    Acqua di mare
    Marlene A.

    My friends and I came here one evening and sat outside, it was a nice evening the outdoor patio was packed. Our server was very attentive and gave amazing recommendations. I ordered the crab cake and that was phenomenal one of my favorite dishes, the server also recommended us to get the sacchetti porcini and truffle which was an amazing recommendations and one of my favorite dishes. Lastly ordered the tiramisu with baileys and phenomenal one of our favorite Italian places for sure.

    Short Rib Pappardelle & Chilean Sea Bass
    Lien S.

    11.1.25 - been wanting to try this restaurant out and finally tried it! Was able to make reservations the day of. Tried to switch it to patio seating but it was already taken by the time I looked again. It's a cute little spot. Parking is always packed on the weekends in this area but I was lucky to find one nearby. Order: Old Fashioned x2 or 3 Other cocktail (don't remember which) x2 Prawn Cocktail Short Rib Pappardelle Chilean Sea Bass Everything was shared between two people. The appetizer was good. It's the same anywhere you get it. Both of the entrees were delicious! I loved the flavor of the short rib pappardelle sauce. The sauce on the sea bass was good too but out of two, I would choose the pasta. Kinda wished I had tried the cacio e pepe as well since they make that table side in the big cheese wheel. Will for sure get that as well as some other items next time!

    Acqua di Mare was exactly what we needed. We went on a double date and from the moment we sat down, the vibe was warm, romantic, and quietly special. This is the kind of place where you slow down without being told to. The cacio e pepe finished tableside in the cheese wheel was both a fun little show and genuinely delicious. Not gimmicky, just very well done. The seafood risotto was fabulous, rich and comforting without being heavy, and clearly made with care. What really stayed with me though was the kindness. When they learned we were still grieving the loss of my mom, they surprised us with a free order of cannolis. Completely unexpected and incredibly thoughtful. Food was excellent, but that gesture made the night unforgettable.

    Be transported to Italy... no passport required Tucked in downtown Chandler, Acqua Di Mare is the kind of place that makes you forget you're in the middle of the Arizona desert. From the moment you walk in, every detail is intentional--elegant, cozy, and effortlessly upscale without feeling stuffy. Indoor + outdoor dining Even in the PHX heat, the patio feels like a breezy Italian beachfront. By 5pm it's fully shaded, misters are on, doors are open, and soft Italian music sets the vibe. True Italian experience This is white tablecloth dining done right. Fresh plates and silverware with every course, impeccable service, and a team that hustles. Niko (the owner) is in the action--not sitting back--and Alex took incredible care of us. No freezers. Everything is fresh. They fly in their lobster. They fly in their meats. And yes... the 44oz A5 American Wagyu tomahawk from Durham, NC is as insane as it sounds. Tableside preparations (rare for this area!) - Tomahawk carved right in front of you - Fresh lobster prepared tableside - Pasta dishes finished in front of you - A unique, zesty tiramisu that's delicate and unforgettable That tomahawk? Two men shared it easily... and there was enough for a third. The vibe Think small Italian village energy--intimate, warm, and intentional. Even the artwork (hello Portofino vibes ) pulls you in. Small space = reservations are a must (They are expanding next door soon with a more casual bar + seating ) If you love elevated dining, fresh ingredients, and an experience--not just a meal--this place delivers. Support the mom & pops. This one is special

    Beef Wellington
    Amy R.

    We've been here twice now, and both visits have been fantastic! I usually stick to the same dish if I love it, but on our second visit we decided to mix it up and order family-style--and I'm so glad we did. We had the Caesar salad, the sacchetti porcini & truffle pasta, and the beef Wellington, and everything was absolutely delicious. The Wellington was especially impressive--I've had one at a Gordon Ramsay restaurant, and this one truly measured up! On top of the amazing food, the service is wonderful. The owner is incredibly welcoming, and our server was attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. Can't wait to come back and try more from the menu!

    The wife and I have walked by this place for years and always wanted to give it a try. However you pretty much need reservations to get a table at a decent hour. I finally bit the bullet and got later reservations for a Friday night at 8pm. The restaurant definitely had availability at that later seating. But would still recommend reservations. The cocktails were very good. Complementary bread was delicious. We started with the Octopus and it was cooked perfectly. My wife loved her Aqua Di Mare pasta and I really enjoyed my rigatoni. Can't wait to go back and try some of their other dishes!

    Gina drink. Perfectly balanced. Italian Breeze??
    Kenda V.

