The food is very good, plus they give you generous portions. Worth the stop.

Local family owned spot inside of a renovated church. Place has tons of charm with many original…read moreelements intact, but modern at the same time. One of two places it looks like to eat in Founders Row. Came with a group of 7. We stood around the bar height tables and had drinks for about an hour before finally sitting down. The bartender took great care of us despite the size of the group and ensured we had everything we needed. Once we sat down, the real magic happened. We ordered a few apps for the table, calamari, spinach and artichoke dip and alligator bites. I only had some of the artichoke dip and some of the complementary smoked salmon dip they brought out. Didn't want to be too full for the catfish plate I ordered. The artichoke dip was made with smoked Gouda and was great. The other apps got great comments from other people in the party. I ordered a fried catfish plate that came with grilled shrimp, coleslaw and fries. Catfish was cooked perfectly and the grilled shrimp were delicious, great seasoning. The coleslaw is made with cabbage, green bell pepper and apple cider vinegar. Really great combo that worked well. Service was great especially for our large party. Our server who was also the bartender because we sat in the bar area kept a fresh soda water in front of me the entire time, never had to ask. The manager/owner? even stopped over to check in on us a couple of times. Stop in for a great meal, I wish I could return to try the crawfish etoufee.

What a handsome restaurant! Wilson's Seafood Restaurant and Grill has everything going for it. It…read morehas a beautifully restored building and unique location on Midlothian's Founder's Row. There's also an easy-going ambiance reminiscent of that Crescent City charm with a menu and service to match. We were delighted to see so much of the late David Wilson's cuisine on the menu from his Cedar Hill restaurant. His son Shawn has a jewel here and it was tough to decide on an entree. There are many enticing newer items. Special menu items included a Spinach Artichoke Dip, Steelhead Trout, and even Grouper! Our waiter, Tanner, was very kind and helpful. Eventually I ordered an old favorite, the Fried Seafood Platter with Fried shrimp, scallops, and catfish that came with a Remoulade, a sweet and spicy Cocktail Sauce and a delicious Tartar Sauce. Substitutions were not a problem and of the sides, I ordered the sautéed Spinach and a potato cake! My husband was easy. Wilson's Pot Roast was calling him. Cooked with Cajun seasoning and slow roasted, it's served with mashed potatoes, celery, carrots, fried onions and gravy. He also wanted some Jalapeño Hush Puppies. There was virtually no wait for our food or so it seemed. Our food arrived and it was terrific, first bite to last. Odd that I would enjoy a vegetable so much but the spinach was excellent and it disappeared. All of my Seafood was perfectly fried with even my shrimp tails edible - nice and tender and crunchy. The potato cake was also yummy. I haven't had one in some time. That thin fried shell with the creamy tasty interior ... My husband was over there seemingly playing in his fried onions and gravy. I had to laugh. And then try some. Ooooh. So good. He couldn't stop eating them. And the roast beef! Very tender and a huge portion. We were definitely impressed with our first outing. The restaurant is beautiful. A gorgeous bar takes up one side of room. There are tables with pews for seating, and others with a singular banquette on one side and chairs on the other. These tables can be moved. There are two unisex restrooms. Everything was very clean. The "Revival Tent" patio is equipped with fans and lighting and would be nice in almost any weather. There is ramped handicapped access in front. We're coming back soon. I was impressed with the environs, pricing, portions, quality and especially the service.

service was amazing! never had to wait too long for a server and our food came out just as fast!…read morethe seafood was extremely fresh and hot, and covered in the seasoning. we got cajun seasoning with spicy. we also got an extra cup of sauce on the side, but one cup is $5, so i would not get it again. the shrimp is jumbo, but a little bit hard to peel. the crawfish was juicy and big as well. the sweet potato fries are the biggest i've seen at a seafood place and they were crunchy and delicious. the eggs and potato did need the extra sauce as they tasted a little dry without it. however, the corn was perfectly coated in the sauce and each bite was an explosion of flavor.

I already left a review about this location before, and management responded asking me to come back…read moreand give them another try. I did, and this experience was even worse. The crawfish tasted old, like it had been sitting or reheated, and the seasoning was extremely weak compared to other locations. The sausage tasted undercooked, which is concerning on its own. What really raised a red flag for me was that something in my bag had a strange, almost soapy or chemical taste. That is not normal and points to a potential food safety issue. I ended up throwing the food away because I didn't feel comfortable continuing to eat it. When it comes to seafood, freshness and proper handling are critical, and this location is clearly missing the mark. There is a major inconsistency in quality compared to other locations. This wasn't just a bad meal, it felt like a potential health concern. Management asked me to give them another chance, and unfortunately, this visit confirmed the problem rather than fixing it.

On Thursday, February 12, 2026, I was blessed to be able, to attend an luncheon meeting with some…read more individuals, that I met, at this really nice restaurant, with some delicious food and mouthwatering peach tea. Our waitress, was very nice and she made sure, that we all, had everything we needed to enjoy our meals. The food was cooked hot and ready to eat, that the wonderful waitress brought out to us Since, we were in the restaurant area that is used for meetings, there was no additional, music or any other talking, that was in the main restaurant dinning area, that interfered, with us in the luncheon meeting. The food is really good their, everyone enjoyed their food meal, that they ordered. I recommend, this restaurant and I will be returning.

The food was excellent, but the atmosphere and service felt unusually heavy, which made the visit…read moreless enjoyable than it could have been. Food The entrées and sides were the highlight of the visit -- well‑prepared, flavorful, and worth the price. *Garlic Caper Salmon -- ***** ($22.00) Perfectly cooked, great balance of flavors. *Blackened Rainbow Trout -- ***** ($20.00) Seasoned well, cooked just right. *Iced Tea -- **** ($2.99) solid, nothing to complain about. *Banana Pudding -- **** ($8.00) Tasty, comforting dessert. *Bread Pudding -- *** ($9.00) Decent, but not as strong as the other dishes. *Service & Atmosphere This is where things fell short. The service felt detached, as if the waitress was distracted or simply going through the motions. The overall vibe in the restaurant -- felt unusually downcast, which affected the dining experience. *Would I Return? I would absolutely visit this franchise again, because the food is worth it. But returning to the Burleson location specifically is questionable based on the atmosphere and service during this visit.
