I love this restaurant and their seafood deals throughout the month. This location is surrounded by other businesses and eateries. Parking can be difficult if visiting on weekends. This restaurant has ample natural light and clean. It can get pretty busy when they have their specials and weekends. The first time I went it was around 5pm and it was crowded so service was definitely slow this particular day. I enjoy their dozen shrimp boil with one corn and potato deal for $8.99. The shrimp are a decent size and the seasoning is very good. I have had their house margarita and it is okay. It reminds me of the drinks they serve on vacations, not very strong and cheap liquor. Their peach tea is really good. Ask for half peach/half tea. Overall I really enjoy this restaurant. I would recommend to anyone looking for reasonably priced and tasty food to visit. read more

Okay, so, this national chain restaurant. Let's just say they weren't exactly rolling out the red carpet. First off, the "78 person occupancy" sign? Felt more like a suggestion than a rule, because it took a solid chunk of my life just to get acknowledged. I mean, I get it, places get busy, but I counted, like, ten whole people sitting down. Not exactly a five-alarm fire. And no, I didn't want to be serenaded by the clanging symphony of the kitchen - pots, pans, and staff gossip aren't my ideal dinner soundtrack. Then there was our waitress. Oh boy. She marched us to a table, let out a sigh that could curdle milk, and then proceeded to have a little pow-wow with her coworker. I happened to catch the coworker's "Oh my God" and their subsequent sprint to the kitchen. Real smooth, guys. Real smooth. From that point on, service was basically the bare minimum: order taken, food dropped, one obligatory "how's everything?" (delivered with the enthusiasm of a tax audit). The grand finale? As we're trying to pay, the restaurant's emptied out, and BAM! Three employees are chilling, eating, and looking at my partner as she wrestles with her wallet. I swear, I could feel their eyeballs boring into the back of my head. She had to go out to the car to get her wallet, and as she walked back, I could see their reflections in the window. It was like a scene from a unwritten comedy movie called "I know you're gonna eat and run". One of the staff members stop his eating and finally lumbered over and took our payment, probably annoyed that his eating had been interrupted. So yeah, one star less. They earned it. read more

My husband and I eat here regularly. Our favorite servers are either T or Elijah ... if you want great service with a smile make sure to ask for one or the other! read more

Tarek was an awesome server tonight. He made the whole experience very enjoyable. He made suggestions, frequently asked about needing anything and was very knowledgeable about your menu. The food was good. The crab cake appetizer was spot on. Didn't get a picture because they were gobbled up so fast. Please try these. The other dishes were very good portions. You will see in the pictures. The ambiance was dinner casual, not high end but pleasant. Please go try it out ask for him and don't forget the crab cakes. Only one issue: dirty windows in the front. Not the best for your customers to see. read more

Our boys were both out of town so we decided to stop in for some seafood. The waitress was friendly and efficient. The food was very good. I had the Salmon cakes and my wife had the build your own bowl. We both had water the bill was in the $40s. We would eat here again. read more

Ambiance: Nautical themed restaurant & bar with large windows that bring in a flood of sunlight and happy atmosphere! The booths & bar area high tops are designed to make you feel like you're on a boat. There are Holiday decorations around the restaurant celebrating various occasions (i.e. Mardi Gras), which I find to be a nice touch. They have a decent sized lunch menu and the portions are fairly large. Service is fast. Onsite parking & lots of shops nearby to peruse after. Rotating specials and seasonal events. Clean space, although the bar area tables seemed to have a bit of a delay being bussed. I always get the herb crusted chicken and have heard others say the seafood is pretty good. This is a great spot for grabbing lunch or meeting family for a casual dinner. read more

Rockfish does not get the standing ovation that it needs and deserves.... I have patronized this restaurant a few times and I always leave satisfied. They make good seafood. Always flavorful always tasty. First off, they are starting to do brunch on Saturdays and Sundays..... GET THERE! Not a lot of options but they are working on expanding it. The flavors amazing!!!!! 10/10 highly recommend. Service and restaurant is nice for family gatherings and the servers are attentive and helpful! read more

