Had a reservation at 4:15pm and was a few minutes early. They didn’t have a table ready which is understandable because they stay pretty packed. You cannot beat the atmosphere as far as ambiance goes. Server was rushed, forgot things, and left us unattended but again, it was understandable. The wait for our food was looooong. I got a watermelon lit with the souvenir cup, they were sold out of the one I wanted and all but 2 but the cup I got instead was a delightful gift! I did have to ask for more watermelon syrup because holy LIQOUR! LOL. The bartender did NOT hold back . Props to you, barkeep! Definitely worth the price. The photographer was so sweet and kind. The food came out hot, and delicious (Southwest Grilled Chicken pasta) and my watermelon shrimp was delicious (cold). Definitely worth a stop in at Opry Mills Mall for a great meal.

Very cool experience, but reservations are a must — and they are serious about timing. You only get about a 15-minute grace period, so arrive early.
The highlight is definitely the ambiance. Walking through the tunnel when you arrive is awesome, and dining while surrounded by fish is a unique experience. You can also walk around and enjoy the aquarium, which is fun.
The food was decent. This is definitely a place you go for the experience rather than the food.
Overall, a fun and memorable stop, especially for first-timers in Nashville.

This was me and my family’s first time visiting the Aquarium restaurant in Nashville and we really enjoyed it. The aquarium was huge and had various types of fish, stingrays, and even sharks! The tank was well maintained. I ordered the Bayou City Étouffée and it was a tasty meal. It was also affordable for the portion. Our server was okay, however our food did take a bit to be prepared. All in all, great experience!

This restaurant was such a pleasant surprise,from the moment we walked in, we felt like we were dining inside an underwater world. The staff were so friendly and attentive, and the food came out quickly and tasted fantastic. Everything was clean, beautifully decorated, and perfect for a special outing or date night. I’d absolutely come back again and recommend it to anyone looking for something different and memorable.

This is definitely a unique eating experience. The aquarium is bigger than I was expecting and they stock a nice variety of fish. I appreciate the hostess sitting us close to the aquarium because this was a surprise lunch for my kid. Also the waitress was really nice and gave great food recommendations. I tried the Parmesan chicken and shrimp pasta and enjoyed it. It’s expensive but definitely still a nice restaurant to visit, maybe for a special occasion.

This is our first visit to this place, and it has truly been an incredibly beautiful experience. From the moment we entered, we were amazed by the realistic atmosphere that perfectly captures the essence of the sea. The food is spectacular, with many unique and, above all, fresh flavors… I’m a seafood lover, and I’ve never tasted anything so delicious. This place is incredible. BUT WHAT WAS TRULY WONDERFUL WAS THE SERVICE PROVIDED BY JESSY MARIN ( the best waitress in the world ❤️❤️❤️) WITH HER EXCEPTIONAL, warm, and very professional attention. Thanks to her incredible service, our experience was unique and wonderful. We will definitely be back to enjoy this paradise of flavors and excellent service.

Such a fun and unique experience! From the moment you walk in, the massive floor-to-ceiling aquarium sets the tone–it feels like you’re dining under the sea. The atmosphere is both relaxing and exciting, with colorful fish swimming by as you eat. The food was delicious and well presented. Our entrees were fresh, flavorful and cooked perfectly. Our server was friendly, attentive and helpful with recommendations. Great dining experience. They have a small store too.
