    Fish tacos delish. Rice so tasty
    Aurora A.

    This restaurant was in Grand Prairie.right next door to cvs. This is the first time we tried it and we loved it. Good price for what you get. My was 13.50. Tony's was 12.50. I had 2 beers and Tony's Margarita. Total bill with tip. 59.45. I hope this helps

    Yummy soup

    Muy rico, buenas micheladas y comida. El pulpo fue mi favorito. La paloma es muy refrescante y rica.

    Excellent service!! Waiter was super nice & helpful. Food was so delicious! They served us chips as well which I did not expect. I'll come back for the frozen mango margarita anytime:) We had a great date! Highly recommend.

    The music and food were great! The "molcajete" was amazing. It had lots of variety and it even looked really nice! I would definitely recommend going! I went with a group and portions seemed good and everybody loved their food! Will definitely be back!

    My friends and I are on a cross country road trip and were really craving a seafood boil--We found…read morethis spot on Yelp, about 15 minutes from our hotel, so we decided to check it out. -- Combo #1, which lets you pick 3 out of 4 seafood options for $47, plus corn, sausage, and potatoes. We chose crawfish, mussels, and shrimp head-on with Cajun&Garlic butter--it tasted super tangy for some reason, I think they may have accidentally added lemon pepper but it was good still. --My other friend got 1 lb of crawfish and 1 lb of shrimp with mild Louisiana sauce, which was sweet and buttery. The Louisiana sauce is definitely the go to choice, if you dont know which to get. --We also got rice (a bit dry but perfect for soaking up the sauce) and steamed broccoli, which was cooked deliciously. -- And the only other thing I would mention, is the shrimp and mussels were of good size but the crawfish was on the skinnier/small size.. a little disappointed but still great, nonetheless. The service was great, and everyone was really friendly. Ambiance wise, the store is small and decorated with a beach shack vibe.

    I have always loved my food that I have gotten at the seafood shack…read more Tonight I ordered by the drive-in, the tacos Vallarta with the fish. I got home and there was no cabbage slaw nor the white sauce only the orange sauce in my taco order.... the cabbage slaw is what sets these fish tacos off that are delicious. I've taken many people to this location & taking several of my Spanish friends from Mexico who loves this dish. I am very disappointed tonight because this does not taste as the usual order of taco Vallarta that I have gotten for several years now with your Mesquite location. I just called the store and got two people who could not speak any English and understand what I was trying to tell about my order. when I asked for the young girl who was at the drive-in window who spoke English she was not available. I talked to another young lady who did not really understand what I was talking about, but then she took my name and said the next time I come up there, they would give me an extra slaw. Duh, really!!! There should be someone at this restaurant that can speak English when there is something wrong with an order. The young lady asked me did I want to drive back up there; I told her NO - I live 15 minutes away. My meal that I was really excited for become very disappointing tonight. I know it's a Friday night, but that doesn't matter where the quality wasn't right, not what I'm used to.

    The food was amazing. I recommend trying the shrimp enchiladas & hush puppies…read more Other than great food, it's super affordable and convenient for big families. The only thing I'd suggest is having more space for people to sit comfortably as it is pretty small and tables are too close to each other.

    We tried Fish & Tails Oyster Bar for dinner last night after it was recommended by my cousin (who…read morelives nearby and had just gone a couple weeks ago), and I'm so glad we did! At first, we were a little intimidated by the menu--there are so many good options--but we were starving and ready to dive in. We grabbed seats at the bar, and honestly, that ended up being perfect. They had saltine crackers out (lifesaver while deciding), and once they opened up the garage doors, the whole place felt airy and relaxed. The temperature and atmosphere were spot on. We started with Miller Lites, and they even made me a strawberry mocktail, which I loved. For appetizers, we shared the calamari--crispy, fresh, and a huge hit (especially with the dipping sauce). I also got a cup of the red beans and rice, which was super flavorful and comforting. For mains, I ordered the shrimp pasta, and it did not disappoint--very Alfredo-ish, with perfectly cooked shrimp, broccoli, and delicious garlic toast on the side. Jason went with a combo platter loaded with fish, fried oysters, hush puppies, and fries, and he was more than happy with his choice. Overall, we really enjoyed everything--the food, the vibe, and the experience. We're already looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu!

I ordered the catfish and shrimp fried basket and a margarita, all of which was delicious ! My babe ordered a fried whole catfish (the main reason he loves this place), sausage, red beans and rice and a margarita. Everything was good except the red beans and rice... it was literally red beans and rice mixed together. Overall it was a great outing, with great food. We really enjoyed hanging out on the patio while eating. We will definitely go back
