    Menu in November 2023
    Tiffany Y.

    Acquario restaurant is located inside the Lago Mar Beach Resort and Club. The hotel's website says that Acquario is open only to members and guests of the resort. In November 2023, the menu listed appetizers such as calamari and crab cakes, a few salads, and several entrees such as mahi mahi, swordfish, veal parmesan, and filet mignon. Please see my attached photos for the full menu. In the past few years, I have eaten a few meals at Acquario. For my most recent visit, my husband and I did not need a reservation, and we wore shorts and t-shirts. The host and the waiter smiled, made friendly conversation, and promptly served us. Here are my reviews for our foods: Florida-style ahi poke - $16 - 4 stars - This appetizer contained ahi tuna, avocado, scallions, and sauce. On the side was plantain chips. My husband said that he liked how the plantain chips added some crunch to the ahi tuna. Shrimp cocktail - $16 - 4.5 stars - These shrimp were a very jumbo size, were very fresh, and were served with a cocktail sauce. On the side was a coleslaw that my husband said was one of the best coleslaws that he has ever eaten. Port-wine braised short rib - $30 - 4 stars - This 10-ounce short rib was topped with a flavorful port-wine demi-glace sauce. On the side was mashed potatoes that my husband said were delicious. Shrimp scampi - $32 - 4.5 stars - The linguini noodles were cooked well, and they were mixed with several large and fresh shrimps as well as white wine, lemon, and garlic. My husband and I thought that this shrimp scampi tasted excellent. For a previous visit years ago, I thought that the filet mignon tasted very good and that the crab cakes needed more meat and less breadcrumbs.

    We arrived late at the hotel and came here because of convenience (open until 10 pm) but were really impressed. Place was hopping on a weekday with groups hanging out at the large comfy lounge and a live piano player entertaining guests. A very comfortable lived in ambiance with huge windows all around looking out to the tropical garden and pools. Waitress and busboy were very friendly and helpful. I got the $44 three course meal with choice of appetizer, entree and dessert. Huge crisp fried calamari was great and helped all three of us sate our hunger. The blackened mahi mahi entree was excellent. My wife got the mahi mahi on top of a robust Caesar and kale salad and also found it well prepared. Our daughter got the huge portion of shrimp scampi, which was as good as the best Italian restaurants with tons of garlic and lots of large shrimps. Key lime pie was good and not too sweet. We all took back leftovers and plan to return for the breakfast buffet and possibly also the Xmas brunch. A very comfortable and enjoyable experience with tons of good quality food and welcoming staff!

    Fantastic place, great vibe, very friendly service, a little loud at times but that just might've…read morebeen the night that we were there. I don't think they take reservations, but there is a bunch of space outside where you can wait, have a drink. Enjoy watching the water etc. The Coconut shrimp was amazing as were the fries. The Fritter appetizer was great, same with the oysters, pretty much everything was phenomenal. My only suggestion is don't overdo it especially if you're visiting and have a hotel that does not have a way to reheat your food later. Also, very nice drink selection and if you're not looking for alcoholic drink drinks, they have Coca-Cola not Pepsi as of this review. Phenomenal place, definitely check it out if you're in the neighborhood

Upon arrival to the restaurant, we were told there was a 1.5 hour wait (at 8:40pm) before we would even be seated. With nothing else planned, we went ahead and agreed. While we waited, we went to the outside bar and grabbed a drink! Make sure you order a BE NICE PUNCH!!! Luckily, the wait wasn't quite as long as predicted! Once seated, our waiter, German, was on top of game! He NEVER missed a beat, all night! My coconut shrimp platter was delivered with honey mustard dipping sauce. I'd never had it that way, but it was pretty good! My husband said the Mahi and crab plate was amazing, as well. He ordered a slice of key lime pie on recommendation from the waiter. I'd hold back on that.... It was $12 per slice & he didn't even share The food was really good, but not $99.33 good. Same for the drinks at the bar that were an additional $45. The environment was great with beautiful views of the Intercoastal waterway. The staff was amazing, as well! My only complaint would be that an 18% gratuity was included (seemingly) on every check, not just large parties! The food cost 'may' have been inflated due to the music festival happening/extra traffic this weekend....but I don't know that for sure!

It's complemented with heart of palm, corn and a citrus vinaigrette. Great combo in my opinion. The vinaigrette wasn't as citrusy as I was expecting. The portion size was great and presentation was fun! I also could see the beach from anywhere in the restaurant. I sat at the bar for quick service, and the breeze today felt amazing. I'm giving it 5 stars for my experience. If I try more items or a cocktail, I will update my review.

Tastes were free & any following shots were to be paid for...... but that isn't what was happening. The food was average at best while the prices for said meals were astronomical! A small pepperoni pizza was $26! A single piňa colada was $15. A single piece of beer-battered fish with fries was $33! Add on an already included 20% tip (disguised as a service charge,)another 5% event charge, and then a 3% credit card surcharge = $107 for 2 people to have lunch among hundreds of young adults consuming copious amounts of 'free' alcohol WITH the servers who were on the clock! We will NOT be back! Leaving tables unattended so you can drink with other customers is uncalled for! The owners of this establishment should be ashamed that they all such behavior from their servers.
