Over Rated: It is a Landry's after all... you can get the same thing at any of the restaurants in Kemah, and it will always taste the same. This is a great place to blow money on a date, or take the visiting family members to, but otherwise, there are much better choices around to have a nice dinner. Try Chabucas on NASA 1.

This is a great place to go for a drink or a bite to eat. I would not waste your time with a nice meal though. It can be very crowded and noisy and the food really isn't that good. If you keep this in mind then you won't be disappointed. It is still a very neat concept for a restaurant and the aquarium is impressive. They have a fun bar downstairs too. It is worth a trip, but I wouldn't go for a special occasion.

Yahoo is an informative reliable tool to check restaurants for us. Therefore ,I wish to share on the Aquarium, we visited on July 5, 2008. We took a party of 6 as our guests, had a bill of $165 for food that simply would never pass inspection in anyone's kitchen. Ice cold chicken and veggies, tough steak, raw fried shrimp, brown lettuce on ...

Food is expensive and average. You don't get free refills on the drinks. The decor is awesome though. It's like you're under the sea.
Service is average. Food is below average. You are paying for atmosphere. They automatically add 17% gratuity. We ate there when they first opened and again about a month ago and no improvement.

Once is enough.

The evening we had dinner there, the noise was deafening. It could've been a nice atmosphere with the tranquil aquariums to look at, but it was loud, loud, loud. The food was passable but far too overpriced for the quality. The rice pilaf that comes with many of the entrees is tasteless. The vegetables tasted frozen. Seafood was just ok. Waiter was too busy for us. Poor service.
My family and I have had the pleasure of eating at the Aquarium twice. We live about 3 hrs away, and visit Houston often, but a couple of times we have stayed in Kemah to do the boardwalk. On both occasions, we have had no problems getting a table, and if so, they have a great bar!! The entrance is wonderful to look at all the way up to the dining ...

Sub Par
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/20/06
This place is all about atmosphere and kids. The food is sub par and not up to the prices they charge. If you want to go see some neat fish and ride some rides do it. If you want a great meal look somewhere else.

Aquarium in Kemah
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/13/06
The restaurant was really nice when you first walk in because you see this huge aquarium. As u go upstairs to be seated it was nice but not as nice as the entrance. We spent a lot of money on the food however the food did not taste that good.
