This attractive Scandinavian restaurant features a mid-century Scandinavian décor both in the café as well as in the dining room and lounge area. The ash wood ceiling, mellow lighting, wooden floors and sleek designs create a refined and modern ambiance. However, the spectacular food prepared by celebrity chef Marcus Samuelsson is the real star. The three-course prix fixed dinner menu includes favorites like smoked salmon, Arctic char, and some vegetarian options. Service is extremely professional without being stuffy. Reservations are a must in the formal downstairs dining room, but there is also casual seating in the upstairs area.

Valentine's Day Dissapointment
We went to Aquavit for Valentine's Day. Granted, I understand they must serve more people than usual on a night like this, but I expected for $...
good for business dinner
Food is good but pricy for non expense account dinner. We weren't pleased that they try to hide the restaurant menu. we had to request it.
Fantastic!
Aquavit is the type of place, at first glance, that seems a bit on the stuffy side ? a little too stiffly pressed and polished. The door is so...

Can't wait to go back!
