We visted the Aquarium Restaurant tonight w/ a party of 8. The atmosphere is wonderful, especially for those with children. We called ahead and were placed on the list and arrived at 5pm with no wait whatsoever. Our server was friendly and attentive. We started with the Bruschetta and Shrimp & Crab Dip. Would have liked a stronger cheese in the Bruschetta, the Dip was tasty but mostly cheese. Both could have used more toasted bread for the amount of dip and topping. Our party ordered the following dishes:
Steak Wrap (which was tasty but the steak was cut in tiny pieces.)
Macadamia Crusted Trout (no complaints)
Grilled Mahi Mahi & Jumbo Shrimp (good)
Golden Fried Shrimp (Good)
Grilled Shrimp (served w/ an odd green sauce over it, that while tasty was not very appealling to look at)
Fried Captains Platter (Wow...everything on the plate is fried! No veggies.)
Southwest Seafood Platter (A tasty enough dish with spicy blackened salmon and tuna and pasta in a cream sauce.)
While none of us found the food to be exceptional....it was good enough, and plenty of it. The only complaint being a concensus that the side broccoli, carrots and cauliflower were not done enough. While we like them a little on the crunchy side, these were too much so.
It is neat to sit amidst the sharks and multitudes of swimming fish but we wouldn't rush back on account of the food alone. Sort of one of those places you should experience at least once.
