    Cute Seafood place. Most of it is deep fried, but they also have grilled options. Sampled the fried oyster and it tasted like dirt. Do not recommend. The Lobster roll was standard warm bread and cold lobster. The fries were good and the coleslaw oh so good. Drinks are self service and many condiments too. It's clean, the staff is friendly and the atmosphere makes you feel like you are at a seaside resort down south.

    Excellent! The recently opened branch of the ever expanding " seafood" chain known affectionately as Flying Fish is a winner. What started as a humble,kitchy bait house vibe, single restaurant a couple of decades ago is now a legit chain. As I've said about other establishments before,it's difficult to take an original concept lovingly birthed by a hands on owner and replicate it. Shannon Wynne has successfully accomplished not only the spirit of the original but the food just continues to improve. Best of all,prices are held to a very reasonable level considering the quality, atmosphere and service. Catfish,Redfish,flounder,shrimp,ettouffee,gumbo,on and on....it's all delicious Go!

    6 Fried Shrimp Basket with Okra
    Aimee M.

    Bf and I stopped in on a weekday night. While not completely packed, it was lively and there were lots of families around. My partner ordered a catfish po boy and I ordered a basket of 6 fried jumbo shrimp with fried okra. We both pretty much came to the conclusion that everything was alright. Nothing bad, but nothing crazy good. Okra can be equated to Chicken Express taste, which I'm still alright with. I really enjoyed their tartar sauce here, it was bright and flavorful. Bf is already talking about which dishes he should try next, so while I don't think it was our favorite food, it seems like a great place to get variety seafood if you don't want to haul out to fish shack in Richardson.

    Grilled trout
    Victor R.

    Ordered the grilled trout. It looked good. But, in my opinion it was greasy and dry without any real flavor. Onion rings were great. Ranch was watery and too tiny for an order of rings and pups.

    Cajun Seasoned Redfish & fries.

    Seafood was fresh and tasty. Employees were efficient and friendly. Cost was about as expected. Atmosphere was bayou festive

    I was in town for business and met up with an old friend for dinner here, and it turned out to be…read moreone of the highlights of my trip. The food was absolutely delicious and the ambiance was wonderful and perfect for a catch up with my friend: warm, inviting, and perfect service! The burrata salad was outstanding, and the pasta was equally impressive. We also shared the bread pudding for dessert, which was incredible and the perfect ending to the evening. The lobster dishes and wine selection were excellent as well. What really stood out, however, was the exceptional service: attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming without ever being intrusive. To top it all off, our entire dinner came to under $100, which felt like tremendous value for the quality of the food and experience. I only wish we had a location in Los Angeles. Highly recommended!

    First off let me say that our server Jennifer was excellent. (Not sure I spelled her name right)…read more She was one of the best we have ever had anywhere. Food was hit and miss. I had the Salmon and liked it. Another person had the burger and it was overcooked from how he requested it. Now the Bad... Crab legs are not made with fresh crabmeat. Fresh is white and flaky, these were brown and mushy. Two people ordered the crab legs and they were unable to eat them. They were overcooked and, not sure how, but some of them had burn marks on them. How do you burn something that is boiled? Also it was impossible to crack them open. The shells were soft and just folded over and you couldn't get them open. You could twist the leg back and forth and it wouldn't break open. I think perhaps they were left sitting in the water after they were cooked. Those were sent back and those two people didn't get to eat. The sad part of that is that after they were returned a manager came out and actually argued with them about the overcooking of the legs. He said that was impossible and that nobody else had complained. Wow, instead of just apologizing and saying it would be removed from the bill. That alone took this place off our list forever.

    Ever been hangry but can't figure out what to stuff in your belly? That's me tonight on a Tuesday…read more I ended up here and, honestly, I don't know that I'd go back. I got a small gumbo and catfish nuggets at 6.99 each. Even though they have a sign on the door for drink specials, apparently they didn't last more than like two months because they aren't offering that anymore. So I just asked for a water cup. 15.12 and you order at the counter and get your own drink. The water button on the soda machine sticks, so prepare for it to run for like a full 45 seconds before it magically unsticks. Gumbo came out in about ten minutes, but weirdly wasn't hot. Catfish nuggets came out about ten minutes after that (weird since they are both apps) and I asked for my soup to be reheated. I tried a nugget and it was ok, but there's like zero seasoning on them. Bland as my last tinder date people. For a place that touts New Orleans in the name, there's no creole/cajun influence here. Everything was just bland, especially the gumbo. By the way, he took it to reheat and by the time he returned it (14 min later) I needed to leave. He was nice enough to give me a lid and bag though. Service was ok, but there's like one guy and when he disappeared it was for ten minutes. I don't know if he was having to cook it or what but it made service slow. I've visited three times now and feel a three is appropriate. It's fine if you aren't looking for what the name implies.

We started with half a dozen raw oysters and they were fresh and delicious! We also ordered a dozen grilled oysters. They were okay, but nothing spectacular and probably not something we would order again. Hubby ordered the fish special that was on the board that day. I can't remember exactly which fish it was, but he said it was just okay. I ordered the snow crab with Cajun butter and unfortunately this was the biggest disappointment. The crab meat was extremely mushy and the texture was just not good at all. I tried several different legs from the cluster just to make sure it wasn't only one bad piece, but they were all the same, so I couldn't finish it. The corn that came with it also tasted old and had a strange sour taste, so I didn't eat that either. The Dragon Fruit Pineapple Mojito, however, was DELICIOUS! Definitely one of the highlights of the meal and I would absolutely order that again. One thing that was a little strange was the timing. Considering how slow it was when we were there, the food seemed to take a little longer than expected to come out, and my drinks took even longer. Overall, it was a mixed experience for us. The raw oysters and mojito were great, the grilled oysters and fish special were just okay, and unfortunately the snow crab entrée was a definite miss. I'm willing to give Anaya's another try and order something completely different if we happen to be in the area, but based on this visit, I wouldn't make a special trip back just to eat here.

I got a lemon dropped....it came with a huge piece of cotton candy (aka "citrus candy floss") on top that the waiter didn't bother to tell me I need to push down into the glass. He did warn me it was going to be an extremely sweet drink....and it was. I then thought I'd try a white cosmo. Good drink, but they use a craft ice cube with a flower in it....and then put it in a shallow glass. So at some point, the ice cube was just resting on my nose so I could drink. How has no one noticed this flaw? He preferred the smoke signal over the long watch. He said the long watch had a flavor he just didn't particularly enjoy. Shared some appetizers: cheeseburger was pretty good. He really liked the oysters...and that they serve the mignonette on the side. And he really, really enjoyed the mignonette. I don't enjoy salmon, but thought we'd try the dip. It didn't turn me into a salmon lover, but he thought it was pretty good. I got the bucatini and it was delicious. Great chunks of crab. I was pretty full so took most of it home....it did not reheat as well as I would've like. But, it's a cream sauce, so that's expected. He got the tagliatelle. He also enjoyed it, but probably wouldn't get it again. He just wasn't blown away. Just a lot of little things that would make me drive down the road rather than come back.
