Acqua Restaurant at Kalim Beach isn’t just one of the best restaurants in Phuket—it’s a destination in itself. With its artistic dishes, award-winning chef, and romantic seaside location, it offers a world-class dining experience that blends elegance with innovation. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply indulging in gourmet cuisine, Acqua promises an unforgettable evening that lingers long after the last bite.
Nestled on the seafront of Kalim Beach, Acqua Restaurant Phuket is the culinary brainchild of Italian chef Alessandro Frau and his wife. Hailing from Sardinia, Alessandro brings a creative Mediterranean flair to the table, combining traditional Italian techniques with bold, innovative twists. Each dish is not just cooked to perfection, but crafted as a true work of art—both visually and in flavor. Dining at Acqua is an experience for all the senses.
Alessandro is no stranger to accolades. He and his team have earned numerous awards over the years. Acqua has long held the prestigious Michelin Plate, and in 2020 it was listed among the Top 20 Best Restaurants in Thailand by Thailand Tatler. Alessandro himself ranks among the Top 20 Chefs in Asia, and even competed on Iron Chef Thailand, the country’s take on MasterChef.
