Everything about it was great the food was absolutely amazing and the workers were so nice. The atmosphere itself was such a calm vibe I absolutely love it there! It’s also a great for people who eat gluten free and who are vegetarians.
We were in town for a convention and ate here all 3 mornings we were here. The staff is wonderful and I have celiac disease and they all took extra precaution and were very knowledgeable. The manager Alexa went above and beyond for me when she didn’t have to, it was truly appreciated. Even the patrons were amazing, my husband is retired military and we had someone pay for our meal. This place is excellent, highly recommend!!! It means a lot going to a new place and finding somewhere that is so inviting and safe for me to eat
Came for the gluten free options. The food tastes very good, but portions are small. You have to have reservations for weekends and busy times. They have mostly outdoor seating. For a high end/expensive restaurant, they fail to bring you to a clean table. Most of the tables and plates were covered in leaves. When seated, there was no effort by the staff to clean the table or dishes. Been a few times, but not likely to return again after last experience.
Not sure what changed...I used to order from here frequently even as a GF girly and never had any issues. When I noticed the name change, I called them to ask if there were new owners and if any of the recipes had changed. They said no to both. I ended up placing my usual order not too long after, and not only did the food NOT taste good, but I somehow got glutened from my usual GF order. I'm disappointed, because I used to love this place.
I stopped by this restaurant on a business trip. The reviews for gluten free options were really good and I wanted to check it out. First off, the chips and dip/salsa were so good. They were brought out just as I was sitting and put me in a good mood as I reviewed the menu. I ordered the Chile Relleno and I am telling you it was the right choice. The flavors were amazing and the quantity was more than I could handle. If I was staying in town for another day I’d have taken half the meal back to the hotel for a later meal. So incredibly good! I’ll surely be back the next time I’m in town. Be sure to check your license plate in when parking in their lot!
This place has great food and a friendly vibe. There's a convenient free parking garage right by it as well. As someone who is a celiac it is also nice that there menu is well marked for gluten free and vegetarian.
We experienced Acqua Di' Mare on a whim. Our 19th anniversary and we are always looking for new places to dine. Read the reviews, looked over the website, thought... why not? Let me tell you why you should.
The food is exquisite. Off the charts flavor, and the presentation is to die for. We took no pictures - too engrossed in the experience. Started with the octopus and crab cake appetizers - crazy good. So light, so satisfying we knew the main course would be epic. I had a table unveiling of what is now the best filet steak I have ever had. Dressed and finished in front of me and a world of flavor within. My wife had a scrumptious rack of lamb and my MIL loved their signature dish, a seafood pasta (plenty of gluten free options, btw!). We finished with a shared tiramisu which was deconstructed in form and prepared at our table.
The staff are some of the kindest, most passionate people who truly care about and appreciate every customer that graces their door. Owner/chef Nikola even came around a few times to check on us with a genuine concern that we enjoyed our entire dining experience. The rest of the staff was superb and we wanted for nothing the entire evening.
All of this is enhanced by an intimate, comfortable decor folded into an otherwise busy downtown Chandler scene. We were transported to another time, another place when visiting Acqua Di' Mare. Go once, and you'll be hooked. We are, and we look forward to our next visit soon.
Kitchen staff and front of the house are both absolutely amazing. The Chefs pour their heart into every meal they come up with and serve. Top quality food, a great team to be a part of. I recommend eating here to everyone I see, they have something for everyone wether your vegan, have a gluten allergy, or down to try anything new and delicious, this is the place to go. Very attending waitresses, very talented cooks, 10/10.
An easy comparison would be: Chipotle is to Burritos as Gadzooks is to Enchiladas, but Gadzooks has plenty to make it unique. Great quality and so many options to choose from (to include vegan and gluten free) just about everyone should find something they enjoy here.
I enjoyed my AFB gluten free sandwich and soup! There's not alot of inside tables and they are really wide so you nearly need to yell to be heard across the table. Service was great, food was great.
