We were celebrating a birthday with a party of 13 and Andrea helped make it a day to remember. Her service was outstanding and went above and beyond expectations. We NEVER do any reviews but I had to make an account and sign up just to show our sincere gratitude for everything Andrea done.

Angelica was an amazing server. She was very attentive to our table. Making sure our drinks were constantly filled and the plates cleared. As a small family we take my mother to the aquarium for multiple holiday brunches. It never disappoints

Worst experience ever, after all we go there mostly during the week and still not good service but today was the worse, sat at 6:13 got our drinks around 6:20 our appetizer at 6:40 and our food at 7:12 only 2 entrees that we order and one of them was wrong. Our server only show up like 3 times passing us by for other tables the last table he got was actually getting good service and it was ridiculous that they got their food before us too. There was another server his name jeff or jez but he was amazing he had 3 tables and the one that got after us got their food way before us. Over all bad experience and poor service, i wish my mom didn’t like this place so much so i dont have to go back but sadly she does, even the appetizer wasn’t good but we were so hungry we finished it. But honestly i cannot emphasize how bad the service and the whole experience was. Had to get up at last to ask for my food to be cancel.

I felt like we paid more for the atmosphere (which was nice) than the quality of the food (which was just ok).

We were impressed with the aquarium atmosphere, the view of the lake with many beautiful boats transiting the Clear Lake canal and the excellent seafood selections. The crispy alligator and stuffed flounder were excellent choices. One appetizer and one main course provide plenty of food for two to share.
