Acqua Bistecca DC - Washington, DC - Part Time to Full Time

Acqua Bistecca is a restaurant where wood-fired steaks and pristine local seafood take center stage, all through the lens of refined Italian influence. The menu reflects a balance of land and sea—’ACQUA’ and ‘BISTECCA’—celebrating the bounty of the mid-Atlantic and the warmth of the grill. From simply grilled local Chesapeake tile Fish to delicately charred steak brushed in red Lambrusco butter, each dish is rooted in tradition yet reimagined with elevated, modern touches.
