The staff and the food was excellent. The atmosphere is what brings you and keeps your eyes busy while you are there. the kids will LOVE all of the animated animals and the aquarium in the dining room.

I had such an amazing experience here with my family. The food was absolutely to die for. There were amazing vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. The only problem was the wait for our food, but the elevated atmosphere including animatronics made it so much better.

We came here for dinner, and it was an amazing experience! The animals move and make sounds, and the fish tank looks like it’s straight out of Finding Nemo! The drinks were delicious, and you can take their signature glasses home with you (great souvenir). The food was so good we were chowing down, and the portions were so big that we packed it to go because we just couldn’t finish no matter how hard we tried. I love this place!

We celebrated my parent's 65th wedding anniversary and my Mom's 86th Bday here. This place went above and beyond to make my parents feel special. The food was excellent, and the staff was helpful and kind. We had 8 people at dinner (6 adults and 2 kids). Everyone ordered whatever they wanted. We also got appetizers for the whole table, and all the adults had one to 2 adult beverages with their meal. The whole dinner cost $402. It was extremely reasonable considering how much food was served and how big the adult beverages were! The kids even got souvenir cups. Our kids had a blast at dinner and then at the arcade attached to the restaurant. I highly recommend this location.

Lively and vibrant atmosphere. Food was delicious. Portions were larger than we expected. In fact, my wife had to order a kids meal so she didn't waste food. Price was moderate.
