The Scene
Suits, sporty families with strollers and denim-clad couples file in for a bounty of bivalves and an eyeful of coral and stunning sea creatures. Beware of a no-reservations policy, long waits, and tourist-bus crowds at… Read Full Editorial

If you are looking for just pure enjoyment, I would highly recommend this park to you. I am sure that you would not get dissapointed.

My Review by kareng252258066 via Citysearch on 8/11/2015

My Family and I will never visit the Houston downtown Aquarium again. We were going thru the parking lot trying to find a place to park the guard rail from the train came down and scratched up my vehicle on the passenger side. Mind you…

My Review by @noaims via Gogobot on 5/28/2014

I'm from Chicago so I'm used to the huge Shedd aquarium. Houston's Downtown Aquarium is a lot smaller but still enjoyable. It has multiple features in

My Review by Aubrey Click via Gogobot on 3/9/2014

Aquarium is very small. Rating is for Aquarium only. Restaurant gets 5 stars. Food was wonderful and our waitress was very knowledgable about the d

Downtown Aquarium by hernandez32 via Citysearch on 1/16/2012

When I think of the Aquarium, I think of the ambience, the white tigers, the HUGE aquarium in the middle of the restaurant, the appetizers and drinks, NOT the entrees. The food is decent but I wouldn't say the pricey meals is all what…

Fun and Entertaining by Kids In Motion Daycare Hm via Citysearch on 6/30/2011

I have visited the Aquarium with my youngest adult daughter on more than on occassion. I just recently took my Daycare preschoolers to the Aquarium as we were learning about Ocean Life. The children loved it and requested that we go again,…

Drink and play at Tilman Fertitta's seven-acre, downtown aqu by AlainHarvey via Citysearch on 6/18/2011

Drink and play at Tilman Fertitta's seven-acre, downtown aquatic adventure. The Appeal Houston's first public aquarium was designed to entertain the masses. The $38-million world-class complex, perched on the redeveloped 400 block of…

Been sick for 2 days by CSMobileUser6 via Citysearch on 5/11/2011

Ate at the Aquarium Friday night and its Sunday and I still have stomache cramps! A friend warned me before going becuase she too got sick. She had crabs and I the mahi mahi with crab. Been there before and thought is was over prices but…

TIGER CRUELTY by Chrissy8655 via Citysearch on 1/22/2011

The fish are fine. Parking was expensive and a disaster! No parking! WE drove around for at least 30 min before stalking someone to their car and waiting for their spot. And, don't get me started on the poor white tigers living in a h…

Mediocre by moosechomp via Citysearch on 1/12/2011

Definitely dont go here for the food. The atmosphere is fun, but if you are looking for great seafood then this place will disappoint!

great place for kids by mjyum11 via Citysearch on 12/2/2010

This is a great place to bring your kids. When we first got there, we thought the place was closed, but it was empty so we pretty much had the aquarium and outdoor venue to ourselves. The attendants were very friendly and let us ride…

Family outing by J M via Insider Pages on 6/4/2010

Nice place to take the whole family and spend a day. Different activities for all ages. They even have a restaurant inside that of good food.

Great for Kids by KDog73 via Citysearch on 6/1/2010

Let's face it the reason you come here is for the giant fish tank in the center of the dinning room. My family and I ate at this location and the one at Kemah boardwalk. The food is consistently good. It's a little pricey but you are…

Houston Downtown Aquarium by jitterbug123 via Citysearch on 5/28/2010

Terrible place to take children. The fish exhibit is tiny, the food is really expensive and there is no shade to sit in and eat. They conveniently place the gift shop where you have to go throught it to get out! Go to the Discovery park…

DO NOT GO THERE!! by May007 via Citysearch on 5/25/2010

This place is a joke!! The aquarium is so small you are done with it in 10 minutes, but the most appaling part is the Tiger exhibit - this poor animal lives only INDOORS in a small room with no grass and nothing remotely that mimics the…

The worst eafood in Houston by CSMobileUser4 via Citysearch on 5/20/2010

Ore shrimp was frozen not seasond and thrown into a fryer. We requested fried shrimp and coconut shrimp. The waiter brought fried shrimp and the WORST tasting thing wrapped in bacon. He was so rude that we decided it would not be in our…

Watch out for hidden special event fees! by Principalawyer via Citysearch on 5/9/2010

We made reservations for Easter Brunch. We were told the cost was $34.95 pp, and that was fine. BUT when we got there, we were told that there was a $6.99 pp "Easter Service Charge" added to each person's cost. So it ended up costing us…
