Acqua Bistro 2751 South Ocean Drive, Hollywood, FL 33019

"We ate here for the first time today. What a hidden gem!!! We went at lunchtime. And ordered off of the lunch menu. I got spaghetti and meatballs and my husband got chicken parm. They each came with a side salad or ff. I had the side salad. It had a wonderful blend of fresh spinach, romaine and field greens. And it had cucumbers, shredded carrots, heirloom tomatoes and garbanzo beans. So fresh and so good. The bread they bring to the table is baked fresh so it's served warm. Crusty outside and soft melt in your mouth inside. Yum!!! The chicken parm was HUGE! And my husband said it was the best he's ever had anywhere. The spaghetti and meatballs were very good. The meatball just literally melted in my mouth! And I loved the sauce too. It's the smooth kind. Which I like. I don't like big chunks of tomatoes in my spaghetti sauce. Also the portion of spaghetti was HUGE! Even at lunchtime. Luis was our server and he was exceptional! Luis told us about sunset supers everyday from 4:30-6:00. Reduced prices on several of their menu items. I've included a picture of that menu. We will definitely be back.... many many times! Oh, Louis said to make a reservation for the dinner hours as they get really busy. This bistro is located inside the Aquarius condominium building. Drive up and they have vallet for $5."

"Great little Italian restaurant. Bread was good, soft and toasty. The salad was simple yet fresh. The calamari, shrimp, mussels, and clams from Pescatori Pasta were plenty. They provided great service and were very kind and focused. Without a doubt, I would eat here again. Oh, and there's a $5 valet parking fee. Not bad for a restaurant right on the beach."

"We had a great time both visits, dinner and lunch, my husband and I were staying in a resort nearby, and this little gem of restaurant gave us a great experience. Food is fresh and tasteful. You can taste the real ingredients and the quality and skills of the cook. Service was exceptional, portions were generous, and prices very reasonable for the area. I recommend it 100%"

"This place was a slice of heaven. I felt like I was at home in my grandma’s italian kitchen. The service was fantastic, they really cared what you thought and take pride in making their food homemade. The food was authentic. The bread was warm, the clams orgenata was to die for, the linguini in clam sauce was 10/10 and the lava cake was the best I have ever had. The prices were so reasonable. Wonderful little gem, must try"

"Great little Italian restaurant. Bread was yummy, warm abs soft. Salad was basic but fresh. Pescatori past was amazing and full of shrimp, calamari, mussels and clams. Service was excellent and they were super kind and attentive. I would definitely dine here again. Oh be aware there’s a $5 valet parking fee… not bad for a beach front restaurant."
