If you've got a car, park it in lots at Griffin and Hord streets. You'll discover more than 80,000 gallons of saltwater exhibits featuring sharks, stingrays, seadragons, jellyfish and giant groupers.

The menu features native dishes from the reefs' neighboring countries, like jaffle from Australia and mei goreng from Indonesia. The dishes are a savory departure from the burgers, pizza and nachos so prevalent in the West End.
