A friend took us yesterday, and boy, it was wonderful. After happy hour drinks at the bar (if you love beer, you will LOVE the Austrian Stiegl they serve) the three of us shared a table and, depending how you want to see it, three/ four dishes: The garlic bread with the wood grilled Octopus. I find the $13 for the bread a challenge, but it was great nevertheless. For the Octopus, it was a 6 out of 5. Possibly the best I ever had. I am not a fan of celery, but I loved the salad that came with it. Who ever knows me: Guido bragging about salad? No way. Then we had the Vodka penne, followed by a Prosciutto pizza. We are good eaters, but we had to pass on desert, we were full. As I said, we went yesterday, a Wednesday. Featured item on the Happy Hour List: the Burger. I only saw them flying out of the kitchen. Take my word: next Wednesday. Same place. Happy Guido :-) $150 well spent, I can't wait to go again. Great ambiance, and even greater service. We were surprised that an Italian place offered an Austrian beer and also some carefully selected Austrian wines. We asked - and were told that the owner loves them and went extremes to make them available. Thanks for reading this. Let me share one very personal thought at the end: THIS is a restaurant that shows love and heart by owner(s) and their staff. It clearly differentiates from any chain place. I wish all restaurants I rate with 5 stars were run like this. read more

One of our top Italian restaurants that we always come to. Service is amazing! Super friendly and welcoming! The food is super quality and amazing too! From their Pizza, bolognese and almost the whole menu. Including the drinks. We're frequently here 3-4 times a month and it never has failed us. We have tried almost everything on the menu. Jordan is also one of the reasons why we visit because we've never felt amazing friendly service with awesome energy as always! It matters especially these days. Cheers to her always! P.S. if the big boss is reading this please bring back the butterscotch budino!!! We will visit way more often! read more

After having a very disappointing experience at another restaurant nearby, my mom and I looked at each other and said, "We have to get out of here." We ended up at All'Acqua, and I can honestly say it turned the entire night around. This place was 1000/10. From the moment we walked in, everything was incredible. The atmosphere is beautiful, the service is exceptional, and you immediately feel welcomed. They make you feel like they're genuinely happy you're there, which is something that is so often missing at restaurants. The service was some of the fastest and most impressive I've ever experienced. Our food came out in about 20 minutes, which honestly shocked me. We ordered wine, and I don't know if our server sprinted to the bar or somehow telepathically communicated our order to the bartender, but our wine was at the table in less than five minutes. Everything was seamless and perfectly timed. The food was outstanding. We ordered the grilled octopus, chopped Italian salad, and eggplant Parmesan, and I honestly don't know which one was my favorite because they were all incredible. The octopus was unbelievably tender and perfectly prepared. The chopped Italian salad was full of flavor and had the perfect balance of ingredients. The eggplant Parmesan was one of the most unique versions I've had--they don't do the typical thin, breaded slices. Instead, they serve a thick-cut piece of eggplant that is incredibly tender and flavorful. The wine was delicious, the food was amazing, and the service was truly impeccable. All'Acqua didn't just give us a great meal--it completely rescued our evening. I would recommend this place highly. We will absolutely be back. read more

We're on a mission to unlock more neighborhoods in our LA adventures. We chose this based on our want for both pizza and pasta. Parking lot is fairly small but we were able to find parking in the neighborhood adjacent to the place. The inside of the restaurant is very causal with great date night lighting. Our service was quick to arrive for drink orders. I ordered the che figata which was a maybe one of my top 5 mixed drinks to date. Our appetizer was the burrata with prosciutto, and we wished we could have just that that for dinner. We shared the margarita pizza, and opted for our own pasta entrees. The deal of the night was a salad and gelato with every pasta dish so that was a treat. If I'm in the area, I'd stop in again. read more

This review is for the $20 weekday lunch special. I don't know how much longer they're running this promotion but it's incredible!! You get an appetizer (choice of soup or salad), entree, and scoop of vanilla gelato all for $20. The best part is that the entree you choose is a full size normal entree which includes pizza, pasta, or a panini, which can actually run $28+ at normal price! I've come several times and the pizza is by far my favorite choice of entree! You can't go wrong with any of them but the margherita was especially good. The dough is so light, chewy, and crispy and the toppings taste high quality. I've also tried a few pastas, the linguine vongole, orecchiette with Italian sausage, and bolognese. They're good but not amazing, however given the price of the lunch special it's still a good deal to get a full size pasta dish at this price point. I recommend going with a few friends and sharing your entrees, it feels like you're getting so much variety and an incredible price. read more

Restaurant is a cute vibe. The food comes out super quick! There's some opportunity in the cocktails, personally. I would love to see bartenders explore outside of their menu sometimes and make a bartender's choice drink. But food was amazing. Loved the Italian copped, and the table's favorite was the potatoes and carbonara. We ordered another round of food because it was so yummy! Our waitress was super friendly and checked In frequently. Would come again! read more