Came here for a date night and really enjoyed our meal and the service. We went around 8pm on a Friday and the restaurant was a little empty so we were a little nervous but the bar was full and everyone at a table seemed to be really enjoying their food. Our server was super nice and helped me to navigate the menu with my food allergy and even checked with the kitchen for modifications. The portions here are ginormous, but everything was pretty good. The only slight critique that I had about our meal was that my shrimp were overcooked but besides that, everything was seasoned well the fried food we got was crisp with light breading. read more

We stop here often for lunch or dinner as it is convenient and our meals are delicious...and filling. Service is always great. We belong to their rewards program so we receive points as credit for dining which is a win win for us as we enjoy their specials (drinks & meals). My personal favorite is the Cajun Pasta, so is often difficult for me to try their specials or their other menu items, but I have never been disappointed with any selection. If you have not been there then give it a try. The dining area is open but you can still have a conversation while listening to a variety of music, in the background. Don't be surprised if when you food arrives and you take your first taste that you ignore your party and begin devouring your meal...it is that good. read more

On a whim ordered long distance delivery doordash because I was craving fish & chips and this place seemed to have what I was looking for and boy was I right!! The coating on the fish was so crispy and light and the fish itself meaty and flaky. The slaw was perfectly spiced with freshly cut veggies and also very light and refreshing. I wish I lived closer so I could eat this food more often but will definitely not hesitate to order delivery again when craving some delicious seafood! read more

The Valentines Lunch I planned for @ Rockfish was good. My wife and I decided to go early and beat the crowds, and was a great choice. We had not visited the restaurant since December 2020. We patronized Rockfish once or twice a month prior to 2020. The food was good. We ordered the spinach artichoke dip and it was not as good as we remembered, but not bad. My wife had the salmon cooked medium rare and she loved it. I ordered the seafood enchiladas and the sauce was a little different than I remembered. The tortillas were a little tough but edible. The rice was good and flavorful. We ordered dessert. I got key lime pie and it was very good. My wife ordered the bread pudding and she loved it. Our server was awesome. She catered to our needs and was very responsive at all times. Overall good experience! The restaurant was not full around 2 pm on Valentines Day. It was not noisy, and the choice of seating was more than adequate. read more

I have gone to this restaurant several times and one of the reasons I continue to return was because the food was very good. I visited by myself and I've taken a couple of friends there recently something has changed a couple of weeks ago. I walked in I think it was around the change of the shift. People were lingering. It couldn't have been more than 3 to 4 couples sitting dining. The bartender saw me at least three waitresses seen me standing there a couple of them walked within three feet of where I was standing. I thought well maybe it totally up to the hostess to set customers so I sat in one of the chairs up front and waited for what felt like at least 10 minutes, then I decided to stand so I could be seen and no one came over every continued to do what they were doing. As if I was part of the decor. at some point, I walked toward a table and then and only then did a young woman meet me at the table I had chosen and set a menu down with a chilling someone will take your order. The barmaid that had been looking at me the whole 15 minutes comes over and I mention to her that I was feeling like I was being discounted, I know I had been standing there long enough for some body to have at least recognized me and said someone will be Wright with you, sir. The hostess is away, on a bathroom break or something. Give me a moments I'll grab a menu and I'll seat you or something of the sort. She stated they no longer have a hostess at this point apologize and eventually offered me a coupon for dessert if and when I returned, this is where it gets real. I did return a week later yesterday and I got the same treatment I didn't wait as long I seated myself again. The bartender came over a different one took my order. my food arrived, and as I was eating, I witnessed something that made me furious the same waitresses, and I remember them distinctly saw customers coming through the door that happened to be Caucasian and before these people could clear the door they were standing by the entrance with menus and hand and ushering them to seat. A gentleman had walked by introduced himself as a general manager earlier. ask me how things were going, and after I saw this, I called him over. I told him exactly what had transpired what I had saw just now and before I could finish my sentence first thing out of his mouth was I can tell you now it's not racism and I ask him then. What is it? The first time I experienced it was an incident a second time it's a pattern please explain to me how I witnessed other people that don't look like me being treated differently. read more

