I’ve tasted a lot of poke bowls and this one is just fantastic! My favorite place in Rehoboth. So glad I found it.

Most of the time this place has (live) music during a very extensive happy hour (4-8 p) when some drinks and the tasty snacks are half-prize. Most of the action on their very spacious patio under umbrellas and high tables which gives everything a beachy vibe blocks away from the boardwalk, and Ive never been there when people were not having an infectious good time. Pleasantly relaxed margaritaville-vibe in this very diverse crowd.

The service here was not good. We came and got seated. We got a couple drinks and my friend asked for water. The waiter didn’t bring any water, and I had to go look for him because he never came to check up on us. He avoided us when we tried to get his attention. I saw him talking to the other bartenders. He pressured me to tip more than what I was comfortable with as well. There was also an older customer that made a creepy comment to us. The drinks were also not the best. Half our drinks just tasted straight like alcohol.

The vibe is great. The sound system is the worst of all the sound system invented. I’m sorry. The DJ tonight attempted to provide good music. But the overlaying of music was too much for the poor sound system. It’s like acting at a play without attending rehearsals.

Really cool place to hang out, mingle and people watch. Fun staff. Shout out to Angelo! Try their Bang bang shrimp! Delicious 😋. And their Key Lime Martini is on point 🔥🔥. One of the best cocktails Ive ever had.We also had the pleasure of seeing the live band called Hot Sauce. They were fantastic!

Avoid this place at all costs. Literally dance anywhere else. My friends were assaulted physically and verbally by a patron at Aqua this past weekend. We spoke to the bartenders and bouncer and both shrugged their shoulders and told us “that kind of stuff just happens” … not if you stop enabling it! The aggressor was following us around all evening and continued to gawk at and touch other people dancing without consent. The person in question said some horrific and vile and insulting things to my friends. I am so disappointed that this “queer” “safe” establishment was not even remotely concerned with our safety. The staff explained “we can’t just kick him out.” Sure, Jan.

Aqua Bar & Grill on Baltimore ave in downtown Rehoboth , yes everyone knows it’s a great place for cocktails, fun and dancing. But did you know they also serve up some fantastic food.

Really lovely place with a nice atmosphere. I stopped here for brunch with my husband and we were not disappointed. They have lots of outdoor and indoor seating and the service is very kind. The food is good and reasonably priced.

Went to Aqua with a group of friends once evening a few years back. Ordered a $10 drink, paid with a $20 and the waiter took it upon himself to tip himself and didnt not bring back our change at all. We were so shocked by this unprofessional and possibly criminal behavior they our group quickly finished our drinks and left. We come back to Rehoboth Beach every year but will never goback to this establishment. Patrons, if your waiter doesnt bring back your change, contact the Rehoboth Beach Department and let the Police handle this type of behavior. and our waiter was so rude

Had the pleasure of dining here in August of 2018. Atmosphere is great! Food is wonderful. I had the crab cakes, guac and fried tomatoes - would definitely order the same food again!

Review №11

Great ambience, good music and friendly crowd... I was a little turned off by the fact that we were moved from our original table my a manager because someone else (probably a regular) was hoping to sit at that table. Once seated at a table tucked away on the back of the patio, it took the server an eternity to get to our table. After about 30 minutes, a different waiter started to attend to us and provided us with great service... but first impressions are important, not cool.

Review №12

Staff were friendly and takeout was ready to go quickly but we had some issues: the caprese salad was missing the salt and cracked pepper. shrimp quesadilla was plain with only the aioli as a topping. it would be good with some fresh pico, greens, guac, anything else to dress it up some. sorry but one last thing, the crab cakes have a lot of lemon in them and it took away from the flavor. probably wont order from here again.

Review №13

Atmosphere was wonderful with patio seating and live music. I had one of the best skinny Lemon crushes ever here. My family enjoyed their food and we couldn’t been more happier. Superb service as well!

Review №15

One of the best places to go when in Rehoboth. I typically go for drinks but occasionally grab a bite. After eating we always ask “Why don’t we eat here more often!!?!” Because it is really good food too!!! The staff is so friendly and they clearly work hard so you can have a great time.

Review №16

AquaGrill was recommended to me by my softball team families who had a great experience two nights ago. The staff and manager accompanied 20 folks right around closing with no questions and did an amazing job getting the large orders of food out.Therefore, my husband and I decided to also patron this establishment. Firstly, the ambience was welcoming and fun! The music was on point throughout our entire meal! The staff was attentive and kind. The food was delicious and fresh, as well.I can’t highly recommend this establishment and their business enough.

