Aqua Kyoto & Aqua Nueva
Aqua Kyoto & Aqua Nueva Site visit date 2nd May 2023
Two amazing restaurants each with its own terrace.
Aqua Kyoto and Aqua Nueva are two totally amazing restaurants sharing the same entrance on Argyll Street, directly opposite the Palladium.
Each restaurant offers its own cuisine; Aqua Kyoto has an open sushi bar and grill with an amazing range of Japanese dishes (this restaurant can offer a fully vegan menu); Aqua Nueva on the other hand offers modern Spanish cuisine.
The buzz literally starts as you walk in off the street, greeted by reception staff you are directed to the lifts, both restaurants are side by side on the 5th floor.
The upstairs reception is striking but an understatement compared to the restaurants themselves.
Just in front of you is the main Spirit Bar which links the two restaurants, turn left for Aqua Nueva and straight ahead for Aqua Kyoto.
Both restaurants are distinctly sultry, sophisticated, both have large rooftop terraces, ideal for private events.
Aqua Kyoto Terrace
One of three private terraces across these two beautiful restaurants
Aqua Kyoto
Essentially there are two options when it comes to private events at Aqua Kyoto; you can hire the restaurant itself which would give you the banquette dining area and the terrace or for larger events you could also include the Spirit Bar, capacities are below.
For seated events the set menus are based on the sharing concept and dishes will be brought to the tables continually over the course of the dinner. For reception/standing events, the venue has a range of canape and bowl food (the freestanding tables in the banquette dining section would be removed to provide more floor space).
On the terrace a maximum of 80 guests can be seated under the cover of a retractable awning although the maximum capacity outside is 150 guests. The terrace is also heated!
There are no restrictions in terms of noise and/or timings when the terrace must be vacated, smoking is permitted on the terrace too (so no need to send smokers back down to street level).
