Great food. I love the egg rolls. They make the fried okra to order, and it's delicious. My daughter orders the chicken, it's the best around. They have seafood, but I don't eat seafood, so I can't speak on it, except to say it's popular. It's basically a drive thru. There area couple of tired tables, but it's not pretty. They also have sno cones. Just don't expect to dine in. read more

Excellent food and service! Fried fish and chicken both as good as I have had! We will be back!

I ordered the #7 which is the fried shrimp. It gave frozen out the bag. The breading doesn't stick to the shrimp. The fries come unseasoned.

The catfish and shrimp is worth every penny. Fresh and tasty!!!! Got the two filets with shrimp and had left overs. Great people serving you there. Definitely a try. read more

Good food and a great price. Could eat there weekly. The building is badly in need of repair and updating, and the menu can be a bit overwhelming. Otherwise, great local spot. read more

The seafood was AMAZING & CHEAP! I have been looking for a Louisiana style seafood place that wasn't expensive and here it is. The popcorn shrimp was everything followed by the fried fish. The seasoning for the jumbo shrimp needed work though read more

Great fish!!! And I love the fried. This fish is reasonably priced and very tasty. The service is fantastic.

A bunch of the guys from work tend to go eat here every month or so. Do not let the run down crappy area and exterior of this place turn you away. The food is great! The portions are huge and scalding hot from the fryer, The staff works hard to make sure things go right. No one so far has been able to understand the older guy because of his thick accent but that's part of the charm of the place. The cooks are great and prices are reasonable. The fish and chicken is delicious Now the bad parts. It's a bit run down with very limited seating. Everything is fried mostly. The one time I got catfish nuggets they had that dirty taste occasionally. Limited parking. Sometimes you can find "eccentric" or persons with substance problems walking around but again Go for the food!! I'll be back read more

My favorite fort worth spot , I always get the catfish , or the tenders , or the popcorn shrimp , or the popcorn chicken , or the shrimp fried rice , wit a sweet tea lemonade, it goes forever , read more

Best fish in the DFW metro plex tell me I am lying and I will call you a liar. Found this place by accident too.

Is the food always piping hot?...Yes! Are you going to eat and get full?...Yes! The biggest issue is the fact that the "catfish filets" are NOT catfish, they are indeed Swai. The two fish cook similarly so most people probably don't notice, but I did. The meat within Swai filets has a mushier texture when compared to a true Catfish filet. While Dan's seasons the fish nicely and its cooked fresh, it is not catfish filets that you're consuming. On the other hand, the nuggets ARE catfish so if you're wanting the true catfish taste go with those instead of filets. Just beware, on occasion they will taste of bleach. Feel free to order both and compare them, you'll see the very obvious difference. read more

I have been looking forward to trying this place since I read all the great reviews. Turned out it was closed the day I came, with a sign saying they would be open the next day. So I came back the next day. That said, I could give this place two stars, but I understand people have different taste that I do, so I will try and give the benefit of the doubt. Or it could have just been a bad price of fish that slipped through. Here is my beef- the breading is a coarse grind of cornmeal, and it's so thick, it's like armor plating. The fork I was provided was no match for that breading, the tines yielding to the point of snapping off. I had to pick it up ( not good during the COVID crisis) and break it in half, at which point I realized there was more breading than fish and the fish was so thin, I might as well have been eating deep fried breading. Moving on to the shrimp- they were fairly large and plump with a good flavor, but again that armor plating of cornmeal. ‍ As for the oysters- probably the worst I have tasted or seen- mostly black inside when I broke open the crust. The fries were crinkle cut- so frozen- but I like crinkle cut fries so no complaints there. The target and cocktail sauce were both very good. So who knows? Maybe a new cook after a long COVID shutdown, and he stunned his toe when making the cornmeal batter? I can't explain away the thinness of the fish. But a lot of folks just might like it that way. I'm afraid I just can't give this another try. But you might, and might find something totally different after reading this. Best wishes to them. I know COVID isn't doing any restaurants any favors. read more

Service was great, portions were very large, and food was amazing! I would recommend!

One of my favorite spots. Fried rice instead of fries is my go to. This is as good as fried food gets. The shrimp tastes like the ocean. Some of the staff has been there for years. So consistently perfect. If it was a fancy place, they could get $30 a plate. read more

Made fresh to order, and customer service is nice. Although the catfish is good, please be aware it's not real catfish

Fish is always hot and fresh, they give massive amounts of food. The will be a wait, but it is worth it.

Service was terrible today in the drive thru .. older Asian lady working the window, closed the window while I was still talking then opened saying whaaat ma'am like I'm bothering her then closed it again ... wow, just terrible.. been here many times without issue, they need to keep her in the back somewhere.. just rude! read more

Have tried Dans a few more times and never been disappointed! The filets are good. I always add some spicy seasoning when I get home like slap your mama or Tony's. That's just me. Good without it. I plan to try more menu items but the catfish filets are my go to. read more

I normally order whole catfish, but I wanted shrimp and oysters today. I ordered 1fillet,shrimp and oysters. The oysters and shrimp were really good, but that fillet not so much. I assumed I was getting a catfish fillet, but the taste and texture was waaaaaay off. Not sure what kind of fish it was, but it definitely wasn't catfish. I'll definitely have to go back to the whole catfish. read more

