"This review is for the Mermaid Lounge, NOT the mermaid show, the aquarium, or the art gallery.\nThis is a wonderful, serene little lounge in the Silverton Casino next to the Aquarium near Bass Pro Shop. THIS IS NOT A STRIP PARTY BAR, so if that's what you're looking for, skip it. And there's no music. There is a bar, of course, and several tables with barstools, and some conversational lounge areas, but the best part of this lounge is the long row of stuffed, high-back armchairs facing the aquarium. It's a wonderful place to just sit and relax while planning your evening activities, waiting to meet friends, or unwinding after a show or a long night of gambling. You can just sit comfortably and watch the fish swim by as you contemplate what you're going to pawn for your plane ticket home. Bonus: the food and drinks here are reasonably priced. Although it calls itself a restaurant as well as a lounge, it really only serves a limited selection of standard bar food. What they do serve is very good, however; I can recommend the fried calamari and the parmesan fries. The drawbacks: the kitchen is open irregularly. Don't depend on being able to order food here; I've been left hungry on more than one occasion when the kitchen certainly should have been open. Also, service can be nearly non-existent; you may have to go up to the bar to get your drink if things are busy. But you won't mind, just relax and watch the fish swim lazily by."^^ . "4"^^ . .
