Amber was a wonderful server! Very knowledgable about the menu and gave us insightful recommendations. She also went out of her way to make my friends birthday special and that was a wonderful touch. Thank you! We will be back the next time we’re in town.

A unique ‘aquarium’ atmosphere with excellent service, made this dining experience, prior to attending the Grand Ole Opry, very pleasant. Our server, Avery, was excellent. Her personable demeanor, and helpful assistance, together with her knowledge of the fish swimming by, made for a very nice evening. My wife and I both had versions of dishes with crawfish, shrimp & andouille sausage. Both were satisfyingly at reasonable prices, as was the wine list.
