Best WLM Reviews
I had the opportunity to dine at Aquarium Restaurant in Nashville, and it was a rather memorable experience. The atmosphere is truly special, with a massive aquarium surrounding much of the space, creating an impressive and relaxing ambiance. Dining surrounded by fish and marine life is something you don’t see every day, making this place ideal for both special occasions and family outings.
As for the food, the menu offers a good variety of options. We ordered the paella, which, while flavorful, was a bit dry and didn’t fully meet our expectations. However, the other dishes we tried were decent, though not exceptional. The quality of the ingredients was good, but the preparation didn’t stand out as much as we had hoped.
The service was generally good; the staff was friendly and attentive, although the wait time for the food was a bit long, probably due to high demand. That said, the ambiance and the view of the aquarium made the wait more enjoyable.
In terms of pricing, it's fairly comparable to other restaurants in the area, so there were no surprises there.
Of all the desserts we ordered, the chocolate volcano definitely stole the show. This dessert earned all the applause for its intense flavor and stunning presentation. It was the perfect ending to the meal.
We had a reservation but we arrived early and they seated us (greatly appreciated).
I am so bad with names but our server was a guy and he or whoever made a great chocolate martini that did not disappoint. The portion size, the presentation and most importantly the taste of the food was def a 10. The aquarium just wraps around the room and creates a nice relaxing atmosphere.
First, I would like to say that Gabe was a fantastic server. We had babies and kids with us and he was on point. We needed some immediate food for an angry toddler and he got her something to eat super fast and saved our entire experience! Ask for Gabe! The atmosphere is fun, the food is pretty good and the service was excellent.
If I were you, I'd definitely save room for dessert and get the lava cake. It is really good. I'm not a seafood person, so I got their steak dinner. It was good with the butter on top that melted as you at it. The Caesar salad is really good. I can see why it's a favorite. I liked being able to watch the fish swim around while we ate. It also has a gift shop.
This was one of my favorite places to eat when I lived in the area. Brought my wife there for the first time while down visiting family and we had a blast. Our server, Sam, was a delight to talk with and was very attentive. The Cajun seafood pasta was perfectly seasoned, cooked, and portioned. My wife loved the sampler and the aquarium was relaxing and exciting to watch as always. A must place to eat if you're in the area.
Came here tonight with a group of six. Our waiters name was Cole. We had a fabulous experience this evening. The food was wonderful. Cole kept our drinks full and we didn’t have to ask for anything. Very good experience! I highly recommend the chicken Alfredo.
I definitely recommend the shrimp scampi ravioli and the clam chowder. We also tried the gator and shrimp tacos but the flavor was underwhelming. There's a bar and gift shop too. Restaurant and atmosphere is kid friendly so it can be loud/crowded. I recommend getting a reservation if you have a big group or it's a busy night otherwise there's up to a 45 min wait. We had a reservation for 2 but they sat us in a bigger booth meant for big groups farther from the big aquarium tank.
Good family place overall. Ahi nachos were good but not layered like normal nachos, so you had to dig for the tuna. Gator and shrimp tacos were lackluster, but edible. Loved the theme, but they could improve on the food.
