A beautiful dining experience at Aqua Restaurant ❤️
Visiting from Vancouver, BC, I searched online for the top recommended restaurants in Phuket and Aqua consistently appeared on every list. After dining here, I can confidently say it deserves every bit of its reputation.
From the very second we arrived, the service was absolutely top-tier. Someone was already at the door holding it open for us as we reached the steps, and that level of attention carried through our entire evening. The restaurant itself is stunning , elegantly designed, beautifully curated, and full of thoughtful details that make the space feel both luxurious and welcoming.
We were first presented with a selection of complimentary hors d’oeuvres, and their presentation truly blew me away. I’ll attach photos, but one was a tiny, two-inch handheld pizza that somehow delivered the perfect bite of flavour. The other was a delicate tuna cone visually gorgeous and just as delicious. Such a beautiful way to start the meal.
For our dinner, I ordered the tuna carpaccio, which was plated like artwork, followed by the spinach ricotta ravioli that was rich, flavourful, and perfectly balanced. My boyfriend had a chicken dish that was cooked beautifully and full of flavour as well. I also have to mention the strawberry cocktail so fresh, so well-made, and so perfectly balanced that I ordered it twice.
What truly set this restaurant apart was the exceptional hospitality. The staff were incredibly attentive: our water glasses were never low, our table was always immaculate, and everything we needed appeared before we even realized we needed it. And as a wonderful final touch, the chef himself visited each table, including ours. Speaking with him was such a highlight ,hearing about the restaurant, his perspective, and his passion for his craft made the experience even more special.
Aqua is a beautifully designed, high-end restaurant with world-class service, exquisite dishes, and an atmosphere that feels unforgettable. If you’re visiting Phuket and want a refined, memorable dining experience, this place absolutely deserves a spot at the top of your list.