    Why: Our 20th Anniversary. Waited too long to decide where to go. Found Acqua Di Mare using Yelp. Only reservation for our specific 5:30pm Sat nite time slot was Patio. Nervously agreed. LOVED IT! Delightful cocktail & wine menu. Started with a perfectly balanced gin drink. Not too sweet. Not too citrusy. Had 3 to be sure Ceasar Salad crisp, lightly dressed, beautifully plated. Two perky anchovies hanging out for visual delight. Full bodied moist Bread w nice crust came in chunks, no annoying cutting board/knife & crumbs. Say "Yes" to the fresh basil & a small spoon of salt. Delish. Mains (no pics, forgot lol). 1. Chilean Sea Bass was luscious. Perfectly seasoned. Moist & fluffy. Wilted spinach & lightly whipped mound of potato were a great way to sop. 2. The pasta in the Parmesan Wheel is OffTheHook Good. Fresh pasta. Creamy rich but not oily. Full bodied flavor & texture. Husband added chicken, came roasted on the bone. Yum. Grand Finale: Cannoli Full disclosure, I dont even like cannoli. THIS one changed my mind. Outside crisp, flavorful. Filling Light! Fluffy! Just sweet enough to enjoy, not like the dense Frosting you find in most restaurants. Beautifully Plated - Every Dish! NOTE: During dinner we were already discussing what we were going to order on our Next Visit ......and the next after that!

    If I could give more than five stars, I would. Aqua Di Amare is hands down one of the best dining experiences in Chandler. I've been there at least 50 times, and every single visit has been consistently outstanding. Chef Leo absolutely delivers--every dish is crafted to perfection, full of flavor, and clearly made with passion. You can tell there's real pride in the kitchen. And Nicola, the owner, sets the tone for the entire place. His attention to detail and commitment to quality shows in everything--from the food to the service to the overall atmosphere. It's rare to find a restaurant that stays this consistent over time, but Aqua Di Amare nails it every single time. If you're looking for authentic, high-quality food and an amazing experience, this is the place. Highly recommend--you won't be disappointed.

    Pasta and cheese sauce with fresh shaved truffle
    Will W.

    This is a quaint Italian restaurant with a great outdoor porch. The pasta was fresh and the cheese sauce was made table side with fresh truffles shaved on top. The steak was baked in a pouch with vegetables. It was very tender and the vegetables savory. The service was impeccable with the waiter very attentive and well versed in wine.

    I tried Acqua Di Mare for the very first time last night and I was pleased! This restaurant has all the coastal Italian vibes--and dare I say the flavors seem authentic?--Yes, absolutely! Service was superb; our server was very friendly and attentive. He recommended the seafood risotto and the carbonara. My partner and I both truly enjoyed our dishes. We will be returning to try more dishes. Stop by and enjoy!

    Salad of the day - wedge with balsamic glaze and Parmesan cream dressing
    Luisa J.

    A cute spot with good pasta from what we tried. I came here with my bf for my birthday. We both ordered the Cacio E Pepe. I got mine with shrimp and he had his with meat balls. The pasta was delicious however, the price for this pasta without the proteins is a little over priced. At the end I had to order the tiramisu, but was disappointed. The cream had an orange flavor that I was not a fan of.

    Short rib pappardelle
    Ashley T.

    I didn't know about this place until my friend wanted to visit for a little celebration. My friend sold me on the "pasta made with a cheese wheel" that I'm sure many of us have seen on Instagram, so I definitely ordered the Cacio e Pepe. We had the calamari (fried squid) as an appetizer, it was gone in minutes! My friends ordered the Acqua Di'Mare and the Short Rib Pappardelle, both were delicious from the tastes I had. The cacio was decadent and wonderful, I probably should've had a protein with it but it was also just as well without one. I enjoyed watching the server prepare it tableside and he was happy to answer any questions we had. Overall a great experience and I'll be back someday!

    Celeste G.

    I was so excited to try this place out as it's one i'd pass by everyday after work. Thankfully, my friend decided to celebrate her 20th birthday here and I got the chance to try! I had very high expectations as i've heard many great things about this place. I did enjoy my experience and would likely come back and order things I regretted not ordering but, I wasn't wowed. I was on a budget so I ordered their carbonara pasta and a mocktail. My pasta was extremely salty, hard to enjoy. My mocktail was good, but kind of tasted just like a basic strawberry lemonade. I do think my experience was my fault and I should have ordered something totally different for the real experience which is why I want to try it out again and hopefully get wowed. My friend ordered the cheese wheel pasta and it looked amazing... The little show was pretty cool as well! If you want to have a good experience definitely come without a small budget to get the experience everyone raves about.

Green Corner- It's Tucked away in a strip mall in Chandler, this Mediterranean restaurant is all it's hyped up to be. Customer service was excellent--friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The dining area was clean and well maintained, with spotless tables and restrooms, which always makes a great first impression. We ordered two chicken shawarma plates: one with fries and hummus, and the other with salad and rice. Everything was seasoned perfectly. The chicken was tender, juicy, and full of flavor, the fries were crisp and well-spiced, and the hummus was smooth and delicious. We also tried the C1 combo Arabic style, which came with half chicken, half beef, and two sides. Both proteins were excellent, and the garlic sauce was a standout--we absolutely loved it. We couldn't help but notice many other customers enjoying salads, all of which looked fresh and generously topped with crisp vegetables. Portion sizes across the board were very good, leaving us satisfied with some to go. Overall, the food was excellent, the service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was clean and comfortable.

