    Shrimp Po'Boy.
    kila c.

    I have had a craving for fried seafood so with a little research and looking for something budget friendly i stumbled across this hidden gem, after passing through for a while we decided why not give it a shot! I called in my family's order which consisted of; a Shrimp Poboy, a Catfish Poboy, a family order of Fries, 6 Hushpuppies, and a side order of Coleslaw! All for 30$! The service was immaculate, upon arriving I was greeted by Sammie(service attendant) and James (the chef) and they even gave me a complimentary drink. We're not from the area so Krispy Catfish was a straightforward major hit. Everything was cooked to order and didn't leave a greasy mess. I would say the fries could have been more crispier and the fish and shrimp itself had no seasoning so it left it average on taste but definitely worth trying! Thank you :)

    It's ok the food is edible just kinda confused. I think it was owned originally by black folks. There was no RnB music playing and lacked customers. It was empty and the Indian male didn't even know the menu. I asked for the surf and turf and he didn't know what that was. Food was fresh but the tenders had no seasoning along with the fries. No ketchup or salt and pepper available to use. You are given an option to get sauce but I wanted hot sauce. Will I come here again? Sure why not I just need to bring my own seasoning.

    I wanted to get my seafood badge. This was the only place that I could think of that was convenient. I called in my order to save time. Finding a parking spot was easy. The Owner quickly greeted me right away. He said, he bought this place 7 to 8 months ago. They painted the walls White and got new countertops. It was very nice in there but, it was a little warm. However, they had two blow fans to help keep it cool. It was almost 4:00 when I went by. There was only one other couple on a date night here. I got Catfish Strips, Fries and Two Hush Puppies. Strips were nicely breaded and crispy. Fries were crinkle cut but, seemed like Steak Fries because they were thick and long The Hush Puppies were sweet and crispy. I will come here again. I like the atmosphere, food and customer service. Check it out domw

    The food is very fresh . Customer service is great . Very clean & nice place . The Re brand has definitely made it better !

    My lady wanted catfish (per the norm) for the weekend, so we looked for a spot in the area. Found this place the pictures looked legit, so off we went. We ordered the 1pc catfish dinner, 6 pc shrimp dinner, two sides of coleslaw and one egg roll. Here's the verdict; $29.00, later we received an extra piece of catfish, a side of okra that we didn't order which was cool. The egg roll was definitely overpriced for the size at $2.49. They may want to decrease that price back to their old one of .99 cents. The portion size were excellent, the fries and hushpuppies weren't fresh. The cornmeal on the fish and shrimp was salty making it difficult to eat the meal. The fries were over salted as while, the okra was fabulous right along with the coleslaw. This spot has potential however they definitely need to season their food slightly. Roni's pick

    Not bad! Everyone knows I'm a catfish snob. Growing up in the country in east Texas where your aunt fryers fresh catfish to perfection means you have high standards. Just moved to Fort Worth and needed a fix. Looked at places on Yelp and came across this spot. I live on the north side so I knew coming south meant it would be legit. Easy ordering and friendly staff. About ten minutes wait. Not bad. Fish is previously frozen but they do a good job making sure to remove the water prior to frying. Cornmeal is excellent. Seasoning was decent. Will try the strips next time. Overall not bad. I'd go back!

    Walk up counter to place your order.

    First, I love me some fried fish and catfish for sure! Use Yelp to find me a place close by. This seemed like it might be worthy of a 4+ score, but after further review not so much. First, it was hot in there, like 85 plus. No direct sunlight coming in, simply to AC was working. Second, funky oder in the air. Best thing about my first impression was the guy behind the counter, very pleasant and eager to help and make things right. And the music, old school R&B. Now, those speakers were singing in my ears. The food was a solid 4. Ordered the #16, with a side of okra. They forgot the fries and hush puppies. They finally got them to me, but by the time they arrived the food was cold. Without AC, I think I will order ahead ask for my order "to go" next time. There is room for improvement. Hope next time I come by I can give them a 5. For now, Overall, a solid 3.5 out of 5.