Two words, tasty catfish. I have been working in the Fort Worth area for eight years, have driven past this place many times onto other places and have never once stopped. Until I saw the Yelp reviews. who knew? Tasty, tasty catfish and the two fillet combo is really big. Like other reviews, the fries and piece of white bread are nothing to remember, but the fish is another story. Flakey, salty, crisp at the edges and just plain good. Add some hot sauce and tarter sauce and you won't need anything else for the rest of the day. Definately try this place. Enjoy. read more

Amazing Fresh delicious Chicken & Fish! I've had Dan's at this location and the Oak Cliff location and it is so soo delicious! Made fresh to order!!! read more

Food is super fresh! They have you order and pull around to wait for the food to be made. Wait it never super long but worth the extra few minutes. Whole family enjoys it. Fried catfish, chicken, shrimp and French fries always hits the spot. Even have snow cones ...yum! read more

Really good, I've been to a lot of these places and this ones up there. I went for lunch and as soon as I walked in I noticed the prices, they're really high for a chicken and fish spot. I got a shrimp and fish combo that comes with fries. She said drinks weren't included in any combo so that pushed it up even higher. Got the food after about 7 minutes and got some ranch, ketchup and tartar sauce. The fries were pretty good, the fish was really good and big but the fried shrimp was great and battered so well. Really good place I'd come again but just couldn't get to 5 stars. read more

Dan's Seafood & Chicken - Shrimp and fish combo with fries. - Seafood Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

Yuk! Where do these good reviews come from? This food fish or chicken we had it all. This food is very greasy. . The old unchanged grease that you can smell and taste. You know they rarely change the oil, just probalyadd to the rancid grease. Service is barely. I mean they don't roll their eyes at you but you do feel they could care less about you coming back. All while checking their nail and hair. The fish is old, the breading is good but once past that the dish is like slimy chewed up paper, old. Chicken was ok but strangely slimy. Setting that aside, the smelly grease says it all. read more

Best soul food around! The catfish, shrimp are perfectly cooked. The okra is one of the best around! read more

This was the place to go when you needed a good reasonable fix. food prices went up and food quality went down. I ordered chicken strips and they were half done. read more

A little salty and pricey for what you get. The service was fast but the quality was so so. I maybe a seafood snob. The shrimp was big but not much flavor. read more

I was craving fried seafood and picked this place solely on the Yelp reviews. First, let me tell you what none of the other reviews said. This place is a dump! (Sorry meant to type dive.) I was glad that I was packing some heat by looking at the clientele. I did have to stand in a good long line to get to the counter to order. An outdated menue on the counter said 2 sides came with entre but when I ordered they told me french fries only. Pay more if you want Okra. ( -1 star.) I was hungry and by recommendation of a self proclaimed loyal customer I opted for the Fried Oysters and Fried Shrimp combo with fires only. Sweet tea was very good and could send you into diabetic shock. (-1 Star, they charge $1 for refill.) Come on tea is cheap no need to charge for a refill. Shame on them. So after being nicked and dimed and no roll either my bill was $26. Now the oysters were awesome and perfectly cooked, the shrimp was average I have had better. Fries cooked just like I like them, just a hint undercooked for they are flimsy. Final thought: For $26 bucks I can eat seafood at a place with a table cloth and get all the free tea refills to my hearts content. Taking Dan's off my goo to list. read more

The chicken here is so good it be making my toes curl. I come here every once in a while and it never disappoints. Service is good and the owner Dan is a really nice guy. Definitely recommend everyone try this place. read more

Extremely fresh and hot food for a good price. The workers make me smile every time I go in! This place is a gem

WOWwwww!! I can't believe I'm the first Yelper to Yelp Dan's Seafood & Chicken. (BTW, I originally learned about this restaurant from my father who works within the area so... the credit goes to you Dad.) I can describe this place in four words. "Inexpensive Tasty Fried HappyTummy" (Whatever, HappyTummy is one word) For the health conscious out there; there are grilled options, but why have grilled when fried is where it's at. Seriously, I can get a huge container of fried (10 pcs) fish nuggets, popcorn chicken, a ton of fries and hushpuppies for around 12-14 bucks and this is usually plenty of food for about 4-5 meals. This time, I decided to get the single filet fish meal (big piece of cornmeal covered white fish, with fries and a piece of Texas toast - but not toasted). (see pictures attached) I think everything is made fresh (I'll have to remember to try to call an order in ahead in the future), so I had to wait about 8-10 minutes for the food to be ready. (...and it is so worth the wait) My goodness, the fish has such a great flavor (plus it's crunchy on the outside, flaky on the inside). The fries are OK (a little stale-ish / under salted for my taste, but decent) and the bread is... well white bread. Oh, and to make the meal even better, we decided to order the corn nuggets (basically fritters). Geez, these things are freakn' awesome too! Certainly a hidden gem that the locals in the neighborhood know all too well about (this place stays pretty steady when I visit) and should be on every local Yelpers bookmark to try. :D read more

The young man who took my order told me, if you can name it they can cook it! Which I can believe! They have everything on the menu. I order the 10 piece catfish nugget and 6 fried shrimp. The food was cooked to order and I really like that. The employees seem to enjoy their jobs too. Everyone working there was friendly and seem to have great spirits. The front end was clean and they had plenty of menus all over so you cannot miss anything. The restaurant was also very clean. I know that this is a place I will return. read more
