Vegetable beef
Stephanie L.

I got the vegetable beef soup and the pulled pork wrap. Recommend the soup for sure! The wrap was awful. Didn't even eat it. Thankfully I got a big bowl of soup so that was plenty. Waitress today was better. Won't ever get that wrap again but will get the fish sandwich next time and stick with that!

Wow! First time visit and I will absolutely be back!!! Came in with a group of 11 people and were seated almost immediately. Our server was extraordinary and attentive. There was not one error in any of our orders and the food was extraordinary. The prices were very reasonable and the portions were generous. The ambiance was great and offered many unique decor to enjoy. Child friendly, but also seemed like a great happy hour hangout. The website doesn't do the restaurant justice, but luckily you're not dining on the Internet. I can't wait to go back and try other things to eat! The salmon and ahí tuna were phenomenal.

I went to Fishtale Grill with my dad, 2 of my siblings, brother-in-law and a few nieces on Friday, 4/4 for the fish special. It was quite busy, so the wait was understandable. Unfortunately, it was the quality of food that we have had in the past. The baked fish was ok, but could have used more seasoning. The deep-fried fish was tough as if it had been cooked earlier and then sat under warming lights for some time. Fries were also lukewarm and overdone. Mac 'n cheese needed more sauce... However, this was not the worst part... When we paid, those who had the fish special were all charged $19.95 instead of the advertised $16.95. What a surprise! We had multiple choices, including two that would have been cheaper had we known. Gets worse... When we pointed out the mistake to the waitress/manager, she said she knew and needed to update the website! She refused to give us the advertised price... OK... so we thought if we contacted the owners, perhaps they would rectify things with us. Sent an email to both owners listed on the website... Still no answer, although they have now updated the website to reflect the current price. VERY DISAPPOINTING... It was already not my dad's favorite place as evening lighting is dim and it is noisy. Now, they have lost 3 family customers (even when my brother said that they lost a customer, and my dad echoed, there was no budge to honor the advertised price.) ...

I was fortunate enough to eat here twice on my last trip to New Prague and plan to eat here when I return later this summer. Here are some points that might influence your decision to eat here or not: 1. First of all, New Prague does not have a huge selection of restaurants, and I think The Fishtale might be the best of them. I don't mean that it is the best of a bad bunch, because it is a good place, as I describe below. It is just that the food here is a step up from many other places in town. 2. The burgers are outstanding, and there is a choice of options. To me the best choice is the plain burger without a lot of toppings, which reveals how good the burger is: flavorful, well-done (my preference) but not dried out. 3. The kettle chips with the burgers are good, but the fried are better. 4. For soup, you have to try the vomacka soup, a Czech soup with carrots, celery, potatoes, and dill, among other ingredients. You can find the recipe online, but trust me when i say you must give it a try. The flavors all come together to make a hearty soup. 5. The star of the restaurant is the broasted chicken, fried chicken made in a pressure cooker. The cooking technique makes for very flavorful chicken, crunchy enough but surprisingly light. Sometimes fried chicken has a crust that is too thick, but the crust here is light but thick enough to add to the chicken. If you have never had broasted chicken, don't miss the chance when you are here. The potatoes and brown gravy were also outstanding. Hope you have a chance to give The Fishtale a try.

Quickly seated and served. Wonderful lunch fair prices. Love the decor. Rustic, canoes etc. I had the bbq chicken salad. Could have fed three people. Loved the dressings. Wife had broasted chicken and tater tots. We both enjoy the meal and will return when we are in the area.

Be open to new friends and they will treat you like family. Best prime rib dinner for miles!…read more Awesome prices and they know your name after a visit! The whole team is always friendly no matter how busy they get. Service with a smile!

We…read morecame for the summer concert series and wanted to have dinner inside before listening to the music. The service was absolutely terrible. The food took over an hour to come out. By the time it came out the fries were completely overcooked and not edible and the food was cold. It was clearly sitting in the kitchen for a very long time before they brought it out to us. When the food came out we asked for an extra plate and the response we got from the owner "anything else because I'm not coming back again". She then yelled at people waiting at the bar and was very rude to everyone waiting. We were just trying to pay our bill and leave at this point and this whole experience took over 2 hours. Very disappointing and unfortunately we will not be back. Hope the new ownership figures out how to handle busy times or else doesn't host events going forward. We also got charged for items that we never received but they wouldn't listen to us to even get it corrected so we just had to pay and leave so we could be done at this point.

Beer is fresh and ice cold, large variety of liquors for great mixed drinks, popular seltzers, craveable shots, and you can't beat their prices; best in town! Fun entertainment including pool table, dart boards, 6 pull tab boxes, ETab machines, TouchTunes jukebox (also app friendly), and Friday meat raffles beginning @ 5:30pm (fall though spring). Staff is the best, friendly and attentive! They serve Heggies, Picasso, and FireHouse pizzas that are super good! They also have cheese bread and lots of bar snacks. Off sale beer and liquor. Multiple large TVs/sports games. Nightlife there on weekends are packed and a great place to meet up w/friends, or meet new ones! Definitely a bar crawl must; highly recommend!

It was the first one of the night, I withdrew my tip, skip my song, I take my dollar back. Everyone who has bartenders like this should do this when they skip a song that they put In with THEIR money! This place is turning into another 1319, minus the expensive food and no bottled beer. They never skip horrible Morgan Wallen songs, most generic boring hick hop ever! Don't even get me started on how tired out the Nitty Shitty Dirt Band is! No Metallica, but they will let a song by noted Hitler lover Kanye play out through the whole duration. Time will only tell before they let Jason Aldean's pro-lynching song play through it's entirety and then skip a hard rock song because the bartender doesn't "like it."
