    My daughter and I went here for Mother's Day. I had the Frittata, which was delicious. It came with home fries. My daughter had the Circa French Toast, which came with bacon and sausage. She loved it! The drink menu was extensive with many craft cocktails. My daughter had the sangria, which she said was very good. The service was attentive. It was late in the day and the bartender was our server. We would definitely come back!

    Visiting Beaufort, NC with friends and when we ate at Clawson's for lunch, we were told that their sister restaurant, Aqua was excellent. We dined at Aqua this evening and were not disappointed! Everything was excellent and they treated my shellfish allergy with much care and attention. The server was friendly and excited about all of the food. The small plates are a wonderful idea and although what they consider "small", the flavor and size were perfect for us. Two in our party had the small plate Filet over Truffle dusted hash browns (yummy) while another member had the clams in saffron sauce that was amazing. Another member asked to substitute the Grouper on the Crab Cake small plate which was no problem for the kitchen and wonderful tasting. We had Creme Brulee and Chocolate Mousse for dessert and both were awesome. We will definitely return to this restaurant in the future.
