First time checking out the Aquarium location and it was so much better than the downtown spot! The food was really good, and our server Rob made the whole experience even better. He was super attentive and took his time walking us through the menu. The big tank was packed with all kinds of fish, including a leopard shark which was a cool surprise. We're usually Landry's people when we're in Kemah, but we'll definitely be coming here next time instead.

The ambiance of this place is great. There's a lot to look at and the kids will be entertained looking at the fish the whole time. Service was good too but the food is not great and I need the food to be great. I had the coconut shrimp and my dad had the watermelon shrimp cocktail (which he enjoyed)At best it is just ok, definitely not worth the money. My family wanted to go here so we went but I am not a fan.

Drinks

The food was amazing--10/10. The service was really good as well; Jace was super attentive and really sweet. This building gives me Little Mermaid vibes, which was the cherry on top. If you are nearby, stop by--I highly recommend this place!

We went for my birthday celebration dinner. The service was great. The staff checked on us periodically to make sure we were ok. Family friendly atmosphere with a nice dinner feel. The food was hot, fresh, and tasty.

Whenever we visit Kemah Boardwalk, we make sure to dine at the Aquarium restaurant. We love the ambiance and the food is delicious. During our last visit, we received exceptional service from Alison who was so amazing. We came right before closing and weren't rushed at all. She provided excellent service with a smile, accommodated special requests and just made our dining experience even better. Highly recommend!

Great drinks!

My grandson loved the Aquarium Restaurant. I was expecting more aquariums. The place overall could use a little updating. It was a good experience. The service was excellent! The food and drinks were really good. Overall a great time.

Rob provided exceptional service, food was good and the views were great. The only downside I can think of is other patrons were very loud.

Athena's Corner - Greek salad with Gyros meat

Best Bites takes you to Seabrook!…read more Today, while visiting my grandson, we enjoyed a wonderful lunch at Athena's Corner Greek Restaurant in Seabrook, and it was absolutely delicious! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm Mediterranean charm. The restaurant is beautiful, inviting, and filled with Greek-inspired décor. You can choose to dine inside or relax on their lovely outdoor patio. Our waitress, Rachel, was exceptional--friendly, attentive, and genuinely hospitable. She made us feel right at home! We kicked off our meal with a couple of appetizers, and they were every bit as impressive as they were delicious. The hummus was smooth, creamy, and served with warm, fluffy pita bread. We also enjoyed the falafels--perfectly crispy on the outside, soft and flavorful on the inside, and even better dipped in their spicy feta spread! For my entrée, I chose the Lunch Special featuring a savory spinach pie, served with a fresh Greek salad and a cup of their famous Avgolemono (Greek lemon soup) . It was light, comforting, and packed with flavor. My grandson ordered the Chickpea Salad , a dish he loved so much on a previous visit that he couldn't resist ordering it again. That's always a good sign! My husband selected the Stuffed Shrimp Special . The plate was absolutely beautiful--jumbo baked shrimp stuffed with a savory crab dressing, served over a bed of mushroom orzo. It tasted every bit as incredible as it looked! If you're ever in Seabrook, Texas, and you're craving something fresh, flavorful, and satisfying, I highly recommend Athena's Corner Greek Restaurant. You'll enjoy a relaxing atmosphere, outstanding hospitality, and food that's made with care and bursting with authentic flavor. Best Bites Approved! Have you been to Athena's Corner? I'd love to hear what your favorite dish is! #BestBites #TastefullyHettyB

The restaurant does have a tv for any sports to be played during your dinner. The restaurant is very clean and decor is neatly placed throughout the restaurant. Prices were very reasonable. Athena combo was delicious, the homemade sauce was so amazing we asked for more. The Bougatza was so delicious and worth the wait for it to cook. The Greek salad was great so we decided to order one to go.

05/22/26 Schaffer's shrimp tacos are delicious !…read more Great service by Brittany. We will be back!!

Such as when this place was Opus Bistro, it gets 18 stars on the view and 2 stars on the noise…read morelevel. As for the food? It's OK. Service is fantastic. We came here recently for a Sunday lunch. Fortunately, there were only a handful of patrons here when we arrived (around 11:30). Within 30 minutes, the dining room was full, and we couldn't hear each other talk. I remember experiencing the same thing when this joint was known as Opus Bistro several years ago. Despite the noise, the dining room still offers an excellent view of the canal and the people pulling up on their boats. Again, the food here is OK. Nothing more. In fact, it was quite reminiscent of a Fertita-owned restaurant with lines of delivery trucks from Sysco and Gordon's lined up at the loading dock. More specifically, the coconut shrimp came out crispy with not much flavor beyond the cloyingly sweet sauce served alongside. The fries are battered. Not my bag, though they arrived at the table hot and crispy. (Since when do crispy fries need batter?!?) The tacos were average. Not bad, but nothing different than you would get at most other places. Same with the Caesar salad and crispy Brussels sprouts. The crab bisque tasted tomatoey. That's not a deal breaker, but I expect a garlicky, buttery broth that has been thickened with heavy cream. Not the case here, as this was flour-thickened with inexpensive ingredients. And the amount of crab was negligible. Those *are* deal breakers. The beer selection is fine here. And, again, the service was really good on our visit. Bottom Line: I totally want local businesses to succeed. But my money is also hard-earned, and I want the food to taste local and to be made with high-quality ingredients. When it doesn't -- and this place doesn't -- I might as well grab a Groupon and go to Red Lobster.

Came here on a recommendation & I'm glad we did. Indoor & outdoor seating. No wait to get seated…read more(we sat indoor) & prices were fair. Food came out a bit slow, they were busy but not jammed packed or full. Perhaps they were short handed but more about that later. For an appetizer the waitress recommended the Armadillo eggs, yep, good choice. Brisket stuffed in a jalapeños, delicious. Four in one order was plentiful for just the two of us! Our entrées were the SOS burger (brisket burger with cheese) with macaroni & cheese and a chicken fried steak with green beans & fries. Both were good choices, I judge a place based in mac n cheese & theirs was good! The green beans did relief to our heavy plates, lol. As I said at the beginning, service was kind of slow. Drinks were refilled at the end & we were right on the side where the staff walks through all the time. The wait staff was so down to earth, but I'd say maybe over worked? When I went to to the restroom there were three staff members complaining about call outs & how they needed to stay, as I was washing my hands a fourth member joined in with the same sentiments. They weren't rude to me or anything, they were courteous but seemed super stressed. I hope they are treated well!
