It came with oysters, three types of shrimp, shrimp paste, three types of ceviche, and a carpaccio. My favorite was the carpaccio, which had pieces of freeze dried raspberry on top. The only thing I didn't like was one of the ceviches. We had a plate of fried calamari and shrimp next. The batter was excellent! Lastly, we had a pasta dish with clams. It was simple but delicious. I would say this restaurant was the highlight of our time here in this port city.

Found Aqua Ristorante under things to do in Civitavecchia, Italy. We took an Italy cruise and…read morewanted to do something fun in this port. Excellent reviews on many sites and I contacted Federico thru his Facebook page, he quickly responded. Make your reservations prior to your trip or you won't get in. Federico and Fernando his driver picked us up at our port and drove us to his ristorante. Ten minute drive and we were ready to start. 6 members of our group from 15-80 years old. This by far was our favorite part of our trip. The Ristorante was a perfect setting for a cooking class and fantastic meal. We learned how to make homemade Bolognese sauce, gnocchi, eggplant parmigiana, tiramisu, veal saltimbocca. This was a hands on class not just a demonstration. Fabulous class. After we got to eat our meal and we were served farm wine which was delicious. Fernando and Federico took us on a wonderful countryside tour after this fabulous class. So worth it. Amazing day.

We were weary travelers just off the plane and he was flexible with the timing of our class. On the way to his home (where the class was held), he told us a little bit about Civitecchia. When we arrived we were given two options to choose from for our main course, gnocchi or ravioli with spinach and ricotta filling. We opted for the ravioli. First we made our dessert, tiramisu. Next we made our appetizers. We made eggplant Parmesan. We also had fried and grilled eggplant. Federico taught us that no food is to go to waste. So when we finished making our eggplant parm and there was one ball of fresh mozzarella left, he grabbed a tomato and made a cáprese salad. We then made the bolognese sauce for our ravioli. And then it was ravioli time. All dishes were spectacular and Federico was an excellent, patient teacher. He and Tracy were superb hosts. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal with the two of them out on their terrace overlooking the sea.

We were needing dinner prior to going on our cruise. We had a really hard 36 hours to get here and…read morewe were really hungry. They have menus in Italian and English. The have indoor and outdoor seating. We are outside and it was lovely. Obviously a lot of scooter traffic right near their seating, this is not an issue as far as noise We had the fried octopus and it was presented really well, in a lovely nest. Our entrees were Amberjack and my wife had gnocchi. Both of these dishes were well cooked. The gnocchi had a lovey salty seafood broth that was excellent for dipping bread. We ordered the tiramisu and a lemon short bread . These were very well constructed and really tasty. If you happen to be in Town for some time please try it. We were the only English speaking people in the joint everyone else was a local.