Disappointing. Ordered a Maiale Pizza ($27) and a Fettuccine Bolognese (subbed bucatini) ($28). $60.37 with tax. Pizza was fine. Really can't complain about the size or taste. Bolognese - Tiny, tiny, portion (see photo, quarter for scale). Literally filled less than half the to-go container. 28. American. Dollars. Don't worry, if you could taste anything, it was only briefly. And for a "lamb, veal, and beef" ragu, it's pretty tasteless. A brown unappealing sauce with no onions, garlic, or seasoning. Called them and asked about the portion size and was told "it's probably the pasta, our portion sizes don't change" - about as little of a care as the puny portion that they served and charged me for. Save you money, go to Spina down the road. read more

Another place I will no longer patronize because they don't accept cash! There is no posting on the door or menu. I would have walked out if I'd known.

I was pleasantly surprised (which is saying a lot of you know me).

Apologies for this review filled with run-on sentences - but im rushing to go eat the rest of the delicious meal. Everything was 10/10!! Must try read more

This restaurant was recommended and chosen by the birthday girl. She had been here before and knew it would be good for a birthday dinner. The restaurant staff were very attentive and friendly. I felt very comfortable, I was treated like a returning customer, not a stranger. Our group ordered shareable dishes. We started with a cocktail, a large salad, grilled octopus, 2 wood-fired pizzas, and pasta. The birthday girl got a dessert. This was the first time I heard of Diavolo Pizza (Mozzarella, Pepperoni, Calabrian Chili and Grana Padano). It was hearty and soooo delicious! Followed by Butternut Squash Ravioli, I loved the creamy sauce and fresh basil on top. The pasta is made fresh on the premises daily. Hours of Operation: Brunch - Sat/Sunday - 11AM-2:30PM; Lunch - Mon-Friday - 11:30AM-2:30PM; Dinner - Sun-Thursday - 5PM-9:30PM; Fri/Sat - 5PM-10PM.

Had dinner at All'Acqua and it was such a nice experience overall. We sat on the outdoor patio, which had a great atmosphere -- cozy, not too loud, and perfect for a relaxed evening. The lighting and setup make it feel a little upscale but still very approachable. I ordered the Rabbit Ragù, and it was delicious. Rich, comforting, and full of flavor -- the pasta was perfectly al dente, and the sauce had a nice depth without being too heavy. It's not something you find everywhere, and they executed it really well. The portion was just right too -- satisfying without being over the top. Service was friendly and attentive, and the overall vibe of the place is warm and welcoming. read more

We came here to celebrate my daughter's promotion and this was her choice since she loves Italian! Very nice ambiance with a Top Shelf Bar and a nice size wine collection! We started with the following appetizers: Grotto misto calamari, shrimp, zucchini, shishito peppers had no calamari legs, just a couple of shrimp but batter was really light and crispy; nice Garlic ciabatta bread, parmigiano, butter and parsley; Italian chopped salad was ok, nothing special; Margherita pizza with mozzarella, basil, parmigiano, sea salt & extra Virgin oil was the highlight of the evening! My husband had the Polpettine which are 2 pork and veal meatballs with tomato sauce and eggplant parmegiana which was ok. I had the spinach fazzoletti(hankerchief) with porcini mushrooms, garlic, white wine and parsley. I enjoyed the fresh pasta and very unusual presentation so I liked it! Server seemed new, never mentioned any specials but the staff to clear dishes were very prompt! I was disappointed that they didn't have the Spaghetti "HERO" with crab or the strawberry blueberry cobler. :( read more

Did you know that this is the sister restaurant to "Barbrix Restaurant & Wine Shop" located in Silver Lake area? Claudio owns both and last night he greeted us at the door & sat us at a four top near the window facing Glendale Blvd. It was perfect!

Tried the hamburger at All'Acqua and it was honestly. Juicy ground beef burger, delicious sauce, perfectly grilled onions, and crispy fries on the side. Super satisfying without trying too hard. Best part? It's only $10 on Wednesdays and comes with fries Definitely worth stopping by if you want a solid burger with real flavor. Also great service, amazing staff and the owner opens the doors for us customers like wow you can't beat it!! read more

Came here for Mother's Day and waited 1 hour and 45 minutes for a Caprese panini that arrived with a pale, insipid tomato slice, a few random chunks of mozzarella, no pesto, and falling apart. The side salad was just plain greens with no dressing. The restaurant was clearly overwhelmed and overbooked, but what made it worse was we had no check‑ins, no updates, nothing to hold us over. Only after we complained did they bring two tiny slices of bread for a table of nine. Extremely disappointing. Will not be returning. read more

