Nemacolin Woodlands Resort

Our Frank Lloyd Wright inspired restaurant, Aqueous, proudly offers refined cuisine & stylish service. Nestled inside AAA Five-Diamond Falling Rock boutique hotel, Aqueous boasts table-to-ceiling views of the magnificent Pennsylvania Laurel Highlands and the 18th hole of the Pete Dye designed, PGA Tour-tested Mystic Rock golf course.

The cuisine at Aqueous takes the upscale steakhouse concept to an entirely new level. The menu features American Cuisine using the finest domestic ingredients with strong emphasis on local product & seasonal cooking.

Aqueous differs from traditional steakhouses due to its strong in-house dry aging and on-site cutting program. In addition to our Prime, Dry Aged and Certified Angus selections, you will have the opportunity to indulge in artistic preparations of seafood, poultry and unique pastry creations.

In conjunction with cuisine comes the love of wine. Aqueous offers guests a relaxed, yet personalized sommelier service.
