Fish Tales - Seafood Near Me - New Caney, Texas

Have eaten at Fish Tales many times in the past. Fish was good but portions are so small it is no longer worth it. I had the regular fish dinner and the five pieces were tiny. You do get your fill of undercooked fries but I did not go for a plate full of soggy fries to fill me up. read more

Tried Fish Tales for the first time tonight. Best seafood we have found in Houston so far! Fresh cut fries were a nice surprise We will be back! read more

Outstanding food! Huge portions! Be wary when ordering, portions took us by surprise, especially at that price point. Amazing place to eat! Highly recommended, if you like seafood. read more

Had fried shrimp with fries and hush puppies, food was hot and fresh! The customer service was amazing, will definitely be returning.

Well, it's been a few years, but I tried them again , and man have times gotten better!!!. Grilled Fish tacos were fantastic. Service was quick and made to order. I'm definitely gonna go back and try other menu items. I didn't realize it had changed management ( same owner ,different manager) with pride in her food.. strong recommendation on my part. read more

I went to Fish Tails to try their fried fish. I ordered the Duo which was Catfish, Shrimp and fries. I do not believe what I received was catfish, maybe sway?? But I didn't really like it. The pieces were super small. The fries were under cooked and hard. Overall I will not go back, wasn't pleased. read more

A nice little find in New Caney..this review is based solely on personal preferences. The food was good and tasteful..(could of used a bit more seasoning. (Personal prefrence) We had the fish, fried green tomatoes and onion rings. I will ask for it to be fried extra crispy next time (personal preference). The coleslaw was a little juicy (runny) for my taste. (Again personal preference).. customer service was great. Definitely will go back again and try some other items on the menu. read more

Cleveland location- staff is always super friendly and the food is always fresh and delicious. New Caney- This location is always short staffed. We waited forever to order then when we finally did get to order they were out of 3 of the 4 things we ordered. When they finally brought our food out it was cold. This was the second time this has happened. Needless to say we won't be back to the New Caney Location. read more

Fried fish and shrimp were fantastic! Britany was our waitress and was very happy and took good care of us! They did not have the steaks defrosted but we just got the fish and shrimp! So good. We will come again! read more

Ok, let's just say I was apprehensive to try this place due to the old reviews. BOY was that a mistake!!! The dining area was very welcoming and the staff was very friendly. The food was very good, came out hot and fresh and man there is a lot of it. This was our first time here and was not sure, so we ordered a little of everything we wanted to try. Fried green tomato's, onion rings, okra and the duo ( 5 fried shrimp, 5 fried catfish and fries). Let's just say I left fat and happy with food to bring home. We will definitely be back. read more

Ok.... Lets start with the help. They were very courteous. The little helper that was there was a cutie! The food...I ate the grilled catfish tacos. They were good EXCEPT it was swai and not catfish. Hubs had the Sampler...he said it was good but...it wasn't catfish. Big disappointment for us about the catfish but overall we rate them a 3. The food was good but the fish was not as expected. Boudin was good Fried Oysters good Fried Shrimp good.... O yeah..No signal so you have to ask for the wifi password read more

Fish Tales - Fish Tales info - Seafood Near Me - New Caney, Texas

It's a simple place with a simple atmosphere but the food is really good and the people are just as good. Very friendly, efficient, and we're glad we found them! read more

Menu prices are not what you pay;they are much higher. Food is warm at best. Service is awful. The girl behind the counter was on Snapchat while I stood there waiting for her to acknowledge me. read more

Fish Tales - This is an $18 plate. I was over charged on every single item I ordered. A side of fries was $6. - Seafood Near Me - New Caney, Texas

