"An Italian restaurant housed upstairs in a 300-year-old building off Church Circle, owned by Stacy and Ari Gejdenson; it functions as the upstairs partner to a downstairs speakeasy and allows bar patrons to order from its menu." - Claudia Rosenbaum
"The beloved Italian restaurant on Capitol Hill has made a surprise comeback in the heart of Annapolis. Acqua al 2 resurfaces with a large selection of steaks and a whopping 16 pastas to choose from, including homemade gnocchi, tagliatelle tossed in a Tuscan beef ragu, and cannelloni. Acqua al 2’s sister speakeasy Harold Black also lives on below. Open for lunch, dinner, and brunch." - Tierney Plumb
"The Italian standby will return to its original Capitol Hill spot where it had been located for a 10-year stretch before closing in 2020. Per a liquor license filed this month, it will reclaim the building that most recently housed the short-lived Harvest Tide Steakhouse; it is unclear whether the sibling speakeasy Harold Black will also revive service up top. The two-part venture maintains a newer presence in Annapolis, Maryland." - Tierney Plumb
"I note that the storied Italian standby Acqua al 2 closed last fall after a 10-year run." - Tierney Plumb
"I noted that the restaurant space spent a decade as Acqua al 2, a Capitol Hill favorite for Italian food, before it closed last fall." - Tierney Plumb