Food was all great. Burrata was rlly good I love the combo I just love burrata. Caesar salad was good u can tell they use real anchovies I just personally don't like that it's not chopped. My entree the bolognese fettuccine was really good and the mortadella burrata pizza was delicious. My cousin thought the rabbit ragu didn't actually have rabbit in it and he sent it back when he realized the meat was weird lol so just a heads up. I like how the lighting is dark and there's a couple candles per each table for a little light. Service was great we were having a good time with the waiters they surprised us with a couple of the dishes good recommendations throughout. read more

I brought my parents here for their wedding anniversary and it was worth it. They have plenty of parking and it's free! The staff are very friendly and helpful, attentive and make sure that we are taken care of. Ambiance: Dimly lit, perfect for nice dinner with friends, or dates, not too loud, and clean. Food: I don't even know where to start. I had their Fettuccine with Rabbit Ragu and it was delicious! Not too salty or had any aftertaste. It was my first time trying rabbit and first I wasn't sure since I love rabbits :( but it is the recommended dish on the menu. My dad had the Pici Calabrese and my mom had their Branzino. They both loved their meals as well. I forgot the wine I had but it was a great accompaniment to my pasta! Dessert: Ooooooh I'm a big dessert person and their dessert hit the spot! We ordered their chocolate lava cake and butterscotch budino. THE BUTTERSCOTH BUDINO WAS HEAVEN ON EARTH. I almost liked the plate it came with lol The chocolate lava cake was good too but I was more impressed with their budino. It's been a while since I've had a lovely budino after Bottega Louie. I would love to come back to this place again! I recommend 10/10 ! read more

The food was WOW!! I loved their vegetarian lasagna verde - especially the fact that they weren't trying to imitate the meat part of the dish (like other places usually do) and instead opted for adding mushrooms. Their orange cannoli were also outstanding! I was a bit confused by the presence of valet $10 parking since the restaurant obviously had enough space for free self parking. Despite that, I will definitely be back to try out more pastas because I was very impressed! read more

This is definitely one of those dimly lit, date night restaurants where you order a little bit of everything because the portions appear small. But since everything is mainly carbs, you'll feel satisfied real quick. The atmosphere is a little loud on a weekend night, but it's a vibe. Service is really attentive! Autumn farro salad (5.0) Super light and refreshing. I appreciate the layers of crunchiness from the pomegranate and pumpkin seeds which make it a good contrast to the softness of farro. Burrata (4.0) The prosciutto isn't as salty as I'm used to, but I'm probably eating cheap prosciutto? LOL. It was really good though, and it compliments the milky burrata really well. It comes with a fairly small, toasted block of seeded bread that isn't sliced. It's kind of comical when presented together since you're served a plate with a mound of burrata on top of a single layer of prosciutto slices and a toasted block on the side. We ended up ordering another bread block for $4. Funghi (4.5) Such a delicious and savory vegetarian, thin crust pizza. I liked the variety of mushrooms and how the cheese wasn't oozing or gooey, which made it lighter and easier to eat as an appetizer. The only drawback was that some bites were overly charred at the bottom of the crust. I normally don't mind charred bits, I think it adds a nice bitterness to food when done properly, but I think that since the pizza was so simple, the burnt bits really stood out to me. Fettuccine (5.0) I've never had rabbit before so it was a cool experience! The texture is similar to lean salmon and I couldn't tell if the sweetness of the dish was from the rabbit or the sauce. The pasta noodles were amazing and had a tender yet satisfying bite. I was expecting a more sour flavor profile but was pleasantly surprised with how sweet the dish was! read more

THE FOOD AND AMBIANCE IS GOOD ============================== Not thrilled with the service or the dinky tables. Got a recommendation from a good friend, so a group of us decided to try it. Made a reservation through their website which was easy, but our table for four was so small it should have just been a table for two. Our server was not really cheerful and slower than molasses as well. I thought I saw her drinking wine off to the side before she brought mine unless she was drinking water from a wine glass. She took too long checking back in with us as well. I am pretty easy going, but my whole group agreed with me. The bus staff was good though. I really wanted to like it, but I didn't. They really need to work on service and get some bigger tables for parties of four. read more

Wasted an hour of my life to not get served. No update to apologize food was taking longer than usual. No apology for anything. No complimentary bread or anything! When we told them we were leaving, it's Mother's Day with our children, they were so rude! We asked if they were even going to say anything to us, an apology for wasting an hour with no food or anything, no. No sorry! Rudest owner. Terrible! Begrudgingly paid our parking in his lot. Nasty!

