Excellent
I am very surprised by the poor reviews. I have had nothing but wonderful experiences at this hidden gem. The atmosphere is subtle, and the service friendly. The food itself is of exceptional quality. This is not a "red sauce" Italian - this is the real deal, and the food is amazing. I have had two of the best pastas I have ever had here. My mom who is an Italian cook could not stop raving about the food. The apple dessert served with mascarpone ice cream is SUBLIME. So rich and subtle and not too sweet. The hazelnut gelato too is amazing. I look forward to my next visit!

subpar service mediocre food
We ate there last night. It too k about 10 minutes before anyone came to take our drink order and then about 15 more minutes before we received them. The food was just ok, nothing to write home about.

Worth The trip
If your in the downtown Seaport / Financial district and are looking for a good place to eat this is perfect. The quarters are tight but nice. I have seen complaints about the service but i have never had a problem and I've been there 5 or 6 times. Good food.

Lovely atmosphere. Great food.
Lovely atmosphere. Great food. I recommend all pastas and the Tagliata steak. Candlelit ambiance in one of the loveliest corners of the old New York.

Great Birthday memories!
Last week I celebrated my birthday with my close friends at Acqua. I always go there for lunch (i work nearby) so I decided to go there on my special day. It looks SO beautiful with candles in the night! we started with sparkling wine(the best thing for a birthday! :)) and some light appetizers. The crab salad was awesome! then each of us had a defferent pasta: ravioli, fetuchine, spaghetti with clams... Delicious! At the end of our dinner I got a cake with a candle as a compliment from the restaurant! It was so sweet of them! :))) I have warmest memories of my birthday!

Best authentic Italian in town.
Acqua at Peck Slip is now my favorite Italian in town. I just discovered it and i feel much better knowing that i can count on an authentic and healthy place near my new apartment in Fidi. I love their Pear Salad and the fish poached in white wine. The wine selection is wide and reasonably priced. Desserts are excellent! They don't seem to keen to deliver, thus i guess i'll have to fight my late evening laziness. Highly recommended.
