Established in 1996, Acqua Ristorante combines classic and innovative Italian cuisine in a lively, elegant atmosphere. Owner-operators Matteo, Giuseppe and Luciano Ingrao's passion for food is evident in the selection of the finest ingredients and in the careful detail of food preparation. Patrons can enjoy classic pasta dishes such as Linguine Vongole, linguine pasta with baby clams, roasted garlic, extra virgin olive oil and white wine. The more adventurous patron can partake in a trendier selection such as Crispy Seared Red Snapper over a Porcini Mushroom and Spinach Risotto. A versatile wine list features exciting Italian and California wines designed to enhance the dining experience. Wines are carefully chosen to match the chef's cuisine.

Bar patrons enjoy a full, spacious bar with live music Wednesday through Saturday nights.