We finally decided to give this place a shot regardless of past bad reviews. We both agreed if we walked in and it was dirty or smelled dirty we would turn around and leave. I am so glad we went in. The place was spotless and it smelled really good, ,no heavy old grease smell at all. The service was fantastic and we were feeling pretty positive at this point so we started with the fried green tomatoes. Oh my goodness they were done perfectly and such a crazy amount. No way could we even eat half of it! Then we both had the fried catfish and shrimp with okra, fries and onion rings. Everything was super hot and cooked very well. The onion rings are a must!!!!! The fish were smaller nuggets and fried crisp and the hushpuppies were delicious with corn in them. I was amazed at the amount of food and we realized we had enough for at least 2 more meals. I was going to pass on dessert but peach cobbler is really hard to say no to so we got some to go and wow!!! Do yourself a huge favor and get the cobbler. It was amazing, peaches were cooked perfect and the perfect amount of cinnamon. I had it for breakfast the next morning and I want to go back for more! So back to those bad reviews many years ago.....I don't know what happened back then but whatever it was it has been fixed and the new management is doing an amazing job. Please give it a shot and leave a review because we need these small business owners and I want to enjoy more of that cobbler! read more

Fish Tales - Onion rings - Seafood Near Me - New Caney, Texas

Had a great fried shrimp dinner! Not fancy at all, but just great shrimp or Catfish. I had the crab cakes and were out of this world. Not so much crab in them, but still highly enjoyed and they were $3 each! One is enough. Very friendly atmosphere and customer just told me gumbo is good too! read more

Ate there and wasn't impressed. My wife ordered the surf and turf specifying the steak cooked medium. The steak came out like shoe leather. The excuse was something like the chef quit or they had get different steaks from a different place. If that was the case rand they werent happy serving them, they shouldn't have served it. Found out later that the "catfish" they advertise isn't actually AMERICAN catfish. Its fish called swai that is called "vietnamese catfish," but is in no way related to the catfish we think of. We'll never eat there again or any even where they are participating. read more

Edited to add... Fish Tales is located at the corner of Loop 494 and FM 1485. the map is wrong. read more

Ughhhh.! Its a love hate relationship with this place.... i love the food.! I usually get their shrimp n fries platter and it never disappoints! The thing i hate is the way the place is ran by the staff. I usually like to call in my order for pick up during lunch time. They always say it will be ready in ten minutes but knowing them as well as I do now i know to give it 20 but even then when i get there my food is not ready/packed yet.. the staff can not multitask and im always standing there for 10 minutes to pay for my order or waiting for my order its frustrating! read more

Food is pretty good, price on most items are alright with some items being way over priced. The verity of the menu is great, quite a lot to choose from. read more

My very first time and have been told this was a cool local spot....well they were right Can not go wrong on the shrimp po boy And gumbo I suggest this local spot read more

My 2 sons and I just moved to Splendora from Arizona and decided to unpacking and eat out. We stopped in this restaurant to eat. The lady owner who waited on us was a wonderful breath of sunshine and friendship and gave us some history of the area. And the food was cooked to perfection. We had fish, shrimp, and chicken - all done just right. The fried green tomatoes were made a bit differently than I've had in TN and AR, but they tasted good. And the alligator bites, onion rings and boudin were delicious - out of this world. We will be sure to return again. Best fried fish and shrimp I've had for at least 10 years. read more

Food was amazing. Onion rings were fresh & fried green tomatoes were so good! Our waitress (the only one in there) was on top of everything. The woman behind the counter wasn't, she was on her phone the entire time we were there. Felt bad for the server that was waiting tables & answer the phone. read more

Great food, fast service, but a little pricey. Would not stop me from returning though!

My wife and I ate here and we LOVED it! My wife has become a regular and I would too except I have been out of town on business. Just got back and on our way home from the airport we stopped at Fish Tales and we were treated to a very good meal of grilled shrimp and fried catfish with fries! If you love fish and chips like we do then you need to go eat at Fish Tales! read more

Love the fried fish and shrimp. There's often a wait, but the fish is so good it's worth it to me. I've not cared for the sides or the gumbo. The fried pickles were also amazing. read more

Horrible over priced food, with below average customer service as well as beyond sub par hygenic food practices, I literally Would probably pay the health department to actually shut this place down out of my own pocket. Here's a tip people, anytime shrimp tastes sour, you can bank on food poisoning. read more