Beware --- I went today for lunch, placed my order... the Waitstaff brought my drinks to the table and after closer examination there was an entire whole dead roach floating in the water glass. I brought it to the Waitresses attention: she smirked, then apologized and brought another glass of water. I told her to cancel my order and I walked out. I use to love this restaurant, but they're in a slow decline. read more

Would definitely go back!! Lunch today with my daughter and we were both pleased with food and service! Only wish we had taken advantage of the outdoor seating, as it was a beautiful day! We tried the rockfish sampler. Volcano shrimp, jalapeño fritters and spinach artichoke dip. Everything was great! I ordered the redfish étouffée at the recommendation of our server. It was fantastic. Edges of the redfish nice and crisp. The shrimp was delicious. Although I have never actually tried grits before today, the jalapeño grits were delicious. Great consistency and complimented the redfish well. My daughter had the surf and turf and cleaned her plate. She said everything was great and she is looking forward to a return visit. read more

We have always loved Rockfish for their fresh fish and good value, however, when we visited on December 26 we left wondering if this place is on the decline. We were not seated or greeted when we Entered. The waiter looked at us but didnt say anything. He should have said "someone will be with you momentarily." My husband ordered grilled trout, which didn't taste fresh and french fries that tasted like they had been sitting awhile. My daughter had fish & chips that also were marginal. The highlight of the evening were the mussels in a white wine sauce. Very good. The restaurant lacks the polish and professionalism it once had. I hope it gets better. read more

This place was beautiful. The problem is the food doesn't match. The crab cakes and Diablo shrimp appetizers were the best thing we had. The crawfish was extremely salty. I believe they probably just season the shell instead of the boil water. I also had the charred oysters but there was zero flavor on anything. The martini were not made right we had to order an extra shot to make it taste right. The lady that served us was outstanding. All in all for 170 bucks for 3 people I really expect better tasting food than what we got but now we can mark this place off the list. I recommend Goode seafood on I-10 it cost way less and the food is amazing. read more

The Louis salad, fried okra, and redfish are very good. Wonderful sides and decent prices

This was the best chicken Alfredo I've had in a while I ate the whole thing. It wasn't so over powering of the sauce it had the right amount of. Will return read more

Wonderful! I don't like coleslaw, but ate every bit of it! The jalapeño hush puppies were delicious. My little ate the popcorn shrimp and enjoyed it. I had catfish and it was good-no fishy flavor. Pumpkin crème brûlée is a must! Our waiter did a great job, too. read more

The waitress was awesome with a good personality and the food was good. Casual atmosphere. We enjoyed it.

It's sad to have an affordable seafood place so close to home and the food is terrible. The fish, and I've had grilled mahi-mahi mahi and fried catfish, is low quality and overcooked. The fried and grilled shrimp are not memorable or enjoyable. The string beans and red beans are the BEST items I've had. The gumbo is alright but not good enough to reorder. Instead, spend more $ and go to Pappadeaux, Cassandra's or Blue Water (nearby competition). I haven't tried The Catch or Old Harbor yet, but the locals like those spots, too. There's a BeBe's off Tomball Pkwy (about 10-15 min away) and their seafood is good, too. Just don't eat at Rockfish. It's sub par. read more

The staff were great. Very quick service. Burger was not my favorite. Kids popcorn shrimp was more like regular shrimp. The burger meat had a texture like the impossible burger meat. All of our fries were over fried and cold. read more

