Quintessential Dining at Acqualina

Acqualina Resort & Spa on the Beach Satisfies Its Discerning Clientele with an Exceptional Choice of Dining Options

Acqualina Resort & Spa on the Beach, set on 400 feet of pristine white sand on South Florida’s fabled coastline, is the very definition of “La Dolce Vita,” the sweet life. And nowhere is this philosophy more present than in the array of first-class dining options offered at the Mediterranean-inspired luxury resort. Acqualina satisfies its guests’ sophisticated palates with a collection of exciting dining outlets and activities. From the #1 Zagat-rated Italian restaurant Il Mulino New York to the beachfront Riviera-inspired Costa Grill, and from the lively Aaria Bar & Lounge to the decadent and romantic Intimate Beachfront Dining program, Acqualina Resort & Spa on the Beach offers a variety of options to suit even the most refined tastes.

For a sumptuous and exquisite epicurean experience, Il Mulino New York is an idyllic match for the elegant and Italian-inspired oceanfront resort. Il Mulino New York brings with it a reputation of tremendous success, including the #1 Italian Restaurant rating by New York City’s Zagat Survey for an astonishing 23 years. Renowned for its bustling and energetic atmosphere, market fresh daily specials, extensive selection of fine Italian wines and impeccably polished wait staff, Il Mulino New York is a sought-after establishment, frequented by both locals and visitors in the know.

For a casual lunch, afternoon snack or tropical cocktail, Costa Grill, one of the only true oceanfront dining locations in Miami, is reminiscent of a European beach club on the Riviera. Its magical setting evokes thoughts of breezy days and nights on the Mediterranean. Costa Grill serves an array of gourmet cuisine including sandwiches, burgers, wraps and salads in a casual setting. Costa Grill also hosts Beachfront Grill Nights every Friday and Saturday night from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. This lively and fun-filled event is open to the public (Costa Grill’s is normally open to resort guests and private beach club members only) and features a gourmet barbeque menu, specialty cocktails, rhythms of live Mediterranean music, and gorgeous views of the moonlit ocean, swaying palms and starry skies. Friday night’s Beachfront Grill Night also presents Cinema Paradiso at the resort’s oceanfront pool, where guests can enjoy films on a big screen beginning at sunset. The movie selection will change weekly, and an a la carte menu of appetizers, popcorn and theatre snacks is available.

Acqualina’s Aaria Bar & Lounge features a 20-foot bar and separate lounge area with an outdoor veranda overlooking the ocean. Aaria’s setting and atmosphere is the ideal spot for afternoon or evening relaxation while enjoying the ocean view and sipping on delectable cocktails. Aaria offers the resort’s signature cocktails and lounge menu weekdays from 4:00 pm to 11:00 pm and weekends from 4:00 pm to midnight.

For a one-of-a-kind experience, Acqualina offers Intimate Beach Dining for two.
