Just off Front St, Aqua is heavy on local produce and seafood, with some gluten-free, dairy-free and vegan options for good measure. The cast iron–seared crab cake comes with sweetcorn lima bean succotash, country ham and saffron lemon aioli, while the seared tuna has a Korean twist and is paired with pickled marinated vegetables. Wines $5 daily.