The kofta was great as well but would definitely come back more for their shawarmas but it's definitely the best bang for your buck I also got some baba ganoush on the side to dip my fries in but unfortunately, I thought the baba ganoush was too lemony/there was too much sumac added so it wasn't as enjoyable. Most baba ganoush I've tasted in my hometown also had a smokey flavor to it from the eggplant so it really couldn't compare.

Today I ordered a side of beef sambousek and pickles based on others reviews. I thought the pickles tasted like a solid kosher pickle. If you're a pickle purest you should love them. The sambousek was definitely a hit! It was delicate and full of flavor. It's worth getting all three of them. I'll do that next time. The main entree was a kafta kebab wrap which is automatically served with some of the tastiest seasoned fries I've eaten in a long time. In fact, I would say it's worth it to just order a side of fries alone. Anyway, the kafta had a homemade vibe to me and was topped with the usual suspects. An order of kibbeh and hummus rounded out my order. The kibbeh was perfectly cooked and the hummus was super creamy as house made hummus goes. Oh! This may sound crazy but I was even impressed with the lemon slices in my water. They tasted a little sweeter than what I'm accustomed to when eating out. Overall I really liked this place and it was worth the drive across town. Next time I'll be taking friends with me to enjoy a meal. One last note regarding payment. They do have Apple Pay! Woohoo! Just be aware whether you're using Apple Pay or a card, to avoid the small fee use your debit card instead of a credit card.

    Some restaurants chase trends. Others just quietly keep making really good food year after year…read more This is one of those places. I'd been here several times years ago, and after coming back, I'm honestly wondering why I don't eat here more often. I ordered the chicken shawarma, a stuffed grape leaves platter, and hot tea. Everything was exactly what I hoped it would be. The chicken was well-seasoned, tender, and wrapped with the classic toppings, and the portion was fair for the price. Speaking of price, the value here is honestly hard to beat. The stuffed grape leaves platter came with hummus, tabbouleh, pita, and hot stuffed grape leaves. I had completely forgotten they serve them warm, and my brain needed a minute to recalibrate because I'm so used to cold dolmas everywhere else. Once I took a bite, though... yep. That's how they're supposed to taste. Soft, flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. I ended up adding some of the hummus and tabbouleh to my shawarma, which made an already great sandwich even better. The service was just as impressive as the food. My server was genuinely kind, gave me a few extra minutes when I couldn't decide, checked in without hovering, and even offered to package my hot tea to go when he noticed I was still working on it. (For the record, ordering an entire pot of tea for one person was an ambitious life choice on my part.) The dining room isn't huge, and there's also a small market attached, which adds to the charm. This place reminds me that consistency is underrated. Years later, I came back, and it was just as good as I remembered. Great food, great service, great value. I'll try not to wait so long before my next visit.

    Never ordered soup before at a restaurant but couldn't resist the idea of lemon chicken soup. And…read moreWOW did it deliver!! Living in a retirement state, I usually have to add salt to anything from a restaurant -- happy to discover that it wasn't needed. The soup was perfectly seasoned! Happy to also hear that everything is made in house (excluding the pita bread) Can't wait to try the bahklava ice cream!

I was reminded why I don't dine here more frequently, they put the 'meh' in Mediterranean. Starting with the ambiance, this place is looking old and weathered. Their store front is not very inviting. Once inside, you navigate through their dining area to the counter to order. The counter area looks more like an advertisement for other establishments...stickers, ads, coupons, notes and all sorts of motley items. The man who I think was doing three jobs in one (host, order taker, bathroom attendant) took my order and walked away. No friendly hello or enthusiasm of any kind. Once I took my seat I watched several people use their store just for the bathroom in the back...the back where there's no door separating the dining area vs. kitchen vs. warehouse vs. bathroom. People were standing in a line to use the restroom a foot from where my food was being made. I ordered a simple gyro sandwich with rice. The sandwich was pretty straight-forward: gyro slices, onions, tomatoes and tzatziki. When it arrive, there was no sign of tomatoes or onion...just different shades of brown drowning in too much tzatziki. I eventually found several onions and one tiny tomato underneath all the meat. Underneath...what a poor presentation. The rice was okay...nothing special. There was nothing here that would draw me back. Having several other Mediterranean food options within miles that I do enjoy has relegated this place to 'in emergency break glass' status.

We ordered a Greek Salad with Gyro and a Vegetarian platter, retrieved our drinks and found a table. Our food arrived about 10 minutes later. The Greek Salad was delicious and included greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, Kalamata olives, red onions and feta cheese. I added gyro as the protein and it was a generous portion. The Vegetarian plate was also generous and was enjoyed by my friend. It included three crispy falafel, hummus, tabouleh salad, baba ghannoug, 2 stuffed grape leaves and tahini sauce with pita bread. We look forward to returning. Highly recommended for delicious Greek food and generous portions at a fair price!
