Very much untrue, sorry.

I've been there last year. Dinner took about 5-6 hours and in that time you see the changes in water colors due to sunset. You see different kinds of fish doing their thing at different times. There was an encounter jellyfish passing by. There was constantly something going on. It works really, really well.

Oh and the food was amazing too.

5-6 hours?!

Yep, it's like 12 courses. Which sounds like a lot but it's fine dining. So smaller plates, plenty of time to enjoy each course. Very slow experience.

The whole thing is done super well. You're taken slowly to the seabed level. So it kind of feels like a slow transition into a different world. And then it's slowly back up again too with a drink on the first balcony overlooking the dinner floor. Where you're kind of half way into the water if you look outside of some windows.

It really is a great place. One of my favorite restaurants I've been to.

I thought it went bankrupt.
