    Saw this location on a Tic Toc vid and wanted to try it out and it did not disappoint!! Seafood with a Mexican flair!!Portions were generous, seafood was fresh and delicious...and the cost was fair...margaritas are "full size" at about $10 each..entrees run~$20-25/person. We went on Sunday afternoon/evening and were treated to roaming Mariachi singers. This made the restaurant a bit loud...OK really loud, but helped make it great experience. If there was any issue...our waitress was not fluent in English...so we had to call over help to ask allergen questions...but we got it resolved and all was good. Check this place out!

    Birria sandwich

    The birria sandwich was amazing and I was full for the rest of the day. The drinks looked amazing, but it was just ok. The crab boil was hot and was a lot of food, but it was not seasoned the way we want the Cajun crab boil season. It was just spicy. Overall I would go back, but my wife would try something different and maybe just stick to beer. Overall good vibe and they do live music as well.

    Paella dish.  Great

    Paella was very good! Service was great. This was my first time visiting and I have no regrets.

    This place is phenomenal. The food was outstanding. We had a chorizo queso to start, and the fresh ceviche was so good! All three of us got different dinners, but we liked the hot stone meal the best. The paella was outstanding as well. Cannot wait to go back.

    The best food here is the sea food, a bit over price, but delicious. My favorite was the shrimp pasta. The ambience is a total vibe they have an actual live band playing. The service was good just very slow maybe because there's too many people and so little servers. If you go just know you will be waiting a while for food. Is good to go with a group of friends and talk and hangout while food gets served. The drinks were serve pretty fast.

    Date night place with live banda setting up around 7:30-8pm. Lots of drinks and seafood ! Large platters for big groups! More like a bar with food and live music after 8pm!!! Room to dance around too. I'll be back with my Guapo next time. Plan to spend $$$ but worth it! Mojarra frita was good. Needed some dressing for the salad and beans were a little dry. But the rest was excellent!! The chips and salsa and seafood dip idk what it was was yummy. Put it on the crackers and enjoy. Parking lot sucks full of holes! Be careful or come in a big truck. Servers was amazing and sweet!

    Reviewed March 6, 2019 A very disappointing Health Score of 43 out of 100 with a critical violation. The food was very good though. I hope they will clean this up! I don't always eat seafood in a Mexican restaurant. When we walked in at 11:30 we were the only diners in the restaurant. The waitress only spoke very limited English and we speak no Spanish. So it is point at the menu to order. No Iced tea. No problem, water works. I pointed at the Camarones on the menu and prepared with the Nayarit sauce (whatever that is). My wife pointed at the Carne, and somehow my wife understood that the waitress was asking how she wanted it cooked. Medium Rare! The meal starts with a small bowl of ceviche, crackers toasted corn tortillas, and screaming hot orange colored and green colored hot sauce. I am guessing the two were made with habanero and Serrano peppers. They were hot, but good, as was the ceviche. The food was spectacular and generous. The camarones came in a delicious red sauce with onions and the plate included, rice, a salad, fries, and toasted garlic bread. It was great! The carne came with a tender carne asada steak, rice, beans, fries, salad, a cheese enchilada, tortillas, grilled onions, and of course...a "chili toreado! The restaurant has a stage set up for a band. It is big inside and is laid out like a big music hall / sports bar. I am thinking that in the evenings this place is shaking. I'm glad we went for a fairly quiet lunch. The prices seemed a little high, but after seeing the quality, freshness, and quantity of the food, I felt it was fairly priced.

    If you come on a Sunday night get ready to party. This place has a live band with everyone singing along. The drinks were super unique and I felt like I was back in Mexico. If you're looking for unique seafood dishes that you can't get anywhere else, come here.

    Found this gem in Tulsa, in the corner of 21st St & Garnett Rd. Best Menudo I ever had, but little bit smelly from the beef tripe. The Fried fish is so good, very nice combination with coleslaw, homemade potato chips is very crunchy. The sauce is so good! I asked to put it on the side, instead of over the fish. Very delicious & recommended!!

    This is a really good place in the morning and lunchtime. I usually get filete empanzado it comes with Salad and rice and a delicious piece of garlic bread. But I have tried in the past a coco relleno it has crab, scallops, and octopus in a red spicy sauce with pineapple chunks which I loved! But they have many choices. 7 Mares is really good too! They do have the pepinos rellenos very fresh a very well served if you want something very healthy. So if you looking for Mariscos this is a great choice. I need to point out that I only come early here because after 3 pm it becomes a bar restaurant. So I wouldn't like it for my daughters to be here later in the afternoon. But mornings and lunch are good. I know they have a live group on Sunday afternoon and karaoke Friday and Saturday afternoon. The waitress is very friendly and the place is clean and with lots of showing sports or videos.

