Modern Grove Restaurant

The place was so beautiful. The best I have seen. Colorful. Never bored. Easy to get around. Interactive things for kids to break up the exploration. My favorite aquarium. Worth the price.

One of the best aquariums I have visited in a long time. From start to the finish this place it amazing. So many amazing exhibits and demos. I always felt like the care for all the fish and sea life was their priority. I was so impressed with their interactive exhibits too.

We love coming here. So much we’ve had annual passes for the last 2 years. I’m my opinion, that’s the way to do it if you plan on coming more than twice a year!

We came here when it first opened, this was most definitely a experience we did not forget. I did wish it was a little longer for the price but overall we couldn’t have have a nicer time here with great people. This aquarium had to be the cleanest I’ve ever been too, it was great being in such a beautiful area. Thank you for making it a trip to remember

We came here on a rainy day and had a great time. There is so much to see (even in the bathroom!!) and the place is well-maintained. The staff all were friendly and helpful and seemed to truly care about the fish and animals living here. We came on a weekday so it was not too crowded. The rotating exhibit is VERY cool, however, I would recommend earplugs as the voice-over they play while you are on it is extremely annoying.

Wow what can I say! We came on a family trip here and brought my niece and nephew. They absolutely loved it. And all the adults had a great time to seeing all the animals and the information about them all. Definitely a place for the family! Highly recommend stopping for a day and see it. They also have other exhibits you can do so it definitely can be a full day trip or just a quick in and out!

If you are in Scottsdale, you should definitely visit this place.Very beautiful and tons of fishes. See the photos I uploaded for better help.Very informative too. If you are going in the submarine room, don't do the mistake I did. Sit in the first row and enjoy the view.

Absolutely loved it! The bathrooms when you first come in are amazing and the place kept getting better. Went with my husband and we were also super impressed with how well the animals were taken care of. Will definitely be back when family comes to visit and we want to entertain them.

Very pretty place and a unique aquarium. A bit pricey though. Take the whole family here and you will easily spend $200-400 after you get food and 1-2 souvenirs or photos.

My 1 year old daughter LOVED the moving room. It’s a great way to spend a day. They have hands on exhibitions. The food court was pricey so I headed over to White Castle !

Had a really good time! First time here and it was clean, easy to get around, plenty to see and touch, and friendly staff. Only downfall is the price but don’t let that scare you away if you’ve never been!

This place is full of beautiful tanks and exhibits. They've got everything from clown fish to sharks, octopus to seals. Give yourself enough time so you can really enjoy the place. It's well worth the time and price.

This was my first visit to OdySea Aquarium and I was not disappointed! The employees were knowledgable and friendly. The information and exhibits were amazing. Definitely worth the money to take the backstage tour of the penguins! Plan on taking your time to tour the exhibits and watch the amazing fish and other creatures they have. This place is handicap friendly!

The Odysea Aquarium is a great place to visit and it’s educational for all ages! See aquatic life from around the world: sharks, sea turtles, penguins, sea lions, and more! There are opportunities to interact with animals, fish and stingrays. Right now they have the Titanic Exhibit and it’s like a step back in time! Upon entering the representative will give you a data card so that you can read about passengers on board. Check out the Survivor Boards to see if your person survived. See actual ship artifacts. Learn about the sailing conditions, which helps you get a feeling of what they went through.

This is a huge aquarium. There are many interactive things to do such as petting the sea anemones, several species of string Ray and a few sharks. Watching the otters being fed was fun. There is an interesting 3-D movie. There is also seating that moves to different windows with a cute explanation of the fish and sea lions on display. We spent a few hours there and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. My only complaint is the cost. For two seniors with a military discount it still cost $82.00.

Had an absolute blast! Our 7 year old was so excited and interested. Staff was great, patient and knowledgeable. Very fun time. We will be getting season passes for sure. We can't wait to go back see more and visit the other places!

Super fun! My Wife and I enjoyed it for a fun date. A little pricey but worth it. There are also other fun passes and deals you can get to venues that are at the same location. Fun for all ages.bsaw lots of kids there and everything was very accessible.

Good aquarium. Clean smelling and overall pleasant. One of the better aquariums in PHX area. Carousel commentary is terrible. Would like it to loop back around so you can go back easily if you missed something. Wife and I enjoyed ourselves. Staff was very friendly. Will attend again in future I'm sure.

This place was an absolute blast. This is a great place to go when you need to have some fun or get away from life. I've never been to an aquarium and this was the perfect one to see first! There is only one path you can take which prevents you from getting lost and wasting time. You can also go at your own pace, no need to rush! This is a great place for kids and adults. It wasnt too crowded or noisy at all. And if you like to do a little extra, there were other activities you can pay for inside the aquarium or exhibits you can pay to see outside the aquarium.

This aquarium was fantastic if you have kids or you’re just trying to find something todo. There are many places where they have staff speaking about the animals and informing you on everything you would want to know. There are stations where you are able to touch rays as well as anemone and other small aquatic life. The aquarium hosts a “rotating aquarium” which is very informative and one of the best parts of the experience. Would certainly recommend visiting this place.

Incredible place to visit! Lots of exhibits, numerous species of marine life, and even a sloth! Staff was very engaging and helpful, and they didn't shove our small group out of there after they closed. Will definitely return and recommend!

Love this place! Always have a great time at Odysea! Such a great aquarium. You can not miss the penguins, the otters and the voyager! We love going to the special night events.! Fun for everyone at this place.

TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE 4 : 30 DEAL! super cool place but we were able to see everything in an hour and a half. Very fun aquarium with knowledgeable employees. The aquarium was a lot of fun and had a huge variety of aquatic life. Awesome penguin exhibit, sting rays, shark tunnel, seals (who were very active and playful), jelly fish, massive alligator, and other really cool aquatic creatures. Fun place, very active animals, fun to see.

Not many places to enjoy aquariums in the desert. The staff is always friendly and willing to share some knowledge. I like to refer to them as desert docents of the sea. My favorite exhibit houses the lobsters. It is also quite relaxing to take the mock submarine adventure and learn about the undersea creatures in a lighthearted comedic fashion.

The employees were very friendly and understanding about my grandmothers disabilities and helped us with getting her a wheelchair. It’s a very clean place with beautiful animals, the gift shop was the cutest, and I particularly loved the penguins. I want to come back here next time I am in Arizona. :)

You know you notice how large this place is from the freeway but you have no idea how big until you go in. Yes of course you will notice that this is expensive and although I didn't like paying these prices we still enjoyed our time. My son, almost three had a blast and we may buy the annual pass next time so we can enjoy more often without feeling like we break the bank each time. I feel like you get what you pay for there. We were here for almost five hours which included lunch and a little jumping around at the event they had going on. It was nice to hear they also have rescued creatures here, regardless of how you feel about the place. Tons of different views for most of the aquatic sights. One really cool thing was the little ride going around from the different sights. From sea lions, sharks, and other beautiful creatures. I would recommend this place for you and your family.
