Aqua, located at 1146 W. Pratt, has changed only a little bit in appearance since the departure of Ropa. The same tables and chairs remain as wells as the glasses, plates, and silverware. Added are three or four large TVs, a juke box, a pool table, and a video game.
Everything else seems to be vastly different, and as of the late stages of Ropa, vastly improved. The menu was obviously prepared by a trained chef. The ingredients go beyond the scope of a typical sports bar...I think Aqua is still trying to pin down their identity.
I tried some of the more simple items while I watched the Bears game on Sunday. The burger was delicious. The bartender didn't need to tell me that it was grass fed beef, I knew the second I bit into it. The fries are hand-cut and served with some rich and textured garlic spread. Delicious, every fattening bite. Everyone that I've talked to that has sampled the food has had good things to say. From memory there are pastas available, vegetarian food, a steak (which I've heard is enormous), and seafood. Salads, soups and appetizers are available as well. The prices are good, too.
Grass Fed Beef!!!!
