AQUA by El Gaucho

Always wonderful!

Great armousphere and perfect service.

Our only Seattle 5 star restaurant. Tory, Bob, and staff served a Delicious Dinner.We were well taken care of along with entertaining piano music. Thank you for helping make this a special evening. Kid-friendliness: Burger, Fries, Mac n Cheese

I feel like this is a pretty underrated seafood option in Seattle. They have a wine list with great value buys, solid appetizer and entree dishes, some that you would find at Gaucho, same ownership... plus a really nice view.

Came here for dinner and it was such a great experience. As soon as we entered they offered to take our coats and get us seated. The service was great. The service charge is built into the bill and the staff really works so hard. Rachel who was our waiter was amazing! Her tableside old fashion and Ceasars salad were fun to watch and she was great as well. I'd come here again to try a their special and for that stellar service.

Ambiente agradable

Alex was very personable! Over the course of the meal we were able to talk about an upcoming trip he was going on to our home town and places we always recommend to people coming to visit. The food was fantastic which was no surprise. 2 of Aquas sister restaurants are in our town so the quality is never a concern. We were very pleased with the variety Aqua provided and went with fish dishes because our town is landlocked so getting good seafood is not as common at home. The atmosphere was very relaxing with a live pianist and low lighting so we could see the lights of the houses across the water and the ferries go by. Hardest part was probably finding the place because it is way in the back of a large building and we missed the sign the first time we were looking for it. Vegetarian options: They remember they had multiple options, I ended up deciding to not try one. Parking: We were aware they had valet parking but opted to park in a paid garage because we wanted to walk around other businesses and go to the aquarium before dinner. The paid garage we parked in gave us a fright because the entrance we used was closed up after 8 pm and we had to find the 1 remaining open entrance in a large lot to get my car back. Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is on the ground floor and there are ramps and wide walkways to every part of the restaurant.

Small portions , proteins are tough, service is slow , not romantic place at all

Top sirloin passed off as filet but, the real disappointment was the overcooked lobster tail both served cold. Atmosphere and service were outstanding. Martinis & oysters were very good.
