Good food and heartfelt service. Will definitely come again and recommend friends. The table was a little too small for us though.

The food was very good, though there seemed to be less variety than previously. The staff seems to be pushing pricier drinks more than usual. We declined request to eat on the patio, and the volume from the music was too high. Service was good as well.

Really enjoyed seating outside catching up with old friends. Deck was inviting and the noise level nicely low allowing for conversation. It was a slower night so staff was kind enough to let us sit there and chat after finishing our meal. Food was good but not 4 star, it could use some improvement. However,, I wont hesitate to return.

We have been to Acqua a few times this year. It’s been very good each time. This evening I enjoyed the summer 3 course dinner set very much. Others really enjoyed the prime rib special. The house wine is 1/2 price on Wednesday’s. We had a very nice cab/merlot blend. The service was great. Very friendly, efficient and accommodating. We will continue to enjoy Aqua and would recommend it to everyone.

What a enjoyable Fathers Day Brunch. The servers Victoria and Marco were amazing as well as the Managers. There was a live band that many people myself included danced to. The familiar face’s actually made this feel like a family function. I will keep coming back supporting the Burnaby community. Thank You, had a great time.
