Acquaviva

 

It’s the perfect date spot!  Acquaviva is an Italian restaurant with some French inspiration, with food that focusses on the simple and natural.  Since its opening in 1999, it has become  a community favorite in the heart of downtown Westfield NJ, complementing its impressively calming, charming décor with an antique clock on the wall that once graced 28 Rue Murillo in Paris.  Owner Mick Gjevukaj is always happy to welcome back regulars, and loves impressing first-timers, as well.  The restaurant can accommodate private parties of all sizes, and features two main dining rooms, a bar and lounge area, a spacious private dining room, and a beautiful outdoor patio when the season and weather permits.  Located at 115 Elm Street, it is conveniently located very near both street and lot parking.  The food and service are outstanding, and they feature a full wine menu.  Be sure to not skip the appetizer course, and you might want to try out the chef’s selection of hand-made ravioli for the day.  Check out their menu at www.acquaviva-dellefonti.com/index.html  It’s a wonderful way to have a European dining experience, with wonderful food and equally wonderful atmosphere, right here at home!
