Acqua Restaurant-White Bear Lake

I love this quaint, lakeside restaurant. I am Celiac and most items can be made gluten-free. Don't come in a hurry these items are made by chefs. Enjoy your time and the pleasant atmosphere. I should have took a picture of the desert. It was so good we couldn't wait -

Had a friend tell us about this restaurant recently! So when my husband and were going out for a date night last Friday we decided to give it a try! He made a reservation online and we arrived 15 mins early and they sat us right away! From the moment we walked in everyone was so kind and welcoming! I am a celiac and my husband is gluten intolerant. We let our waitress Lexie ( who by the way was amazing!!) know and she said we can make everything gluten free on the menu! I asked her what her favorites were and every things she recommended I went with and she was so right everything was so good and clearly there was no gluten contamination because we left feeling great! Sometime restaurants say gf and they may not have gluten in them but they are not careful about Contamination. I would say that is not the case at this restaurant!!!! We will definitely go back it is a little more money then we would normally spend for just a date night however totally worth the money and we knew this going into it, we did each have a drink, shared the mussel appetizer, shared the apple salad, and each had a main dish and a dessert! So if you didn’t do all of that it can be cheeper! But we love good food so we go for it all lol! This will probably be more of a special occasion restaurant for us!! Thank you all for the amazing food and service! And special shout out to Lexie you were so wonderful, kind and helpful! We truly appreciated you!

This is a small restaurant big on flavor. Plenty of options for Celiac's or those avoiding gluten. Make reservations if you are wanting the patio seating as it fills up fast. Not a place to fo if you are in a hurry.
