The Legendary AQUA Restaurant - Review by BloomSpot Editor

Located in the heart of San Francisco’s Financial District, AQUA occupies the ground floor of a restored, post-1906 earthquake structure on California Street between Battery and Front. AQUA easily qualifies as one of the most beautiful restaurants in the Bay Area - timeless, classic muted crème colors, exquisite woods, onyx and marble in the different furnishings.

Since 1991, AQUAhas been one of San Francisco's culinary treasures, winning the prestigious DiRona Award, two star ratings from The Michelin Guide and numerous notable awards the San Francisco Chronicle, Zagat, CitySearch, Gayot, and 7x7 Magazine.

AQUA's world-class contemporary seafood menu features exquisite French cuisine applied to fresh local and imported seafood selections, from tender scallops to fresh oysters, caviar and foie gras.

What people on Yelp are saying...

"I must say that I was very pleased with the creativity of Aqua. Not only are the dishes examples of interesting, playful juxtapositions of ingredients, the seasonal tasting menus are a draw all by themselves." - Dee C., Los Angeles

"I had one of the best meals of my life here. I am happy to say that I have had a fair number of pretty fantastic meals in my life... Truly innovative tasting menu, with perfect portions, gorgeous presentation, and excellent wine pairings... Pacing was perfect. We ate slowly, I never felt rushed, I never felt overly full, and I had time to sip my wine and chat. Service was impeccably attentive." - Heather G., San Francisco

'This is by far one of my favorite restaurants in SF. The atmoshphere is great, the service is great, and the seafood is always spot on and amazing!' - Helen B., New York, NY