If I could them zero stars I would! This is for the catering and dealing with Scott the owner. After being in contact with him since April this man has been nothing but unprofessional and unorganized. If you want to be told different prices and bullshit about fish prices going up 29% due to the politics involved with the trade wars by all means give this man your business. After assuring me we were all set to go and telling me he would be sending over details the following day he didn't even bother to follow up. Instead I had to contact him to be told that he was booked for the day I needed. I proceeded to call the restaurant not knowing who the owner actually was to inform them of how unprofessional Scott had been,only to be told he was the owner. Wow!! I spoke to a lady who was the manager of the catering and she was full of it too. She promised to make two phone calls and call me back and I never heard back from her. I will make it a point to let everyone I know not to bother with this place unless you want to be left scrambling to find someone else to cater! read more

The food was great appetizer alligator balls entrée shrimp and fish. My husband had the fried oysters that were perfect

Called in a order and waited 45 minutes before I arrived even tho the guy told me it would be ready in 15 minutes. When I got there I waited in line for another 10 minutes before I reached the counter and the guy told us to step to the side so he could help the lady that just walked in, I did . After he helped her I told him I placed an order over the phone he asked me to step aside again so he could help the next lady in line after us, with an attitude this time so I refused and he asked what my order was in a annoyed tone,at this point I lost my taste for fish tales and thanked him for his help and left. Needless to say horrible service. read more

Why do this place open? Half of the stuff we tried to order wasn't available: chicken strips, oysters, alligator bites. Then no go to spoons for gumbo!!! The food was mediocre. The best thing of our whole order was the gumbo, which we had to eat with our fork. The wait staff didn't wear masks and kept touching their faces. We will not going back. read more

Fried pickles, fried catfish, fried shrimp were all great! Gumbo had good flavor but was served room temperature, must have just been a mistake. Can't go wrong here if you like fried seafood! read more

Love the catfish, fried green tomatoes and alligator. Wish they had a restaurant in Humble.

I ordered my surf & turf cooked medium and I got a well done, barely edible chunk of beef. Dirty rice tasted like it came out of a box. Sorry, all of the items I ordered should have been half the price i paid. They also delivered literally 9 containers of ranch for 1 side salad. I liked the fried shrimp, but I won't be ordering from here again. read more

My husband and I were traveling through on our way from Beaumont when I found this place on yelp. I always like to try something new when we are on the road. The crab cake was good and a very nice size. We ordered fish and shrimp and both were delicious. Would definitely eat here again. Staff was great read more

Service is not good at all. All the servers seem very inexperienced and untrained. It took about 10 minutes to pay our bill. I got the catfish dinner. It is a good amount but is so tough to eat. The catfish has barely any flavor and has more fried coating than actual fish. Couldn't get through it. Shrimp are actually ok, except their cocktail sauce tastes rancid... 2 stars because they have Pepsi and for the shrimp. read more

We really tried... my mother wanted me to try them out because she said she went once before and the fish was good. Mom loves homemade onion rings and was excited to see them on the menu. We ordered onion rings, fried catfish plate, and I had blackened catfish dinner. After a few minutes, waitress informed us they had no onion rings. So we ordered fried green tomatoes instead... a few minutes later, we were told they had none. Then she named a few things they did have... we got fried okra. Then she brought our dinner... mine was supposed to have a sauce over it and she told mom she would bring her sauce and condiments as well. We waited a while, ate half my gosh before I finally got sauce. My dinner also came with a side salad, got it a little later, she asked what kind of dressing, I told her, but never got the dressing. Ended up putting salad in go container to take home. Then when it was time to pay, our card was run on someone else's food. They couldn't figure out how to fix it. Also, just to top it off ... we battled flies the whole time we were there... not really their fault, just a nuisance on top of everything else. The food we did get ... my fish had good seasoning, once I finally got sauce it was good. Mom said her fish was good. Nothing to brag about in okra. This place needs help... sigh. Safe to say, won't be returning read more

I've eaten here quite a few times, the food was always excellent, good prices, and I have always had good service. If you're hungry for some catfish and your in the area then this is where you should go. Also in my on experience when looking for a sponsor for local youth the owner has always been more than giving. read more
