    Normally, The Aquarium Restaurant is a fantastic place to eat. I do appreciate that they were open to serve families for Christmas . We were 1 of the first families to arrive. Three of my party ordered the holiday dinner, which included a salad or soup... full Christmas dinner that included ham and turkey along with 4 or 5 traditional sides... then apple or pumpkin pie.. I'm going to assume that the restaurant couldn't schedule enough waitstaff to handle the crowd because we rarely saw our waiter. My food was very salty to me, so I opted to take it home. When my apple pie was served, it was very cold! I gave up, flagging down my waiter, and ate it. I won't let this experience keep me from going to the Aquarium, but I won't be going on certain holidays.

    Great waiter but the kitchen was extremely slow getting our food to our table of 7. We waited approximately 45 minutes for our food after placing our order. We paid before our food arrived and had to take most of it to go because we were on a tour bus. The food was hot delicious.

    We celebrated Thanksgiving here and it was all we had hoped and more. There was no miss on any of the food options. Speaking about food options, there was Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch/Dinner and Dessert options. The staff from the hostesses, waiter staff and buffet serving staff were warm and helpful. We never felt rushed, at all.

    It was a wonderful dining experience. The buffet had all we could have wanted & then some. Our waiter was very accommodating & friendly. We had a reservation and were seated before our reservation time. So glad that we chose Kemah Aquarium for our Thanksgiving meal.

    Went with my family including a 2 year to the Thanksgiving buffet brunch. Wait time was very short, staff was very pleasant and helpful, food was extremely tasty and alot of variety. They had a kids section of the buffet as well which was very nice to have. Servers were very pleasant and brought the drinks quickly and cleared the table quickly. My daughter loved the aquarium with fishes swimming around. Will definitely be going back.

    This was out first time out to eat out with the fam & not cook at home. Our table was not ready when it was scheduled . The host did a good job finding us another spot. However, it wasn’t close to the food area at all. One of my grandchildren is autistic & doesn’t deal with change well. So, this through him in a panic mode. They left really quick! All in all it was OK. Our bill was over $700 and I’m not sure it was worth that much.