    First time having crispy catfish, just ok, found it to be very bland. The hush puppies were the best part of the meal

Feels like you stepped into a beach side restaurant in North Carolina or South Carolina. From the atmosphere to the food. All the people from the managers to the servers were extremely nice and helpful and accommodating. And all the food was delicious. The mahi was not my favorite but every other dish we had was amazing. I love brussels sprouts and these are one of the best in town. Fish tacos were great as well and pro tip,they are on the happy hour menu.! Salmon and fillet was perfectly cooked, and not pictured, the brownie peanut butter dessert was a perfect ending.

Plank has a solid HH that is every day - yes, weekends included! Always a plus in my book! On this particular dining experience, we stopped in for an early dinner on Monday and it was not too crowded and we were able to snag a seat at the bar with no issues. Our bartender, Colton, was amazing! He was so personable, took the time to chat and make jokes with us, and was super attentive. As time went on, the bar started to fill up a bit more but he never lost focus on each of his customers and was very efficient. Food recs: beignet hush puppies (must get!), shrimp po' boy, crab cakes, ragin' Cajun maki, blackened catfish. Drink recs: margarita, old fashioned, prosecco, rose prosecco, strawberry surfer.

You order…read moreat the counter which is ok but pricing here was more like that of a full service restaurant. I got the number 3 crabs and shrimp (headless) and the amount of shrimp was HUGE! I will say it wasn't deveined so there is work to do, i thought the charge for headless might include it but it doesn't. There was 2 large snow crab clusters and they were easy to crack and pull out the meat. They had the perfect amount of spice. Two pieces of corn and two potatoes came with it as well as two sausage which was all delicious. I can't comment on the taste of the shrimp as i don't usually eat it but my husband said it was good except for the work required. We also tried the hot chicken and ordered medium and it was almost too hot to eat. This is compared to my crab meal which was ordered hot it was almost like they switched it around but i checked the receipt and it wasn't ordered that way. I would say if you want the chicken maybe go w mild. It wasn't super busy when we arrived but we got there when it opened. They play pretty good music but it's a little loud. Tables all draped w plastic tablecloths which are handy w the mess. They do have a handwashing area you can use and even though you get gloves and a bib if you need it and bathrooms were clean.

It was spicy enough to have me blowing my nose but not extreme to where you can't even taste the flavor, perfect level if you want spicy but not overwhelming. We also got the friend pickles, hush puppies and ranch fries, pretty good as well nothing too special about those but can't go wrong with ordering them. If was pretty packed considering it was a Friday night around 8 so expected. We were still able to get a table since as people get up the clean them relatively fast, music was good and the workers come by asking if you need anything pretty often. Overall great spot for families or singles as they do also have a pretty big bar!

We weren't even given water and had to stop a staff member walking by to ask. She said she would send our server, but things did not improve. The food was extremely disappointing. The crab legs had little to no meat in them. When we brought this up, we were told that everything is frozen and that they "spend a lot of money on crab," so they couldn't control the quality. That response alone was unacceptable. What made the situation worse was the lack of professionalism from management. A staff member (who walked past us when we asked for water) came to our table acting as if she were a supervisor or manager, but it was clear she was not. Being misled like that was frustrating. When the actual manager was finally contacted, he came over already defensive, talked over us, and dismissed our concerns instead of trying to resolve them. To make matters even more concerning, I personally ordered an alcoholic drink and was not asked to show my ID at any point. Overall, this experience showed poor service, poor food quality, and unprofessional management. This place has clearly gone downhill.

I was in town for work and when I was craving seafood, a coworker/friend suggested we go to Pacific Table. We were in the mood to try a few different cocktails so Jordyn suggested we split them so we weren't drinking / wasting a full drink if we didn't like it. It's been a while since I was there and it looks like their cocktail menu rotates but the two that are still on the menu as I write this review are the Yuzu Lemon Drop and the Cucumber Martini If you're comfortable with who you're dining with, get the grilled artichokes as a starter. When I say these were grilled to perfection.. my goodness!! We split the brussels sprout salad and removed the chicken. I don't remember there being chopped egg in the salad like the menu states but the brussels sprout leaves, manchego and craisins were a great combination! I wish I would have wrote this review earlier because our main course was the special of the evening. I believe it was a miso glazed cod with lump crab. Or maybe it was a lemon butter sauce. Ahh well whatever it was it was incredible and we asked Jordyn for more sauce because it was that good. We finished the evening with a slice of yellow cake with a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream (that also isn't on the current menu ) and we were pleasantly surprised!!
