    We really enjoyed our experience at The Aquarium Restraunt. We had a toddler with us which loved the fish. But the wait for our food was an hour long. Good thing we had a lot of things to entertain him 😊

    Very, very disappointed! The website stated the restaurant was offering mermaid shows and a meet and greet every 30 minutes from 3p-7p on June 21st at this specific location. My 3 year old was so excited to see them and then we get there, sit down and nothing happens. We ask our waitress if there will be a show and she said she didn’t know anything about it. Do you have any idea how disappointing that is for a 3 year old who was so pumped about going? Clearly this was false advertising, just to get people to come. Completely unacceptable. The waitress said she was going to ask her manager about it and then never said another word about it! Completely a wasted visit for overly priced food.

    The food was very good, definitely try the gator bites! i just loved sitting right in front of the aquarium while eating. The servers were knowledgeable about the aquarium and were very friendly. We were glad we came here for dinner on our vacation. Definitely worth going!

    You get to look at a huge aquarium full of fish while you eat, is there really much more to say? Food was great, it wasn’t expensive, and they had Tabasco, so I had a great night.

    I was very impressed with the quality of the food. I had been there before and the quality of the food was not as good.

    The overall experience and seeing the aquarium the entire meal was the only good part. Our service was awful, our server was hardly around. Our drinks were empty most of the time and every time we asked for something it was forgotten until being asked for again. The food was nothing special and way overpriced for the quality and taste. Not impressed at all.

    Servers seem to have a lot of tables and would take a large amount of time to get back to their tables. Food was absolutely amazing however, they are not willing to let you change tables regardless of how busy it is.