Had a work lunch here today. Showed up at 12 noon with about 17 people. Staff were friendly. Waiter wasn't very attentive, he was MIA pretty much after he took our order, but the SA did a great job. He was hustling and very friendly. Food was good. I kinda expected more considering that this place has been in business for so many years. My pasta definitely needed more salt, but it was good enough. I got the 3 course $20 lunch special. You chose from a soup or salad to start, a panini, pizza or pasta for main course and a scoop of Gelato for dessert. I would probably visit again, but only for the $20 special. I definitely wouldn't visit during non lunch hours. read more

The best special menu during the weekday. Great prices and quality food. Each experience has been amazing. The staff is also so friendly.

If you're looking for delicious Italian food, we found one in Atwater Village. The entire staff provides excellent service. We ordered garlic bread that was very fresh and soft. Many restaurants serve bread that is hard and crunchy. I ordered the lasagna bolognese that had a really delicious sauce and cheese. My wife loved her Faro Salad. We had the Barbera d'Asti red wine, which was a nice touch! We will be back! The ambiance was cozy and festive. read more

Absolutely love All'Acqua! The food is always excellent and the service is always top notch. Big fan of their lunch special too.

I used to love coming to this spot and have frequented for 5 years! I would visit all'acqua when I would want to enjoy the great menu they have to offer! recently they eleminated items from the menu that happened to be my favorites! there didn't seem to be a need to eliminate these dishes after all these years especially if there are no new dishes! On top of that my most recent visit I was sat at a table with the previous party's check still on it. Unprofessional overall read more

Just a comment in observation. We love coming here for martinis and something else. But the observation is when a customer leaves a bag or a shopping bag. I recommend that the employees within three minutes don't go through the bag. Maybe they should wait a couple of hours in case the customer walks in and says oh that's mine. Otherwise four stars are appropriate. read more

Came for Labor Day lunch. We each had the lunch special that includes soup/salad, a main, and ice cream for dessert. I had the Mushroom lasagna which was very good. I really liked their marinara sauce. My wife had the Spaghetti Nero with Dungeness crab. She loved it. We also really enjoyed our appetizers, the Calamari and the Cauliflower. The calamari was battered and cooked perfectly. The cauliflower was also great. I especially appreciated the addition of capers and golden raisins to the cauliflower that added a touch of sweet and tart. The server was excellent too. The atmosphere was welcoming and comfortable. All-in-all, an excellent experience. read more

Happened to be driving by and hadn't had lunch yet.. or any real breakfast.. which worked out perfectly. They had a lunch special that was quite the deal, for $20 per person it included, salad or soup and a choice of entree and a small scoop of vanilla gelato.

I have fond memories of dining at All'Acqua back when it first opened. I stopped going as frequently when I discovered other restaurants closer to where I I now live. But on a recent visit to Atwater Village, I decided it was time to give it another visit. We didn't have a reservation which is a must-have on a busy Saturday night. But we were there early enough to snag a seat at the pizza bar where we could watch the pizzaio plying his craft. We had sat here before in years past and have always admired how deftly they can craft the pizzas so quickly and efficiently. We were brought menus and greeted by a very friendly server. He was obviously very busy with a large group that was seated behind us, but he always made time to check on us. After bringing us a couple of beers, we decided on splitting one of their mouth watering pizzas, based on the suggestion of the pizzaio. We chose the Maiale, which included scamorza, fennel pork sausage, and red onion, but we added mushrooms per his recommendation. We are both fans of sausage and mushrooms so this combination seemed to be a sure fire hit! While waiting for our pizza, we continued to be amazed at his deftness in juggling both the pizza making as well as the wood fired oven, casually bouncing back and forth between the two. I was amazed at how easily he could be making three different pizzas at the same time while never forgetting to watch the oven to make sure everything was cooked to perfection. As he made our pizza, our mouths began to water. It arrived after a few minutes and did not disappoint. The gently smoked mozzarella, or scamorza, had the perfect amount of smoke, complemented by the fennel laced sausage and a lovely sprinkling of fennel pollen on top. The meaty mushrooms added an earthy bite of umami which sang harmoniously with the other ingredients. My only complaints were that the crust was a bit too charred and the dough remained limp. Charring in a wood fired oven is to be expected, but from my observation, the oven was a way too hot, necessitating the removal of the pizza sooner that it should have been. As a result, the outer crust had some badly burned spots and the bottom crust was limp and soggy which required using a fork and knife to eat. While the flavor was spot on, it was a little too messy to eat comfortably. I'm happy to see All'Acqua hasn't changed and I'm certain I'll return when in the area. Their menu, which is much more than just pizza, has changed quite a bit, so I'm eager to dive into their pastas and mains on my next visit. read more

What can I say? 2 star reviews are hard to get. This is only for the food the service was good, attentive so I am kind of torn, but at the same time a dining experience should be food centered.
