    Shrimp tacos lettuce wrapped

    Tricky Fish is a coastal cajun restaurant near Whole Foods. They offer lunch and brunch specials and cocktails specials daily. The food is great, very well seasoned with lots of flavor. The dining room is large and open. They also have a wonderful dog friendly patio. The service is good, the staff is very knowledgeable about the menu. Overall, really great.

    Bourbon Sherry Linguine

    We recently visited Tricky Fish for a celebratory lunch honoring a great friend, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Our party of 11 truly enjoyed every last bite. The food was absolutely delicious, and the portion sizes were very generous. Started off with their sample of hush puppies and a side of butter. Highlights included the Kitchen Sink Gumbo loaded with shrimp, fish, chicken, andouille, and rice; the rich and flavorful Bourbon Sherry Shrimp Linguine each dish was prepared beautifully and full of flavor. On top of the great food, the service was outstanding. Cristal and Pantera took excellent care of our large group, keeping everything running smoothly with friendly, attentive service. This was the perfect spot for a celebration, and we'll definitely be back. Also they add 20% gratuity to eight or more as a group automatically

    Fried Green Tomatoes -with blackened shrimp

    It was our first time here. It is a nice sized and bright space. Nice & attentive staff. Mostly tables vs booths (only seats 4 btw). My etouffe was tasty and mild Spicy (default). The kids meal was good quality & portion for my 7 y/o & came with a drink. Redfish dish was a good portion and tasty; okra was crispy fyi. The fried green tomatoes with shrimp and a nice shareable size and fresh. Bloody Mary was a hit. They do have week day happy hour food & drink specials which are tempting. Definitely worth a try if I'm a seafood mood.

    First time here for lunch at Tricky Fish. Was greeted with a smile upon entering and seated immediately. It has a nice bar area as well as tables. I was here right at noon on a weekday. I ordered the Fish & Chips which comes with fries and slaw. The plate/tray with the fish was presented well. The fish was delicious. It was hot and crispy. I liked the tartar sauce, it had a little heat. The slaw was ok and the fries could have been a crispier (personal preference).

    Repeat customers! Service is always friendly and unbeatable. Tonight was no exception. Crystal was awesome! 30A Queso with shrimp added was a nice starter along with the hush puppies during their happy hour. Good deals during happy hour! Family gave thumbs up on the Fish Sandwich with coleslaw and grilled Mahi Mahi with loaded mashed potatoes & grilled squash. Now, to the current special. Crab Stuffed Shrimp = OMG!!! Orzo pilaf with spinach, mushrooms, & grape tomatoes in a lemon butter sauce!!!

    This is one of my favorite restaurants, and my top choice for my birthday dinner this year. However, my birthday happened to fall on Fat Tuesday, so I almost chose another restaurant to avoid the holiday crowd. Thankfully, we were able to reserve a table (online via Yelp) and arrived just before it started to get crowded. The atmosphere was lively: live music, Mardi Gras decorations, staff wearing costumes, etc. The entire staff was on point; bustling around and helping one another like a choreographed dance routine. Our server, Ashley, was a real hoot and she made our evening fun. Food, as always, was delicious. Thanks, Tricky Fish for making my bday special!

    Yummy cocktails

    Drinks were amazing! Strong and tasty! Bartender was sweet and pleasant. Location was nice and ambience was nice. Margarita was classic and nice flavor. Sunset on the Rox was delicious. Will return again.

    OK, but not great. Expensive for the quality. Weak margaritas. Very friendly service.

But from the very first phone call, Sophie at Blackland Distillery showed nothing but grace and patience. She allowed us to keep pushing back our reservation without a hint of frustration, and that alone deserves a standing ovation. When we finally arrived, what could've been a ruined evening turned into one of the most memorable nights we've had. Every single person we encountered at Blackland was incredibly kind and welcoming. Marshall greeted us with warmth, and Jeremy? He's not just a bartender--he's a cocktail artist. The drinks he crafted for us were next-level, easily some of the best we've ever had. He truly understands spirits and how to elevate them. We were genuinely torn when it was time to leave for our dinner reservation at Wicked Butcher--honestly, we could've stayed sipping Jeremy's creations all night. Before we left, we got to meet Sophie in person (she stuck around!), and by that time, we had sampled every single spirit Blackland offers. Each one was exceptional--smooth, bold, and full of character. Take home message: Top-tier spirits, an amazing vibe, and a team that genuinely cares--Blackland Distillery turned a stressful day into an unforgettable celebration. We'll be back... and next time, we're staying all night.

However, I find the food to be quite a let down, not worth the price. I had the sourdough and it was good. I had the steak and fries for the main course with the upgrade cuts of steak. The fries were well seasoned however not all was good evenly and some over cooked and some undercooked. The steak was okay, the sears were bad and so was the overall flavor. Overall, I think it's a great place for a business meet up and if you are standing at the property but nothing too special. Note: this was lunch menu and I heard the burger here is good so many you can try that but I wouldn't recommend the steak at all.
