    Fried Oyster Po'boy
    John J.

    Mixed feelings on our dinners. However, service by Felipe was great. The crab cake appetizer was two large cakes and a small salad. The crab meat was gray and bland. The special grouper Oscar was ok but I didn't care for the hollandaise sauce. The big plus for the night was the blackened catfish and shrimp combination. It is served with fries and delicious coleslaw. I recommend the combo.

    This is a nice local restaurant with seafood. I had the gumbo and a catfish only. Everything was delicious and seasoned well. They also had happy hour everyday with different options on their menu. I look forward to visiting again.

    We've gone to another Anayas so we're familiar with the menu. The fish and chips were really good and well seasoned. My wife enjoyed her meal as well. I was surprised the place wasn't all that busy. Perhaps it's the location. It's actually easier and quicker to get to than the other store we've been to. We will be back.

    Margarita flight
    Jaquita L.

    Decided to come here for brunch and the three stars are for the service, which was good and the food didn't take long to arrive. Now on to the food: Margarita flight 5/10: I only drank 2 out of the 4 because I didn't care for the flavors of the other 2 and I'm not a fan of Tajin in my drinks. Catfish and shrimp 4/10: the portion size was nice, the fries and fried shrimp were good. The fish grilled and fried were disappointing. Lack of flavor on the grilled and fried fish.

    Salmon Salad
    Sherelle L.

    Went for a weekday lunch break and we were super excited since this place has so many good reviews! However, it turned out to be mid. The time and food here was not memorable to us. I got the salmon caesar salad and for the price I would have expected a different bed of lettuce not just romaine. The salmon was cooked well though, and the sauce was good. His meal needed more sauce, and the piece of chicken was small. Maybe we ordered the wrong things? but we will most likely not go back any time soon

    We enjoyed our meals. The crab cakes and hush puppies were on the starter menu. They were very good. The crab cakes were flavorful. I was told the catfish and shrimp were very good as well. A new place for seafood.

    Great food and great service. Didn't know what to expect but the appetizer dynamite shrimp was an early indication of seasoning and enjoyment. I had salmon and my husband had the Redfish

    Seafood Enchiladas

    All day Happy Hour on Saturday & Sunday, say no more! On a recent date night, the misses and I had a chance to try Anaya's after recommendations from a couple of friends. A smaller establishment Anaya's fancies your seafood lovers who enjoy cozy and quaint environments. Whether it's date night or grabbing a quick meal, Anaya's vibe caters to all. A pleasant surprise as well, all cocktails during happy hour at $7.95 an unbeatable tag for quality. Upon recommendations from the staff and a neighboring table, we opted for Stuffed Crab & Salmon, along with Seafood Enchiladas and Bang Bang Shrimp as an app. The seafood sauce on the enchiladas had bit of a kick however the flavorful profile was undeniable! However the highlight was a speciality item in the stuffed crab & salmon, so good the misses didn't like my fork coming across the table. Service and wait time for food were excellent for a Saturday evening. We'll definitely be back to try other menu items and enjoy happy once more. Kudos Anaya's

    This was the best food I have had in a long time. The Pineapple martini was absolutely delicious. The real star of the show were the crab Mac and cheese cakes. They are different and amazing! Our server was super fast and attentive throughout our visit. I can't believe this place isn't packed because it was SOOO GOOD!

    Ruby Red Trout

    This restaurant was an unexpected gem! It has a nice family-friendly atmosphere & a great menu. Once they heard this was our first visit the owner brought us a sample of their homemade soups to try. They were all excellent but the Roasted Poblano Creme Soup was my favorite! We ordered a dozen oysters & the Ruby Red Trout to split & enjoyed both. Portions were perfect. A small family-operated business with excellent service & delicious food!! We will be back on our next trip to Addison & I highly recommend!

    Mahi Mahi and blackened shrimp with spinach and fried mashed potato cake
    Meaux A.

    This was one of the best restaurants I've been to in forever. Food is fresh. Our server recommended wonderful dishes and drinks. I had the panko crusted Mahi Mahi with blackened shrimp, served on fresh sautéed spinach and a fried mashed potato cake. SO FREAKIN GOOD!!! My drink was the pineapple dragon fruit mojito and it was really good as well. So good my daughter had to drive! It was a little pricey, but it's Dallas and it's fresh seafood so it was expected.. The restaurant itself is open and bright. The entire staff is involved and knows the menu well. Overall 10 outa 10.. Will be back.

