    Red snapper a la diabla. I ordered a small one.
    Elo S.

    Came here for the first time on a Sunday around one pm. The music was overwhelming and loud. I didn't like how crowded it was. The tables were too close together and tiny. Being a seafood restaurant there's large dishes and platters and it was not practical. We had to play Tetris with the drinks and sauce stand to make room for our plates. I really wanted to run out before ordering anything because it was just too much. But the drinks and food came out fairly quickly. The food was satisfying. The menu has so many dishes it was very tasking to choose. The drinks were refreshing, I ordered an agua de guayava. It was perfect no artificial sugar was a plus. One of my kids is a chicken nugget kid so he ordered cheese sticks as a meal. I was pleasantly surprised because they were tempura battered or beer battered. Looked good. Had a nice cheese pull. I hope they don't start cutting corners and change them for freezer cheese sticks because it's these details that set them apart. My other kid ordered crab legs with garlic sauce and a shrimp cocktail. The crab legs were flavorful and cracked fairly easily. They didn't offer bibs or hand wipes. Don't say I didn't warn you. Now time for the shrimp cocktail. A shrimp cocktail is a big tell on how the rest of the food will be. The sauce was perfectly balanced. It wasn't straight ketchup. The shrimp was perfectly cooked. All of them. Not one overcooked. And let's not forget the avocado. Already in the cocktail with a perfect shrimp to avocado ratio. Generous. Lovely. I love it when I don't have to dig to find avocado or shrimp. My dish was the red snapper a la diabla. Although it was full of flavor the reason I ordered is because I expected heat. They were definitely scared of making it the way it's supposed to be. Hot! No heat at all, my chicken nugget kid tried it and didn't even notice any heat. I wish they could customize the heat level. I make a la diabla sauce at home so I know what to expect. I want that sauce to be so hot I start to have flashbacks.

    Shrimp Boil was amazing and the portions are amazing. The fried jumbo shrimp is huge. The calamari was freshly fried.

    Seafood Shack has been in my bookmark for months so today I did a take out order for lunch. Typically when I drive-by, cars are in the parking lot so I figure the kitchen is kept busy. I ordered two piece catfish with four shrimp and an order of coleslaw. I was impressed with the size of the flattened shrimp. The catfish was too rubbery to me. I didn't enjoy it. I'm very glad that I got the coleslaw to make up for that. Will I go again? Yes. Will I have the catfish again? No.

    Met a friend here for dinner after work. It was so casual and no fuss and delicious! I had the shrimp enchiladas and my friend had the boiled shrimp and sausage. We each had a marg ($6 on Mondays!) and chilled and talked for 2+ hours. The restaurant inside is nicely laid out , not too loud, and everything just runs very smoothly. You order at the counter, they bring you your food. Simple as that.

    Ceviche tostadas

    $5 Shirmp or cheviche tostadas on Monday!! Honestly I order these every time I come but plus on Mondays! I see a ton of people ordering the seafood soup. Smells amazing with large pieces of seafood. We always sit at the bar to watch the food come out & get the best service. This location stands out above the rest with their service & food quality!

    Y'all.. the margarita (watermelon) was so bomb! This is a great Mexican seafood spot. True I was the only sister there but the vibe was cool. Good was good and drinks were strong. Can't wait to go back. 4 stars tho cause the lady taking my order didn't speak any English and some of the servers so it's hard to communicate and plus you have to go back up to the front to order everything. They don't just take your drink order while you sit down. I had two margs and some shrimp and octopus seafood dish with a spicy red sauce and veggies and rice! Yummy

    Mexican cocktail
    Renee' F.

    Ordered 1lb shrimp, no head. Mexican cocktail and ceviche. The ceviche was bright and yummy. The boiled shrimp lacked flavor, were way over cooked, and since they weren't split down the back like some seafood boil places do, they had to be cleaned before eaten (you know what I'm talking about and No thanks). The Mexican cocktail was pretty standard, but since I had to clean my shrimp from the boiled option I paid attention to these and guess what, 25% + of them had to be cleaned before eaten as well. This is all well and good if you don't care about eating the shrimp poop (and I know people that do not care), but I do care. So I will try other menu options next time.