I've come here several times with family trying various things such a fish tacos or their fried fish, but my last visit for a boiling crab/shrimp special was disappointing. We discovered you they do not devein their shrimp! That was quite shocking considering the caliber style Rockfish fashions themselves as, and we-were-STARVING too! It totally ruined my meal experience with my family. Honestly, I've never gone to a restaurant that prepares shrimp meals that WEREN'T deveined - otherwise, it's just not considered clean. We talked to a manager about that, but they made it seem as though there was nothing they could do (BS). I ended up getting something else, but it sucks when you had your mind set on something. Otherwise, the drinks I've had here before and the ambiance was always pretty chill and never too crowded. read more

I would not recommend this place, if I could leave a negative star I would. They need to work on their customer service particularly during a time like this we are in. We were at the table going to order and realize it was 10 min before happy hour. I asked it is only 10 min can we get the happy hour price. She left to asks the bartender and came back with no. Mind you I was going to spend money on beverages, appetizers and a meal! So we got up and left. I do not recommend this establishment. read more

This place has a lot of potential but maybe we caught them on a bad day. To start off we could barely find a clean table and ended up having to clean the table off ourselves. I think I only seen about two or three other couples in the restaurant so I'm not sure why that went down like that. The food was delicious, the only issue was that my fries were on the cooler side and tasted stale. Like I said I'll give them another try just maybe at a different location. read more

Flew into Houston for the first late Friday night and came across this place. Even though we came in and there was 40 minutes till they were closing, they still treated us with excellent customer service! No rushing answered all the questions we had and was pleasant the entire time! The food was excellent.. I'm not a big fan of hush puppies but those were absolutely deliciousness! And I can't remember the name of the drink that I got but oh we it was sooooo GOOD!! It was a Hurricane and Margarita mixed and it did NOT disappoint!! Next time I go back to Houston I definitely want to go back and try some more of the delicious dishes that they had to offer.... read more

Updated We started out on 59-69 south all the way to 290 and came up highway 6 and 290. Only to end up at ROCKFISH in Willowbrook. We passed a thousand restaurant's only to find dope new eatery and I thoroughly enjoyed. We met a couple from Louisiana who we conversed with and we had a lot in common. But the restaurant was pretty crowded at that time. So we sat outside on the patio ordered our food and I so enjoyed the noise of people going about their day. The restaurant was clean our waitress was awesome with good customer service. So they do have handicap parking and curbside parking/service as well. But as we are leaving the restaurant, a white gentleman ran outside and started to check his truck to see if I hit it backing out. So I rolled down my window and politely said sir I didn't hit ur truck. He sarcastically waved me off as if it's Okay this is something he's used to doing. But other than that racist experience or not, we had a lovely time. And will I frequent this restaurant again? (( ABSOLUTELY )). I didn't get a chance to take pictures of the menu cuz I was too busy running my mouth. Go to the website and check it out. It was inexpensive for 3 people which my bill came to $44 dollars and some change. Though for the day... Always treat people the way you want to be treated... ~ Bon Appetit ~ read more

The service was okay, but I've been grading on a huge curve during the pandemic. If you can come and risk your life so I don't have to cook garlic bread, not gonna bitch about you forgetting something. I am concerned that the kitchen may or may not be all microwaves. The food was all on par with the "free breakfast" at a Holiday Inn Express. The "lump" crab cakes definitely were made at a large processing facility and were devoid of all taste and flavor. They were these soggy, sausage patty sized discs of culinary defeat with pre bagged dipping sauce. No way I'm calling that a remoulade. I've seen larger portion sizes for the $16 crawfish Étouffée in a jar of baby food. It was okay, but for that portion size that better make you wanna slap yo mama. My mates seafood enchiladas had the presentation and execution of a baby doing the cooking. I noticed most of the clientele were septuagenarian and octogenarians and anecdotal experience has shown this demographic is just happy to be out of the house! Good food or not. I'd have to be extremely famished and all of the neighboring food establishments in a 5 mile radius would have to be closed, gas stations included, for me to return here. read more
