My family really enjoyed the cafe. The aquarium was very entertaining and the food was delicious. The only downfall was the price of the food. It was extremely overpriced for what you get. We will definitely come back but will probably come with a not so hungry stomach.

Food and service have 1 star, but we never got either one.

Lunch here is not just for Bio Park Aquarium visitors. The Shark Reef Cafe has spectacular cuisine. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals. My hamburger was seasoned to perfection and dressed beautifully with dill pickle boards, tomato slice and green leaf lettuce. The homemade chips we’re a lovely addition to round out the plate. My partner had fish and chips (which he didn’t share) he said we’re crispy to perfection. Our compliments to the chef: the humble ginger we met on our way out. Oh, and you have to try the green sauce and cheese fries!

Loved this restaurant, the food was delicious and prices were not astronomical like I was afraid of. The family loved getting to watch all the beautiful fish while we ate. Would definitely visit again!

It is kind of spendy but the food is actually pretty good and the view of the shark tank is amazing.

A great place to dine… The food was tasty and plentiful… If you want a lunch with a view of sea turtles and sharks in an aquarium say less, this is the perfect place for you… The only issue was you might have to wait over 40 min for your food… The hot latte was decent…

Closed on a Wednesday??????? That sucks for me and my family. Also there is zero organization in the cottonwood cafe and they be sure to upcharge you for everything. For a couple burgers it came out to 125$ sheesh.

Always great fun at the Shark Reef cafe! It’s a great place because the kids are more than entertained during lunch, but so are the adults! It’s such a cool experience to “eat with the fishes” so to say! The food is pretty darn good too though it is not a cheap meal! You do not have to go to the aquarium to eat at the cafe and that is nice! It can make for a fun lunch date and some enrichment! Would make for a fun date too!!!!

Cannot believe this place exists in Albuquerque! The atmosphere is reminiscent of the restaurant in EPCOT (Disney World)’s The Seas aquarium pavilion that sells out of reservations 6 months in advance. Truly amazing design to have this cafe on the backside of the aquarium’s marquee exhibit.
