Aqua

Tables window-side or intimate booths for four to six people, one row back, provide ringside seats for some spectacular views and pave the way for food that hits all the quintessential Italian notes. If your appetite’s light, why not start with a sea bass carpaccio, beef tartare or grilled octopus followed by sea urchin spaghetti, or black truffle tagliolini with crutin fondue. However, if you skipped lunch your stomach may be calling for something more substantial in which case pan-fried sea bass, smoked whole lobster or News Zealand rack of lamb will surely fit the bill perfectly.

Italian-leaning wine list hits all the right notes if you want impressive: vintage Champagne from the top houses to Super Tuscans and Bordeaux icons. Not for the impecunious, mind, although there are cheaper entry points like Junmai sake for the more adventurous or a glass of rustic, cherry-inflected Sangiovese.

With a restaurant and mezzanine level penthouse bar showcasing Hong Kong's iconic skyline and Kowloon's metropolitan city views - aqua is the ideal location for events large and small.

With the experience and capacity to host a variety of private events including cocktail receptions, press conferences, product launches, fashion shows and weddings. The restaurant floor can seat up to 180 guests, all of whom will have full views of the iconic Hong Kong skyline and Victoria Harbour.