    This location has been in BA for a while, and I regret I did not try it sooner! My parents and I…read morevisited here for lunch on a Monday. We were promptly greeted by a friendly worker. She explained the different menu boards to us, one is for seafood boils, one is for fried food and one was the lunch menu. We placed our orders, grabbed our drinks and sauces and took a seat at one of the large, loungey booths. The sauces are self serve with tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, ketchup and malt vinegar. Our crab bites came out quick with a side of creamy (not spicy) remoulade sauce. We quickly dove in and were greeted with flavorful little nuggets of crabby goodness. Our shrimp and catfish platters came out next. The batter on both the shrimp and the catfish was incredible! It was cornmeal based, super crispy and well seasoned. You could see the flavor in the breading it was so good. The waffle fries were also exceptional. They weren't just there for backup, they were part of the delicious crispy flavor trio. The portion size was generous. I ate about half and took the other half with while my parents split a platter. The inside of the restaurant is very spacious and clean with a bright, modern feel to the space. It would be good for small or large groups. Again, I just wish I had tried this place sooner! I will be back ASAP to try some of the other menu items. The seafood boils look interesting, served with different flavored butters. I fully recommend this place for locals or if you're just stopping through the area and craving delicious seafood.

The…read morefood came out so fresh and hot that I could not eat as fast as I wanted to but no complaints there. Since it was my first time being able to get a daiquiri I took the chance and got a mango daiquiri. It had me spinning after a few sips but it was a perfect match with the food. The server was so polite and offered great alternatives if you wandered about mixing and matching menu items. My food ended up taking a while so they gave me an extra piece of fish and let's just say that I was certainly pleased with that gesture. I didn't eat it all In one setting, so I was able to take some home and actually have lunch the next day. The place was such a relaxed space and easy spot to consume your food. It wasn't too cold in there and it wasn't too noisy. I will surely return.

My wife had nothing but compliments to say about the boil. However, the calamari was very overcooked. I almost sent it back. It was just that badly overcooked. The service was magnificent some of the best ever. Everything was very reasonably priced. Can't wait to go back again. We were with another couple and they were highly complementary of everything as well. I made sure to tip the server well, because I work in the hospitality industry myself. I would have given them five stars, but the appetizer stopped that.

I ordered snow crab legs with garlic butter seasoning and boiled eggs, no spice. My friend ordered the same but hers was extra spicy. Our food comes out, I take one bite, and suddenly I'm coughing and choking like I just lost a fight with a seasoning packet. It was the same as her order -- definitely not what I asked for. I send it back, and the server returns suspiciously fast. I dig in again and immediately notice the crab legs are waterlogged, still a little spicy... and then I see them: my half-eaten boiled eggs from round one. That's when I realized--they didn't remake anything. They just rinsed it off added a different sauce and said, "Voilà!" My friend asked the server if they just rinsed it and recooked it and he actually said yes. I was disappointed, annoyed, and honestly confused--like, who does that? They didn't even try to hide the fact that they did that by refreshing the plate. My friend asked for it to be made fresh (which they finally did), but seriously... rinsing off someone's food and reserving it is wild. I was not prepared for that level of creativity.

    I hadn't been to Fish Daddy's for a number of years. Today after church my wife and I went for a…read moremid-afternoon lunch. Upon entering, there was already a waiting line to be seated and we were told it would be about a 10 minute wait. The restaurant was quite full, although we did see a few tables that were being cleared. It took us less than 10 minutes to be seated at a booth in the bar area. We had an excellent server who greeted us warmly, gave us a minute, at our request, before taking our drink order. We both ordered a Mexican martini which in my mind was essentially a margarita in a martini glass. This had an olive in the bottom and the drink had silver tequila, Cointreau, orange and fresh lime juice, handshaken or however you want it. The rim was salted. Quite yummy. For a starter, we decided to get onion rings. We were absolutely amazed at how large the portion of onion rings was. If you're an onion ring fan, I think you'll love these. They had a very light coating on them and they were cut fairly thin. Served with two different dipping sauces. They were scrumptious. I also have to say that the prices for literally everything on the menu were so reasonable. It's no secret that restaurant prices have been rising steadily the last couple years. I felt the prices here were several years behind the times. I'm not complaining about that. You get a lot of value when you go to Fish Daddy's. The portions are generous, and the prices are lower than you would think. We decided to split a FD's Combo. You choose three items from a list of seven and you also get to choose two sides. We ordered the cornmeal catfish, the chicken tenders and the fresh North Atlantic salmon. For the sides we choose green beans and a baked potato with sour cream and shredded cheddar cheese. By accident, the Kitchen sent out fried shrimp instead of the chicken tenders, but when I brought that to the attention of our server, he simply brought out chicken tenders and we sort of got the shrimp as a freebie. We had no complaints and were again amazed at the value and how good everything was. Even though the restaurant was quite busy, it was not loud at all. We had absolutely no problem conversing during our meal. Will definitely be a more frequent visitor now that we have reacquainted ourselves with Fish Daddy's Grill House.

The service was a little bit slow today, but they were quite busy. The waiter was very friendly and stayed on top of refilling my water which I appreciated because I drink a lot of water. The food was good quality as always. I enjoyed the different fries. I am sad that they no longer have fried pickles, but the guy said it's been like that for a little while so it tells me how long it's been since I've been here. I will always appreciate the prices and the good quality food that I get here.
