    Our dining experience was remarkable. Everyone we came in contact with was friendly and always smiling. The food was excellent as well and we did not wait long for anything.

    Everything was okay. Expected better service. Server rushed my groups when trying to order. He was cheerful throughout the service and did check up on how our meal was. Food was slow, especially the dessert. Paying for the bill we were given the machine and then the server left. We waited for him as we were splitting the bill to process the next transaction. Waited for 10 minute and did not see him return as he was busy talking to the table who he personally knew. We then processed the next 2 transactions ourselves as we had to leave. Even in the end we gave the card machine back to another server who we were able to get the attention of.

    Great food, great service. Would come back again. My husband is a big portion kind of guy and ended up needing a pizza to cover him. Portions on the smaller size if you’re the same. Order more if you’re a big eater.

    We dined over the Eat Out Festival and have been left with mixed feelings about Aquafarina. Upon booking through OpenTable, you will receive a reminder of your upcoming reservation. However, the reminder goes on a quite some length about arriving on time, being mindful of leaving enough time for parking, and the consequences if you run more than five minutes behind. While I understand there are complexities to running a restaurant and participating in the Festival, the message comes across as overly instructive to the point of being patronizing. The ambiance at Aquafarina is quite nice — timeless and elegantly sophisticated with a touch of whimsy. The dishes were excellent and beautifully presented. Where things were lacking was the service, specifically from our server. While she asked if it was our first visit, she didn’t offer any explanation of the restaurant’s concept or the menu. Had she done so, we would have understood that there were more menu options on the back side of the menu. She simply returned to our table with a pad of paper and asked if we were ready to order. The rest of the service from her remained at the bare minimum. The service from the server’s assistant however was very professional. I’m not sure if Aquafarina purposely downgrades its service levels for the Festival but if so, I think it’s a misstep as our mixed experience doesn’t exactly have us running back for more.

    Service was lovely. Food value for Dine Out was decent, not phenomenal . Only complaint was the wine menu. When we asked for one...the server seemed to be even embarrassed to present. But truth be told... we've never seen a wine menu more hell-bent on discouraging purchase. And a quick glance around at the dozen tables around us...confirmed this. Seemed like a complete arrogant display of pedigree. Compared to La Terazza or Cincin, was equally sophisticated, but lacked the humility and/ or empathy to include all pricepoints. Pretentious beyond belief. I might be wrong...but the point should be to encourage purchase.

    We sat at the bar and our bartender/server Julia was exceptional! Her cocktails were next level and her wine suggestions were a perfect pairing with our dishes. Our glasses were never empty and our food was delicious, most definitely recommend.

    It’s was not a good experience dining in. We booked this place for our friend birthday, Dine in January 25th Saturday, it was a dine out special. We were told that we can only dine for 1.5hrs, start when we called that we were going to be 10min late because of the traffic that Canucks game in town they’re not that friendly in the phone they said they can only hold the table for 15min and using our 1.5hrs dining. When we get there again aggressively mentioning the 1.5hrs dining even if the service so slow, ordering drinks take like 15min to served. One of our friend was late because of this Canucks game traffic and she couldn’t even finish her meal they offer to move us to the bar section and also the service there wasn’t that friendly approach. I felt like No matter what happen even if your still eating they kick you out of your table because of 1.5hrs dining rules, they back to back booked and when you booked your table they don’t inform that, people going in restaurants to enjoy the meal and having good time with friends, instead I feel so stress . The manager try to make his best to serve and sorry but still able to give us table for our dearly friend birthday, washroom was horrible staff wasn’t friendly, not sure how they manage to in Michelin review. My first experience here was not impressive, I expect better since it’s an Italian fine dining restaurant. I will never consider going back here or even recommend this place. I been exploring restaurants around Vancouver but this place was 2 star for me.

    I visited this place with high expectations, but I don't really know its value. In particular, the server was too busy and distracted. The music also sounded louder than other similar restaurants, making it inconvenient to talk. Instead, the food is excellent.
