Where to Buy Aquarium Restaurant Gift Cards: Deals, Rewards & Miles

Aquarium Restaurant gift cards work at the underwater-themed dining rooms in Houston, Denver, Kemah, and Nashville — and at every other Landry's restaurant, from Morton's to Bubba Gump. They never expire, carry no fees, and come in physical or digital form. The ways to buy them differ on speed, denomination caps, and what you earn back on the purchase. Here's how each one works.

What an Aquarium gift card gets you

An Aquarium Restaurant gift card works at every Landry's-owned location, not just the aquarium-themed dining rooms — the same card spends at Morton's The Steakhouse, McCormick & Schmick's, Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., Rainforest Cafe, Saltgrass Steak House, Mastro's, Chart House, and more than 600 restaurants nationwide. It also covers the attractions attached to the Aquarium venues in Houston, Denver, Kemah, and Nashville: the shark tank, the train ride, and the gift shop. There are no activation or per-use fees, and the balance never erodes from dormancy charges.

two formats:

  • Physical card: Mailed in a gift sleeve, redeemable at any Aquarium Restaurant or Landry's location. $10 to $500 per card.
  • E-gift card: Emailed within minutes, shown on your phone or printed. $25 to $200 via Dyme; up to $500 through Landry's directly. Works at the table or at the attraction box office.

You can apply more than one card to a single check at the table — hand them all to your server. There is no published cap on how many cards stack on one bill.

Can I get a Aquarium gift card at a discount?

Yes, but not through Dyme. Dyme sells Aquarium Restaurant e-gift cards at face value; the value-add is Dyme Miles and instant paperless delivery, not a face-value markdown. The discount channels are:

  • Landry's seasonal bonus-card promos. Around the holidays and other promotional windows, Landry's runs bonus offers — for example, a free bonus card with a qualifying gift-card purchase. The bonus is effectively a discount on your next visit, but it rotates and isn't always live.
  • Secondary marketplaces (Raise, CardCash). Resold Landry's and Aquarium Restaurant cards usually list a few percent below face value. Verify the balance before you redeem, since secondary sellers occasionally post cards with partial balances.
  • Landry's Select Club bonus dollars. Joining the loyalty program puts a $25 welcome bonus on your account and a $25 birthday reward each year, plus points that convert to dining credit. That's a discount on the meal, not on the gift card itself.

The bigger combined return comes from the rewards stack below: your credit card, Landry's Select Club at redemption, and Dyme Miles on the purchase. Most buyers leave that stack untouched.

How to stack rewards

Three rewards programs fire on a single Aquarium Restaurant gift card purchase through Dyme.

Credit-card rewards

Your credit card earns rewards on the Dyme purchase.

Gift-card resellers typically code as MCC 5947; many cards exclude this MCC from dining and category bonuses, so the purchase usually earns the card's flat base rate.

  • Capital One Venture X: 2x miles on essentially every purchase, including gift cards
  • Citi Double Cash: 2% back on everything (1% when you buy + 1% when you pay)
  • Amex Gold: falls back to 1x on gift cards. The 4x dining bonus does not apply to a gift-card purchase
  • Chase Sapphire Preferred: falls back to 1x on gift cards. The 3x dining bonus does not apply

Landry's Select Club

  • Join cost: $25 one-time enrollment, credited back as a $25 welcome reward
  • Applies at: redemption
  • Earning rate: 1 point per $1 spent on dining and attractions
  • Reward threshold: 250 points = $25 in dining rewards

Select Club does not earn on the gift card purchase. It earns when you redeem the card on a meal or an attraction, at the same rate as paying with cash or credit. Membership also includes a $25 birthday reward and priority seating across all Landry's brands.