My fiance and I stopped at the aqua grill for a few drinks and some late-night dancing, the DJ the night we were there played awesome awesome music and everyone was drinking dancing laughing and having a great time, I have not yet tried the food but was told that everything on their menu is good and I cant wait to try it and update my review. I would highly recommend for a fun night out you stopping at the aqua grill check it out for yourselves we were not disappointed.

We were staying in the motel across the street on Rehoboth Avenue and while sitting out on our balcony we heard the most wonderful smooth jazz music being played live. We took a walk over in the pouring rain And it was totally worth it. We eat late from the menu and had a few drinks. Totally a great vibe! Highly recommend. Our waiter was adorable and we felt most welcomed walking in so late.

Nice clean and well decorated. Bartenders good pour and cute and witty... one had a bubble making guns..haha. mostly 40+yrs gays and a bridal party. Was told the youngers come.in spring and summer. What here are the local retirees and such. Nice place.

Review №24

Loved it! Stopped in first thing in the morning when they opened, 12 noon on Memorial Day weekend. Got a drink inside then went outside to the patio and sat at a high top table. Stayed for about 3 or 4 hours. Server was absolutely awesome. On Target every step of the way. Talk to many people that were also sitting out on the patio. Fantastic relaxing atmosphere with a very good service. Looking forward to returning. Its a must go when youre in Rehoboth. And, you must go in the evening for the nightlife.

Stopped by for a drink Friday night after a show at the Blue Moon, and had a lovely time out on the porch. Nice bartenders, generously sized drinks and so fun to have a primarily gay hangout to feel at home at.We love having and supporting LGBTQ+ spaces like this one!

Review №28

We stopped in for a few drinks after a very hot day on the beach, and were welcomed by the staff into a much needed air conditioned room. The available beers were in bottles which was not what I was in the mood for, but the Bloody Mary I had after the beer was one of the best Ive had - and it was a generous pour as well. Go ahead, grab a drink. I hope you get a Bloody Mary as good as mine. Enjoy!

Grabbed a late lunch at the Aqua Grille, and it was amazing. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the food tasted fresh and flavorful. I had the Skinny, and it was one of the best sandwiches Ive ever had! Definitely will be coming back the next time Im in Rehoboth and recommend it to anyone looking for a filling yet light meal!

The food is OK, but the frozen daiquiris are amazing and reasonably priced. And the wait-staff is super-personable. It’s mostly outside seating, which I love, but come prepared for chilly nights.

Review №33

One of the owner/managers came by our table and took one of the outdoor heaters, without saying a word. That way the group of customers he was socializing with could have four of them going! Hint to owners of Aqua: dont treat infrequent customers with contempt.

Seasonal Watering hole that caters to the LGBT crowd. Food is just ok (nothing to write home bout), cocktails are well made and priced accordingly. Good customer service / waitstaff, Very crowded for happy hour. The crowd is mixed (young and old), can be very S&M (Stand and Model) at times.... better to go with a group.

Food here is just below average. The fries were frozen and the overall quality was not good at all. Also, the atmosphere was too loud. If you want a nice quality dinner then look somewhere else.

A great place for families and foodies as well as the place to be for happy hour in Rehoboth! We discovered Aqua Grill on a morning walk and saw a delicious looking, fairly priced menu posted. We checked it out the next day as a non-LGBTQ family of five. Another family of three was also dining. While it is clearly a popular place for drinks, we were made to feel so welcome for dining by our very friendly server who was perfectly attentive (not too much and not too little). Then the owner, who caught my eye, came over to our table and was so pleasant! He genuinely wanted to know all about how we liked the food and shared a terrific ice cream and breakfast spot. The edamame was so unique (the black and white sesame seeds was such a special touch) and the pulled pork sandwich and cole slaw I ate was the best I have ever had. Beautiful hand cut fries cooked to perfection and what looked to me like homemade dill pickles with the kids hamburgers. We liked the fried tomatoes too. Very cute bucket and flip-flop theme. What a find for foodies! Thank you Aqua Grill!

The serving staff and management at this bar were atrocious. Ive been to bars all over the country and have never experienced the kind of disrespect I experienced here. I would say never ever ever go to this bar. we were with several ladies and they actually were called names that I wouldnt even repeat here. horrible.

Visited Rehobeth for a day trip and wondered in to the aqua grill on Baltimore and was pleasantly surprised of the openness of the patio, great atmosphere, friendly staff, decided to eat and was seated immediately, had the Guacamole and caso dip which appeared to be made from scratch, after the apps the entrées came out, Good eats and tasted amazing. Definitely recommend this place.