    Super good seafood and drinks in North Dallas. We I walked in Smelled like Cajun seafood heaven. We shared the Shack Jumbo Combo and Okra between two people and it was a perfect amount. It comes with catfish, oysters shrimp (all fried) Get the cajun style, it's the seasoning- great flavor and not salty. The okra is fresh and fried to order, comes out piping hot. All of drinks are made with fresh juices and not syrup- - very strong and the prices are excellent. Local favorite l

    We had a great visit on a recent Saturday evening. The restaurant is large, open and bright with a…read morebig bar area and plenty of space--great for large parties. It gets very busy in the evenings, so plan accordingly. The menu has an extensive selection of Mexican classics including a large seafood section. We split the parrillada mixta (listed for one but easily feeds two), and it was excellent. The steak, chicken, shrimp, and sausage were all cooked well and flavorful. The rice and beans were solid sides. The salsa was great, and our server kindly brought out a spicier version for us, which was very tasty. Service overall was terrific! Only downside: the chips were a bit mediocre. We will certainly return!

    Stopped by for a Margarita before joining a group at a nearby Asian buffet since I had an hour to…read morespare. Margaritas were good and offered as a happy hour special. The food on the menu looks really good, so I'll come back for that. One thing I found impressive was the salsa for the chips. It's more of a southeastern style that is pure red chili (Arul, I was told, very flavorful!!) without being loaded with tomatoes and chopped up cilantro and onions as so many TexMex places feature. I've been looking for a place that does "real" salsa without being pico de gallo (tomato, onion, cilantro, and water). The salsa here is all red chili sauce much like is used with Huevos Rancheros in New Mexico. The food on the menu looks more continental Mexican than TexMex, so if you like that (unusal for Dallas) then check this place out. Interior is upscale but still relatively casual with a large seating capacity so they should be able to handle a veritable stampede. Great date spot as the service is good and the food looks really good! I'm sorry to be meeting friends at a Chinese dive buffet tonight versus eating here, but I'm coming back soon to try their food. It is NOT TexMex. If that is what you're looking for there is an El Fenix within a mile of here that can accommodate you. I'll give an update in a few weeks on the entree options because I will get my diner group to come here soon.

The Hop John rice paired well with the chicken. This place is special.

This place is truly something special, from the gracious hospitality to the incredible menu. The menu delivers elevated Southern comfort food that somehow manages to feel both nostalgic and fresh at the same time. I've worked my way through almost the entire menu over multiple visits, and I can honestly say that everything is incredible. Every time I take someone new there, I tell them that there hasn't been one dish that I've ever thought "meh" about. Every dish is so flavorful and outstanding. That said, I absolutely have my go-to order: the cornbread (a must), the southern greens, and the fried chicken. The cornbread is almost like a melt in your mouth dessert, that I happily start every visit with. The greens are packed with rich, savory flavor, and I'm not kidding when I say that every time I have them, I literally dream about them for weeks after. And the duck fat fried chicken? Crispy, juicy, and hands-down some of the best I've ever had. Beyond the food, the whole experience just feels thoughtful, from the quality of ingredients to the execution of every dish. You can tell there's real intention behind everything coming out of the kitchen. If you're anywhere near Farmers Branch, this spot is worth going out of your way for. And if it's your first visit--trust me, get the cornbread, southern greens, and fried chicken. You'll be dreaming about it later.

As you walk up, you're greeted by great R&B music playing outside, and I assumed the volume inside would match. I was pleasantly surprised--it was perfect. To me, the ideal dining vibe is good music paired with the ability to hold a normal conversation, and they nailed it. The space includes an open seating area along with a roped‑off section for the in‑person kitchen experience. Service: From the moment I walked in, the host made me feel welcome. My server was fairly new, but she was excellent--helpful, attentive, and honest. If she didn't know an answer, she went to find out instead of guessing. She checked in often, made sure we had everything we needed, and genuinely cared about how our meal was going. Outstanding service all around. Food: The food was another highlight. The pork steak was seasoned beautifully--full of flavor and cooked just right. The meatballs, however, were just okay for me. The sauce was delicious, but the meatballs themselves could've used a bit more seasoning. I do wish they offered complimentary bread or included it with dishes. They do have a Rosemary & Garlic Confit Focaccia available for an additional charge, and it's very good, but it would be nice to have a starter option included. Overall: I absolutely recommend giving this place a try. Great food, great music, talented chefs, and genuinely wonderful service. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.
