Fish tacos
Carli T.

We have been here multiple times since we really like the food, service has been always great, the meal we get look amazing every time. The place is very clean + is pretty decent too for families. Its super busy during lunch time I do recommend ordering online once you get there go straight to the Pick Up area instead of waiting in line. & eat inside restaurant.

Happy hour
Quiana T.

I was surprised at the ambiance. The space is larger than I expected. The area was clean with open seating. The service was pretty good. Our orders were placed for a to go order and came out in a timely fashion. They have a very extensive menu. I tried the snow crab with the spicy Cajun seasoning. It was not as spicy as I would have liked but still good. My daughter had the chicken strips. They were pretty standard to most places. Lastly, my mom ordered the shrimp and she said they were ok.

Shrimp boil (add sausage, add eggs, add potato and corn)
Andrea B.

We ordered a shrimp boil (with each additional add on) a kids shrimp basket, a shrimp po boy and a coconut shrimp basket. The general consensus is it was okay. Nothing special. Our order took an extremely long time for what we ordered. The order was delivered one plate at a time and very staggered. Almost as if they only had one fryer going. Two of the orders had the sides swapped with the other persons entree. We asked for the sides to be corrected, the employee struggled with communicating with us (due to a language barrier) told us to just change them out ourselves with the other person in our party per his boss. After about 10 minutes the employee returned to the table with one of the sides in a basket and handed it to us.

Ceviche

Amazing cocktails. Fantastic service. Delicious Food. Such a fantastic experience from start to finish, friendly staff, great food, cool spot. We will be back.

Happy hour specials.

The place is new and my friends and I decided to try it and glad we did. The service is friendly and the food was amazing. The portion size is huge for the price. We will definitely be back! I got cod and didn't do the blackened seasoning and had it grilled instead and it was delicious! They have happy hour specials too!

Pineapple salmon
Vianey F.

10/10 experience at Fish and Tails!! This place is a must if you're in the Denton area. The food is delicious!! I love the pineapple salmon, and everything else that my family and I have tried is great. The crawfish is a must AND the salads are so good plus the portions are big. The restaurant was clean, it didn't feel crowded, and there was plenty of space with lots of tables. They also have beautifully painted walls with seafood drawings on them my toddler loved it. Service was friendly, attentive and fast paced! Get your money's worth and support local restaurants, you won't be disappointed.

Hubby loves raw oysters and he has been waiting so patiently for this location to open because it is right down the street from his work. We stopped in on a Saturday for lunch. He, of course, ordered 2 dozen oysters and grabbed a cup of red beans and rice, too. I ordered the pineapple mahi mahi with hushpuppies. Our order taker was friendly and got us through the line quickly. The "appetizers" came out within a few minutes of us getting our drinks from soda fountain and choosing a table. The red beans and rice gave us pause at first because they were really watery, but surprisingly they had really good flavor. Although they were loose/soupy, the broth was very tasty. The oysters were fresh, clean, and presented well (no broken or chipped shells to deal with). The hushpuppies were good, too. They were a little on the sweet side and could have used a little more onion, but pretty good overall. The mahi mahi was not that great, unfortunately. I enjoyed the seasoning on the grilled fish and the pineapple sauce was different in a good way, but the fish was very overcooked. It really needed the sauce! I opted for double veggies in lieu of rice and those were yummy. We'll definitely be back, but I won't order grilled fish next time.

Gosh dang it apparently I have to leave a review. FRICK! Ok pizza was 10/10 uhh staff was like…read more9.5/10 just because 10/10 is crazy. Uhh and location was cool next to a weed store. I'll leave Yelp a 0/10 though because how did it know I ate here?!? kinda crazy

I celebrated my birthday at Union Bear in Denton, and it was such a fantastic experience from start…read moreto finish! We started with some fun Halloween-themed cocktails. I ordered one made with pear liqueur that tasted just like apple pie! It was such a creative and delicious seasonal drink. For an appetizer, we ordered the UB Pretzel Bites, and they were INSANELY good! The pretzels were delicious, but the beer cheese and mustard really made the dish. These are an absolute must-order, and I would come back for them alone! For dinner, we had the chicken tenders and fries, which were great! The fries were perfectly crispy, and everything came with ranch, honey mustard, and ketchup for dipping. I also finished the evening with an espresso martini, which was absolutely delicious! To top everything off, we were treated to a complimentary birthday dessert, the "Chocolate Caramel Brownie Situation," and I genuinely think it might be the best thing I've eaten all year. It was THAT good! As amazing as the food and drinks were, the service was truly the highlight of our visit. Our bartender, Irving, was incredibly kind, attentive, and helpful throughout the evening. He went above and beyond to make my birthday feel special, and I can't thank him enough! Overall, Union Bear exceeded my expectations. Between the delicious food, creative cocktails, and outstanding hospitality, I couldn't have asked for a better birthday experience. I highly recommend stopping by, and I'll absolutely be back!

The interior is not at all my vibe--I'm not a fan of seeing skeletons when I'm eating or having all…read morethe blinds drawn so it's dark at midday--but the staff was very friendly, and my salad was excellent. Loads of fresh berries, and the shaved steak was perfectly cooked. When my friend cautiously told the person working the counter that the grilled chicken on her salad tasted a little off, the chef also came out and immediately offered to prepare her a whole new plate. They were kind and apologetic, and my friend enjoyed her dish once the issue was resolved. Personally, I probably won't be back. But I can see why Andersons is popular among the locals. If you're looking for fresh, quality fare and a quintessential funky Denton ambiance, put this one on the list.

We went on a Wednesday evening and it was pretty empty but that was perfectly fine for us, it…read moreseemed like they had a good outdoor space for dining as well but we stayed inside, which wasn't huge but not tiny. You order at the bar rather than the table, but we sat right by the front so we actually didn't have to get up to order haha. Everything we had was pretty good, but I would probably try new things next time because none of it was something I felt was a must to try again. We never got a chance to visit while they were in Roanoke, but I wanted to make sure to give them my business because I've heard great things about them! Would like to try again for a happy hour perhaps!
