Good food and atmosphere, only drawback was the amount of young children, we didn’t mind too much but if you want a nice quiet dinner ask to be seated in the right area where there are less kids.

Many people that are local to Nashville will say that this restaurant is overpriced and not worth visiting. I completely disagree. The food was outstanding, the service was wonderful, the atmosphere was awesome, and the noise level was minimal. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Food was good, service was poor, 30 minutes to be acknowledged, another 20 to get drinks, food took 40 minutes to get. Other tables with different servers were sat, ordered, ate and left before we got our food.

The restaurant was very pretty and kid friendly! Seeing the fish go by, the darker lighting, the ambiance was amazing! However, the food was just ok! In fact, my past a fish had so much oil it pooled in the sides! Tyler, our server was amazing and even remembered to bring out the surprise birthday cupcake for my boyfriend! Overall, it’s a nice place to come for the vibes but I’d probably eat elsewhere!

Food was not good. 25$ for a regular burger was kinda crazy to me. My daughter’s kid pasta tasted like fish and garlic. There was Alfredo sauce all over her grapes. Coleslaw was very warm and underwhelming. I did enjoy my lemonade and my daughter liked her chocolate milk. But, that was about it for the food side of it. Seeing the divers in the water was cool though.

This was my team‘s first time visiting this restaurant. The staff was excellent. The food was good and hot and we really enjoyed walking around taking pictures of the fish and all the scenery. It was spectacular.