    Review: Pappadeaux (Dallas Pkwy) ​Rating: 5/5 stars (and 1…read morebypass surgery) ​Pappadeaux isn't a restaurant; it's a high-stakes endurance sport. I walked in a man and left as a giant, butter-filled bivalve. ​The Highlights: ​The Bread: That warm loaf is a siren song designed to ruin your appetite. I ate it like I hadn't seen a carb since the Great Depression, only to realize I still had five pounds of fried swamp-critters on the way. ​The Portions: My "Platter" arrived on a tray roughly the size of a solar panel. I found a piece of catfish so large I almost tried to perform CPR on it. I'm pretty sure the "Small" salad is just a whole head of lettuce thrown at your face from the kitchen. ​The Swamp Thing: This drink contains enough rum to make you legally a pirate. Two sips in, I was ready to fight an alligator. Three sips in, I couldn't remember where I parked my car--or if I even owned a car. ​The Atmosphere: It's loud enough to drown out your internal monologue telling you to stop eating. It's the only place in Dallas where you can spend $100 and still need a bib like a giant, fancy infant. ​Final Verdict: Go here if you want to feel like a king, but dress like you've given up on life. Elastic waistbands are not a suggestion; they are a requirement.

This place is pretty big on the inside with a full bar and plenty of seating. We were escorted to our tables and our waiter (Davion) was excellent. He took the time to go through the menu with us and offered some great suggestions. I personally ordered the Fried Calamari and Octupus along with the Fried Sampler platter. The calamari and Octupus were delicious with the white sauce. It wasn't exactly Tarter sauce but definitely did the trick. I wish they gave you more for an appetizer but still good nonetheless. The Garlic Bread was also delicious. Melted in your mouth and wonderful soft edges. Plenty to go around as they give you about 6 slices. My main course was the sampler platter. The catfish was crispy and soft. Golden fried and delicious. The crawfish nuggets were a little spicy but good as well. The shrimp were a good size. They come split. The chicken tenders were definitely tender. The fries were oh so good as well. All the friend fish and chicken arrive on a plate filled with fries. My entire meal was magically delicious. When I come back Pappadeaux will be a must stop for me. The food was wonderful. The service was amazing. My experience was memorable. I'll be back without hesitation.

As soon as I got home, I opened that tray and went straight for the hush puppies because listen, this lady loveee a good hush puppy lol, and they did not disappoint.

It wasn't enough to turn me away, and I'm glad I gave them another chance (& another, & another lol) because they've been consistent ever since. The fish and shrimp are always fresh, hot, and seasoned just right. It honestly reminds me of home. If you're from southern Louisiana, especially southeastern Louisiana...you already know the standard... so many places falsely advertise "that expectation of taste" but The Catch meets it. You will not be disappointed; highly recommend 1000%.

They were fairly prompt in processing my simple order of a four-piece shrimp basket. The shrimp were not butterflyed, and fried whole is more difficult, but I prefer it. They were above average for fried shrimp from a fast-food seafood place. The interior is clean but not really appealing to dine in, and The Catch is too far for me to be a take-away destination. Better than most.

The consistency is incredible -- the food is always fresh, the lobster and chowder are outstanding, and the steaks are just as impressive. The quality has never slipped over the decades.

The staff is welcoming and professional, and the clientele adds to the warm, classic atmosphere that keeps people coming back year after year.

The first five of us ordered drinks while we waited, and the remaining couples joined shortly after and did the same. Our waiter was fantastic. He was witty with a dry, sarcastic sense of humor that fit our group perfectly. He made the evening feel relaxed and fun, and we genuinely appreciated his attentiveness throughout the meal. We started with two orders of the crab fingers, the Maryland crab cake, and calamari. The crab fingers were the clear standout appetizer, as it was a unique dish that everyone loved. The broth was so flavorful that several of us soaked it up with bread and couldn't get enough. The crab cake was just okay, slightly fishier than expected. For entrées, there were some real highlights. The halibut special and the sea bass special were both exceptional. The Lefty's pasta is enormous and packed with flavor, another favorite amongst us. The chicken parmesan was solid for those not in the mood for seafood, though I'll admit I expected a bit more boldness in the sauce and a little more sauce overall would have helped elevate the dish. We didn't take many photos because we were focused on enjoying the company and celebrating the occasion. Everything felt celebratory and enjoyable until the very end. After we had paid our checks, a few of us were finishing the last of our wine and drinks. Within moments of closing out, the owner approached our table and abruptly told us he had a party of ten waiting and that we needed to hurry up. Had he given us five more minutes, we would have naturally wrapped up and left on our own, completely happy with the experience. He could have approached us with kindness and this result would have been so different. Instead, that interaction left us feeling rushed and unwelcome. We spent a significant amount of money and were not lingering excessively, so it was disappointing to have the evening end that way. With a little more grace at the finish, this would have been a five-star evening.
