    We had to wait a long time for our food. They did not provide us ice in our drinks because it was in the back and she didn’t want to go there because they were about to close.  This is not a place that my family and I will revisit.

    I had such a great experience dining at the aquarium. I was visiting Denver and needed a few hours to kill and decided to check out the aquarium. The aquarium was okay. Not the biggest aquarium I've been to, but it the restaurant more than made up for it. Liz was my server and she was so funny and so nice and gave me all these great tips on where to hike during my stay in Boulder and was very very sweet and attentive. Her food recommendations were spot on and it really kicked off a great vacation. Thank you Liz for being awesome and making my trip special!

    The aquarium is special near our table and the food was very good. The fried onion appetizer was large enough for 3 persons to share and the shrimp cocktail could be for two persons, although the cocktail sauce would have been better with plain ketchup and horseradish

    Our server Maria was great. The food was dry and the seafood was overcooked. The ambulance was fine but we felt a little rushed. Also there was a dead fish in the aquarium closest to the kitchen. It was a bit overpriced but it was expected for the location.

    The food is good but the view is why you go - we sat right next to the tank. I really love this restaurant. The service can be uneven but the waiter was great today.

    We went on a Friday night and they had actual mermaids in the tanks!!! Three beautiful women were in mermaid costumes swimming in the tanks. It was a terrific experience. We have been to this restaurant several times and have never experienced this. Keep this up.....it was great!!
