by Napoleon Hermans on do not get table service here. stick to the $5 at the door option. the owner is extremely disorganized and does not know what she is doing, the bouncer is an idiot and didn't seem to get that his job was to organize the people outside and cross them off his list, and the entire experience was LAME. $500 buckaroos better spent elsewhere. if it weren't for the 50+ ppl we had in our group, the place would've been completely dead.
by Kat F. on This place was awesome! We went for my friend's birthday and they sat us in the VIP room upstairs. The stairs are a bit small, uneven, and slippery (especially for us girls in heels and the drunken boys) so watch out for that. There were 20 of us in the group and service was impecable. They refilled our chips, dip, and waters automatically. The drinks were nice and strong-- margaritas were refreshing. I did not eat the main entrees, but did revel in some of the appetizers. If you go, you must try the empanadas! I would definitely go here again.
by Peter Flam on I love the ocean, and I really love aquariums because it is an easy way to see the ocean. I thought the aquarium as a whole was exciting, but my walking tour seemed to go by soooo fast- especially for being the largest aquarium in the U.S. What I really wanted to review was the Swim/Dive option that they offer. Experience the Gentle Giants. I was so excited when I heard that I could go scuba diving with 4 Whale Sharks. Since it is in an aquarium, you are guaranteed to see them!! So I checked out the dates. Their website does not make it easy to see what dates are available. Instead you have to check each date individually until you find an open date. This is tedious because the experience fills up quickly. We booked in January for a March dive. The weekends were booked out even further so we did a Monday dive. I suggested they improve their website on a survey I did at the end. Next came the experience itself. Of course it was pretty freaking cool. Never I have been in water with SO much stuff going on. . . .and big fish too, Big Ray's, Big Hammer Head Sharks, REALLY BIG Groupers. All big and cool to see. Our greeter, David, was very friendly and helped to get me even more excited for what was to come. (If that was even possible). After David briefed us, he handed us off to Patti, our dive master. Patti was nice before the dive. . . but sort of pushy during the dive. It wasn't just Patti, the whole crew. They steered us like cattle under water and kept all the customers a little too close for my comfort. They also had 4 Aquarium employees for 4 paying customers. I thought this was too much. What I liked most was what they call "Valet Diving" which means all of our gear was set up and just waiting for us to put on. That was pretty sweet. What I didn't like about our dive was that it was SOOOO short! 30 minutes at the most. I started with 3000 bar and ended with 2000 bar. Really, does it need to be that short? Especially for $300. I thought the Length of the dive was rude. Especially because as we were all exiting, Alice, the biggest Whale Shark they have came right up to me. Of course I wanted to just stare, but Patti kept waving me out. Come on lady, this is a one in a life time experience and you can't just chill. What was the rush? Other things to note. . . . . - Swimming is cheaper then diving and if you are just there for the whale sharks then do the swimming. They hang out at the surface a lot anyway. - The price keeps going up. It was $290 when we booked & $330 by the time we got there. - We paid $50 for video and I have watched it like ten times now. Maybe not worth it considering I am in for about 8 seconds total.
