Rocky’s Aqua is a beautiful location set within marinas with outdoor and indoor seating. The server was attentive and very friendly. As busy as it was we were very surprised to see how fast the food came out. We split a shrimp cocktail that were very fresh and a good size. My wife had a lobster roll That was exceptional while I had the whole belly clams that were good. They have a walk up ice cream window on the front or the restaurant but we were to full to try. We look forward to going back next time we are in the area.

Every time we are in the area we come to this place for dinner. So far, so good. Service is great, we never wait and are always seated per our wish. The views are beautiful, especially around sunset. The food is good, my favorite is lobster roll.

We chose Rocky’s Aqua based on ratings and for its amazing views of the sound. We were blown away by the service. As you can imagine, they were extremely busy and there was a long wait. Even so, the manager, Lauren, made sure we were comfortable while we waited. I won’t comment on the price as that is subjective.

Stopped here on a whim and even my picky husband gave it a 5/5. Laid back atmosphere, gorgeous views, warm and welcoming service, and the food and drinks were delicious. We will define be back! If you can’t decide where to go for dinner, pick here – it’s perfect.
