New chef, I was told food was outstanding. Bartender very skilled at making drinks. Highly recommend.

Really glad we have this place a shot. Temhe food and bar service were really good. I had a Caesar salad and the halibut “Wellington” with a zucchini scales, squash, rice, and thyme butter. My wife had the crab cake dinner with scalloped potatoes and a spinach salad. Wish we saved room for dessert because everyone was awesome. Not the cheapest prices but you are getting quality products and portion sizes for it at least. I would definitely come back

Visited at the beginning of March. Not kid friendly although they do have high chairs. We were hoping for aquariums but nothing, it’s actually a very small space and kind of awkward when you walk in, at least it was for us since we walked in holding our 10 month old with no reservations to find ourselves in front of a very nice birthday dinner right by the entrance.
Our server Amanda was very nice and attentive. I wish I could say it was the greatest meal I’ve ever had but it really wasn’t. My favorite part of it all was the scalloped potatoes we got for our baby and the Bonanza wine which was excellent. Stuffed peppers were a good appetizer I recommend. My husband got the chicken Parm and I got the crab “stuffed” fillet. I say “stuffed” because it was not, they should call it fillet with a few pieces of crab on top and the worst part was that it was topped with a sauce made with blue cheese. They should really tell you this because I don’t like blue cheese so that completely ruined it for me. The filet was a good cut but I honestly wouldn’t pay what I did for it. I ended up paying $69 for a tiny crab topped fillet drenched with blue cheese and of course, I was up charged for getting French onion soup as my side so my meal alone was $85 including my glass of wine- not worth it. My husband cut me some slack since it was my first time ordering something without the price on it but since the ribeye was $40 I had no idea a smaller piece of meat would be that much more but I was wrong. I really wish I could have enjoyed it more but in my opinion blue cheese is very over powering and that’s all I taste if it’s in anything. I don’t think blue cheese is the most popular thing so not sure why they wouldn’t tell you considering how good the service is. It is not a place I would go back to, I can literally go anywhere else and get a good fillet with wine and potatoes and not pay almost $100 per person. We live in Colorado now and those prices are something I expect here but not over there, if they are trying to blame the crab it was not even an oz of crab on top so I don’t know what holy cows they are getting this meat from but it’s not right in my opinion. Regardless, we wanted to try this place and we did and now have something we laugh about and learned my lesson about ordering things without a price on it.

5 stars only because you can’t rate any higher. We had a Christmas party at our home catered by the Aquarium Lounge. Erica, the owner put the entire menu together for us and WOW! The food was better than any party or event that I’ve ever attended. Everyone that attended raved about the menu and food. The staff Troy, Quint and Amanda were stellar. They came in, had a plan an executed. Their business is food and its second to absolutely no one. Their service and staff…exceptional! I just can’t say enough good about them. Not only did they have everything set up beautifully. They took care of every detail. They even took pics for us, everyone absolutely loved them. Also, you couldn’t even tell that they were in our home after they left. They cleaned every space they were in, took out the trash as it accumulated and put everything back in place that had been moved. Every little detail was spot on. They didn’t miss one single thing. We will always use the Aquarium for all future parties and get togethers. Thank you Erica and team for making our first Christmas party one to remember!

Do NOT order off their ON-LINE menu or you’ll be in for a HUGE surprise when you pick up your order!
The prices are about 33% HIGHER at restaurant than the prices listed on line!
Luckily the bartender saw we were contemplating leaving, so he took 20% off the bill.
Food was good but definitely too high for the quality.
To the owners, Very disappointed you have all the time in the world and you can’t update your on-line prices. Thank your bartender…

Had a great meal and the service was outstanding. Definitely recommend it. Made a reservation and the table was ready and waiting with our name on it.

The only good thing I can say about this place is that the waitress tried her best with what she was dealt with.
I used to work here under the original owners. Loved it! The food used to be amazing and the service was even better!
Tonight, we made reservations to spend my mother’s birthday with them. It was over an hour and 20 mins into our wait for our food before I finally went to speak with a manager to find out what was happening. Turns out, it was one of the owners. As I was explaining the long wait and asking for an update, a gentlemen at the bar scuffed and rolled his eyes. I found out a few minutes later that this was the other owner, the husband of the person I was speaking to. After I food arrived, three out of 4 plates were practically inedible. After that long wait and just the overall experience, we opted to return our food and cut our losses and head out. The female owner did come by and let us know they took care of the bill, which we appreciated given the circumstances. As we walked outside, the male owner was driving by. He stared hard at us and then peeled around the corner while running that stop sign. I was annoyed so I did give him the finger. He put his truck in reverse and came right back asking what was the problem. We explained the whole evening followed by his reckless driving. He then whipped away. His wife then came outside and started hollering about how we needed to leave. A few seconds later, the husband came whipping around the corner in his truck and parked and came face to face yelling and screaming with my husband. His wife ended up yelling to him “grow up!” While pulling him away.
This was an absolute nightmare and is a very bad look for an establishment with such a great reputation from years passed. It’s been a staple of this city for years and years and these new owners have destroyed the place, from quality of food all the way to just plane decency.
If I could give zero stars, I would.
