I thought this was going to be a tourist trap (overpriced mediocre food) but the atmosphere was honestly enough to convince me to dine here. It was so amazing to watch the fish as you ate. Not only was the service quick, the staff friendly, and the food delicious, but it was priced good for the food quality. However if you get the appetizer platter, you may not have room for your main course. We had plenty of leftovers to take home!! Thanks for a wonderful experience.

This place is fantastic! When you walk in you are greeted by the spiral staircase and aquariums, and amazing staff members. There’s a bar with a variety of drinks, also has fun drinks with no alcohol. Don’t even get me started with the food. This food is the best I ever had, that is an understatement. The best shrimp I’ve ever had, the steak was so juicy, and the lobster was out of this world! Our waitress Brian was so good to us! He gave us many refills, very nice, and funny. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for high quality food and staff!

Food could have came out a little more hot and my pasta definitely could have used some Parmesan, the blackened catfish was a bit salty. Overall the food was still wonderful and we enjoyed it. The giant tank is so cool to look at and has some massive fish. I would recommend going at night since during the day it's a little too bright to get the full experience.

our family had an unforgettable experience that truly felt like a journey into the ocean’s depths. Entering the restaurant, we were immediately captivated by the immersive ambiance created by the enormous tanks filled with vibrant marine life. The kids were absolutely enchanted, their eyes wide with wonder as they spotted various fish swimming gracefully around them, it genuinely felt like we were dining underwater. The menu offered a fantastic range of options, catering to both adults and children. I was pleasantly surprised by the thoughtful choices available for kids, especially given my son’s sensory issues. The meals were not only delicious but also served in a way that made them appealing and manageable for him. It’s clear that the restaurant puts a lot of thought into accommodating different dietary needs and preferences. Our waiter, Samuel, was a standout part of our experience. His enthusiasm and dedication to making our visit special were evident from the start. He patiently engaged with our children, making them feel comfortable and excited about their meals. Samuel went above and beyond whether it was recommending dishes or ensuring our kids had everything they needed, he made our dining experience feel truly unique. Aquarium is more than just a restaurant; it’s an adventure that combines excellent food, a captivating atmosphere, and outstanding service. We left with full bellies and happy hearts, eagerly planning our next visit. If you’re looking for a family-friendly dining experience that’s both fun and delicious, this is the place to go!
