes😊

Found this cool spot hidden away in a basement, & it was surprisingly awesome. The menu isn't huge, but everything we tried was really tasty. It's got this peaceful vibe that's perfect for chilling out, & even though the service was still pretty good. Feels like a great place to bring the family for a nice meal without any fuss. Definitely worth checking out if you're into finding those not-so-obvious places.

Pleasant neighborhood restaurant. Great service & good food. Arancini, burata salad & chicken parmigiana were spot on.

Most underrated brunch spot in the city! Chicken & waffles were my favourite, with the French toast panettone a very close second. Going back to try the homemade pasta- the group next to us ordered from the lunch menu & it looked INCREDIBLE. Amazing experience from food to service, only great things to say about Aqua e Farina!
