    We didn't have Reservations, but that's ok because we immediately could sit down anywhere, so we sat up at the bar. Atmosphere was nice & clean with lots of happy people here. Out Waitress/Bartender was AMBER H who was super sweet, funny, attentive and quick; providing above Excellent Service. All the other staff members were jovial and helpful too. Thank Y'all! I ordered a Moscow Mule to drink and Crab Fingers for an appetizer which were excellent! My boyfriend got the Fish & Chips which were GREAT! Big lump fish and it came out piping HOT, which I loved. I order the Salmon and it was AWESOME! The salmon was grilled perfectly so it was moist and flaky. The grilled vegetables were also very good Coming back here for sure!

    We tried this seafood eatery in the Rockwall town square. The aroma outside the restaurant was the first nice thing about it. The ambiance was simple, but the staff welcomed us and service was great. We shared the crab stuffed mushroom app. Delicious with two large shrooms, but for the price three would've been nice. I had the grilled fish tacos. These were delicious, well stuffed with fish and slaw and a couple of avocado slices and rice on the side. I was full and well pleased with the flavors. They have pricier seafood entrees of good variety including oysters, grouper and many others. I'll be back.

    Excellent service and fresh fish. The asparagus was amazing too! We will be back! This is definitely a neck to neck competitor to Pappadeaux.

    Fried Catfish

    Been here many times but I had to try the catfish. Was not disappointed at all. Very crunchy and the tartar sauce is yummy . Great service and look forward to coming back again. Husband had the shrimp chipotle and yummy as well.

    Spicy Seafood Soup. This is what you want on a cold night.

    One of my favorite places when in Rockwall. Seafood with a cajun flair, this restaurant combines good old standards (fried catfish and po-boys) with chef specials. Mom's favorite are the crab cakes which are amazingly lite and fresh on the inside and crispy on the outside. I had the special spicy seafood soup with clear seafood broth and octopus, fish, shrimp, mussels, and scallops along with diced fresh vegetables including zucchini and potatoes and is served with toasted and buttered crostini's. Totally hit the spot on a cold winter night. Always friendly and the places is usually full.

    Very disappointing. No regard for customers safety despite repeated requests for clean up. Multiple tables had to go the bar to ask for condiments, utensils, and drinks and were spoken down to

    Seafood Sampler

    Friendly staff they seemed kinda awkward ngl, nice rustic environment, found two long black hairs in my food, quite frankly it didn't taste that well. My boyfriend had the Cajun Sampler Cajun was over salted little to no flavor. In a word mid.

    Menu

    A solid 3 1/2 stars based on overall experience. We entered and were welcomed by the guy at the door. He told us to choose a table and we did. He brought us over menus and notified us that our server would be by shortly. We waited a good 10 mins before a guy came over to let us know that he would take our drink order and someone would be over to help us soon. Mind you it was only two other tables seated and both with food and drinks. We waited another 10-15 before he returned to let us know that he would just take our order. We were not informed of any specials or even told anything about the menu. We asked questions that were answered and ordered. Kids had mac with Fries - the fries were super crispy and tasty. The Mac was CHEESING CHEESING Additionally there was shrimp tacos and a fried shrimp basket at the table and a side of Crab Mac. It was the same mac as the kids but with breadcrumbs and some blue crab sprinkled on top. The food was OK The service was ok The Ambiance was Ok I am not in a hurry to head back but if in the area and hungry I'd pop back in.

    Fish & Chips
    Christie P.

    Nice little spot just off the square in downtown Rockwall! The calamari with its slightly spicy breading was really good! My husband's fish and chips were also good, and the breading was nice and light. I loved the Oscar style blackened redfish with the huge asparagus spears! I also liked their wine selections including Pacific Rim Riesling and Miraval rose. We also enjoyed the key lime pie and banana pudding desserts. All of the food was beautifully presented, and service was attentive. I look forward to coming back and trying the brunch menu!

    Food was good but average, raw oysters seemed to be a hit with others. Ambiance was kind of like a dive bar. Service was average.

    We tried Fish & Tails Oyster Bar for dinner last night after it was recommended by my cousin (who…read morelives nearby and had just gone a couple weeks ago), and I'm so glad we did! At first, we were a little intimidated by the menu--there are so many good options--but we were starving and ready to dive in. We grabbed seats at the bar, and honestly, that ended up being perfect. They had saltine crackers out (lifesaver while deciding), and once they opened up the garage doors, the whole place felt airy and relaxed. The temperature and atmosphere were spot on. We started with Miller Lites, and they even made me a strawberry mocktail, which I loved. For appetizers, we shared the calamari--crispy, fresh, and a huge hit (especially with the dipping sauce). I also got a cup of the red beans and rice, which was super flavorful and comforting. For mains, I ordered the shrimp pasta, and it did not disappoint--very Alfredo-ish, with perfectly cooked shrimp, broccoli, and delicious garlic toast on the side. Jason went with a combo platter loaded with fish, fried oysters, hush puppies, and fries, and he was more than happy with his choice. Overall, we really enjoyed everything--the food, the vibe, and the experience. We're already looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu!

I ordered the catfish and shrimp fried basket and a margarita, all of which was delicious ! My babe ordered a fried whole catfish (the main reason he loves this place), sausage, red beans and rice and a margarita. Everything was good except the red beans and rice... it was literally red beans and rice mixed together. Overall it was a great outing, with great food. We really enjoyed hanging out on the patio while eating. We will definitely go back

    I have lived in Rockwall for over 10 years and had no idea this place was here. Super cool karaoke…read morebar with good service. I pulled up and there was a woman a bit to tipsy to drive, and a bartender came out insisting she call an uber and made sure she got home okay, so they have my respect for that great first impression. They only have 3 things on the menu: burger, hotdog, and Doritos nachos. I ordered the burger and it was pretty good. Honestly, no notes. I'll be back.

    I've given Rockwall Tavern more than enough chances, but the vibe has been the same every time:…read morecold, unwelcoming, and dismissive -- from the bar staff all the way up to ownership. It's never felt like a place that values new faces or fresh energy, and that's a missed opportunity. As for karaoke nights, it's no secret there's an inner circle. If you're not part of it, good luck. Despite signing up early and showing up ready to contribute to the night, I've consistently been pushed back or overlooked. It's hard to ignore when the same familiar faces keep rotating through while others wait endlessly. The karaoke host (yes, you know who you are) makes it clear who's in and who's out. If you're confident, talented, or don't "fit the clique," don't expect fair treatment. Some people protect their spotlight at the expense of others -- and that's exactly what happens here. It's unfortunate, because karaoke should be about building a vibe, not gatekeeping one. It's no wonder the place was dead last Saturday. Places that don't grow community eventually lose it. I'm speaking up not out of hate, but because I believe people deserve to know the truth -- and Rockwall deserves better than what this spot currently offers.
