Acquolina Trattoria & Pizzeria

After reading the reviews is was skeptical. But I like to make my own decisions. Me and my family went here for dinner and it was great. The food was absolutely delicious and the portions were big. Service was also on point. The only thing I would say is change the music to Italian or something more soothing and dim the lights a little. Other than that it was top notch.

Very nice room. Fun place. However, in our opinion, food was so-so, seasoning was blah and portions too small for the price. Ordered the Branzino special and kind of had to search for the fish filets under the mushrooms. Overall, just an okay dining experience with a large price tag.

Okay place for a mediocre Italian dinner. Nothing that will blow your mind but nothing terrible either. We enjoyed the mushroom fettuccine dish but the lasagna(quite tasty actually) was way too tiny. I was not a big fan of the panna cota dish. Our waiter was very attentive and pleasant.
The place was 20-30% capacity but the host seated us on one of those high tables despite my request for regular seating.

I thought the food was better now with the new owner Carlos! Congratulations! The only drawback was that the music was so loud we couldn't enjoy our conversations with freinds unless we yelled over each other. I asked the waitress to turn it down a notch and she came back and told us the manager refused. THis should be addressed!!!

Surprised and mildly disheartened that Aquolina is just hovering over the 4.0 line here. For those who aren't familiar, this restaurant (sister to Duemani by the way) boasts a liquor collection totaling something like 1,600 bottles. And probably one of the best margaritas (Cool and Spicy) I've had since I've been in Aspen. Great service to boot.

Friendly staff, good services and good food. variety menu of appetizers and pasta. the bar is also full and variety of alcohol and liquor

Ok, so chicken Parmesan, $46 for one little piece of chicken. No sides, nothing. Very disappointed because there’s a lot better options for chicken in town. Never again

Food was incredible!!!! Vlad was in my top 3 worst server list of all time. If I'm being honest he really seemed like he didn't care at all. He checked up on our table twice after he got us our drinks. 8/10 would recommend as long as you don't have Vlad.

The experience here was amazing! The food was excellent and the service was top notch! I would highly recommend Acquolina to anyone looking for a great dining experience! The rigatoni was probably the best I've ever had. I will definitely return.

The first time we stopped at Aspen on a roadtrip we were looking for a place for dinner. It appears that many restaurants do not have a specific closing time and by the time we arrived (8-9pm) there were many places already closed. We ended up picking a spot based on how packed it was and Acquolina was it! As other restaurant had 1-2 small tables filled, Acquolina was packed! It did not disappoint, their grilled calamari is what keeps us coming back! They cooked their seafood perfectly, the chorizo was not an overpowering flavor and complimented the dish well.