Dyme Miles

  • Base rate: 1 Mile for every dollar
  • Special rate: 5 Miles per dollar
  • Expiration: never
  • Blackouts: none
  • Redeem on: over 2 million hotels and 600 airline partners

$100 Aquarium Restaurant e-gift on Dyme, paid with Citi Double Cash, redeemed by a Landry's Select Club member

  • Citi Double Cash: $2 back (2% of $100)
  • Landry's Select Club at redemption: 100 points toward the next 250-point, $25 dining reward
  • Dyme Miles on the purchase: 100 Miles (1 per dollar), or 500 on a special offer (5 per dollar)

Illustrative only. Card rates, brand-program terms, and Dyme Miles offers change and vary by member; figures above are examples, not a guarantee of value.

How to buy in store

Any Aquarium Restaurant host stand or gift shop sells gift cards, as does any Landry's-owned restaurant. Tell the host the amount you want, pay with cash or credit, and walk out with the card. You can load any whole-dollar amount from $10 to $500, and the card is redeemable immediately on the same visit.

Designs and personalization

Physical cards: a standard Aquarium Restaurant design plus general Landry's designs, with seasonal and holiday options in the online catalog. A gift sleeve and a printed message are available at checkout.

E-gift cards: a digital Aquarium Restaurant design with a customizable subject line and recipient message.

There is no co-branded or custom-art option for individual purchase. For bulk orders, see corporate ordering below.

Delivery and timing

  • E-gift via Dyme: 1 to 60 minutes by email. Show it on a phone at the table or print it.
  • E-gift via landrysinc.com: 1 to 60 minutes by email.
  • Physical via landrysinc.com: 5 to 10 business days standard. Express options available at checkout.

Volume orders qualify for custom denominations and bulk invoicing. Contact the Landry's corporate gift-card team to set up an order.

Frequently asked questions

Where can I use an Aquarium Restaurant gift card?

At any of the Aquarium Restaurant locations in Houston, Denver, Kemah, and Nashville, including the attached attractions and gift shops, and at any Landry's-owned restaurant — over 600 locations including Morton's, McCormick & Schmick's, Bubba Gump Shrimp Co., Rainforest Cafe, Saltgrass Steak House, and Chart House.

What denominations are available?

Physical and e-gift cards run $10 to $500 in whole-dollar increments through Landry's directly. Through Dyme, e-gift cards are available in presets of $25, $50, $75, $100, $150, and $200.

Do Aquarium Restaurant gift cards expire?

No. The cards never expire and carry no dormancy or service fees. The full purchased value stays on the card until you redeem it.

Can I use the gift card for the aquarium attractions, not just dining?

Yes. At the Houston, Denver, Kemah, and Nashville locations the card covers the shark tank exhibit, the train ride, and gift-shop purchases, alongside the restaurant check.

Can I check my gift card balance?

Yes. Enter the card number and PIN on the Landry's gift card balance page, or ask any server to check the balance at the table. No account registration is required.

Can I use multiple gift cards on one check?

Yes. Hand all the cards to your server and they apply each one to the bill. There is no published cap on how many cards you can stack on a single check.

Can I return or refund a gift card?

No. Aquarium Restaurant gift cards are non-refundable once purchased. They can be re-gifted or applied to any future visit at an Aquarium Restaurant or Landry's location.

Does buying a gift card earn Landry's Select Club points?

No. Select Club points accrue when you spend the card on a meal or attraction, not when you buy the card. The earning rate at redemption is the same as paying with cash or credit.

Can I sell an Aquarium Restaurant gift card I won't use?

Yes. Secondary marketplaces like Raise and CardCash buy unwanted Landry's-family gift cards, typically paying a percentage of face value depending on demand. List with the card number and balance; the marketplace verifies and pays out by ACH or check.

Does Landry's offer corporate or bulk gift cards?

Yes. Landry's runs a corporate gift-card program for employee rewards and client gifts, with custom denominations and bulk invoicing across all its brands. Contact the Landry's corporate gift-card team to start an order.

Are e-gift cards delivered instantly?

Usually within 1 to 60 minutes. Gmail's Promotions filter occasionally delays delivery — check there if you don't see it arrive.
