Have gone there several times and really enjoy the food. Today went there at 2pm ish and the place was very empty which we figured we would get good service. Long story short we left as we waited for about 10 min and no one even came to the table to get drink orders. Again there was not a lot of people and we were the only new people that arrived. Hope this is not the beginning of a place that has good food but the service starts to decline. read more

We went for a work lunch today and had a great experience! We had 6 people in our group. We had two orders of the grilled Caesar salad with shrimp, two orders of the Tricky Fish plate, one order of the fish (Mahi Mahi) tacos, and one D.G.S. (Darn Good Salad) with chicken. This was a first time visit for all of us and it definitely won't be the last. The food was delicious and freshly prepared. I personally had the grilled Caesar salad with shrimp. I think it is a new lunch favorite for me! Everything in the salad is lightly grilled and it had a great taste! We met the manager, James, and he rocked! One person in our party arrived a little ahead of the rest of us and met James first. James and his staff were attentive and friendly, and added to the overall experience. I'm not a big on desserts but we sampled a couple of the French Toast Sundaes and OMG!!! Pure, sinfully delicious comfort in a bowl and well worth the splurge. It was unanimous that we all want to go back and can't wait to try another treat on the menu. read more

Me and my husband came here yesterday & I'm not even a big fan of sea food but omg the tricky fish plate was the bomb.com and the hostess Jackie was super friendly big smile on her face as we came in I will definitely be coming back soon! read more

Tricky Fish has become a regular lunch destination for me. The management, service, and food are all exceptional. For the second time, I ordered the cheeseburger. It is delicious! The bacon jam they put on it gives it distinction. Even though this is mainly a fish and seafood restaurant, I highly recommend you try the cheeseburger. And if you haven't tried the okra yet, it is the incredible and prepared in a very unique way! See you again soon, Tricky Fish! read more

Went here for a late humpday lunch and we split fried shrimp/oysters. Everything was perfect including the fries (which are an afterthought at some places). And a cold! beer. Well done Tricky fish! read more

Food was delicious and portion sizes were adequate. Only issue is the parking! No To-go parking designated anywhere in the shopping complex. Inside the restaurant was hopping, busy, clean. Staff were pleasant enough to help with our pick up order. Nice area for the family to try a whole host of different places to eat. Near the State Farms new complex in Richardson/Plano area. read more

Really enjoyed the food...we had the Mac&Cheese, tricky fish and the catfish po boy and it was all yummy!

Went during busy lunch time. The way they assign tables, take orders and pay were very efficient. The food was very good. The portions are plentiful. We had the shrimp poor boy, blacked fish poor boy and shrimp mac and cheese. Everyone enjoyed their dishes. We will be back. read more

Loved the place! Our first experience was really great. The waitress was very friendly and helpful with the selections. I had the fried catfish which was good. The drinks (Pom margarita) was very nice and the draft beers were amazing. We will be back! read more

I went here twice in the last 1.5 week and it was great each time. Had "crackling" for the first time with my southern friend. He thought they were among the best he's had. Of course the fish and chips is good, as are the various seafood plates. The bar is excellent as well with plenty of choice. Ariana was our server and was very attentive and accommodating. The manager came by the table too, Blake. Both Ariana and Blake did great. We'll be back a third time and more. read more

Tricky fish is absolutely great. The liquor and drink menu was the Best and what a great variety of craft beers. The wait staff and managers are excellent. The food was delicious especially the roasted okra and oysters on the half shell were delicious. I would recommend everyone coming to Tricky fish for their next meal. read more

Fun, friendly, good food, great drinks! Craft beers from local breweries on tap, and happy hour until close. That is all...

This place is great the girls at the bar "Rock" (Lydia and Kennedy)they are very attentive and friendly. The food is way above average and I've not had anything that I didn't like. read more

This place is amazing! We went for Fat Tuesday and had the best food, drinks, and the customer service is on-point. We joked that we didn't want to tell anyone about it because we don't want to have a long wait. I Will probably be back next week. read more

Great food! Very nice staff!! Unique spin on seafood. Great oysters! I live in the Lot B apartments and is convenient to walk to. One of the must eat places at the 75/George Bush corridor. read more

Great place to eat fish sticks! Reminds me of the fish sticks the ole timers used to bake.

I had a wonderful time here. I've been a couple of times and the food and drinks have been spot on. Kennedy and Caitlyn are awesome with mixing up drinks. Chanel is a wonderful hosts and greets you with a warm smile and pleasant attitude. I have gotten the mac and cheese and it is to die for. It is creamy and cheesy and exactly what macaroni should taste like. The crawfish gumbo is savory with a little bite at the end. It has an excellent atmosphere and a good bar with large tv's that you can see from any spot in the restaurant. The managers have always been friendly and attentive to any needs or concerns that I have. The regulars are just as cheery and wonderful as the people. This is becoming one of my new favorite spots, especially with its convenient location at Cityline right between George bush highway and 75. read more

This place was phenomenal!! The service was awesome and fast! The food was top of the line! Try the French toast Sundae!

I decided to try the food after reading so many great reviews and I was really disappointed. The fish was horrible and the fries were even worse. Maybe they just had an off day, but I felt like I'd been robbed. Never again! read more

Came here two nights ago, food was good, service was great. Our server was Brandon. Came back tonight was directed to a bar table at 920 instead of the regular dining since they were trying to close that side down almost two hours early. Unfortunately, Jake was "the bartender and bar table server." Long story short service was horrible. He spent his time taking smoke breaks and eating food behind the bar instead of taking care of customers. There was food particles in our water that he knew was there when he delivered it and then just stopped working altogether. The only decent bing about this place tonight was Gustavo. Thank you for actually caring about people dining in your restaurant and working while you're at work. Jake should really train with you to understand the difference between just kicking it at work not having a care in the world and actually working while you're at work. Definitely won't be back. Such a poor experience compared to our time there Tuesday evening. Don't waste your time here. There is plenty of other places in Cityline to spend your money. read more

pretty cool place and friendly employees. food is good but too much breading on the fish.

My wife and I are always looking for new places to eat, especially if they feature "cajun" food as my wife is from New Orleans. I had read reviews for Tricky Fish and thought we would give it a try. My wife started out with the Cracklin' (it was still crackling when brought out to the table) and I had the Kitchen Sink Gumbo. Wife really liked the cracklin, but the gumbo was pretty much par with what's available outside of La. Roux was too dark and had a burnt flavor.For dinner wife had the fried shrimp platter and I had the fried catfish po' boy. Both were very good. Our waiter, Mike, was entertaining and friendly, always making sure we were ok. Since this was our first visit, Mike offered a complimentary dessert, french toast sundae, which was outstanding. 4 stars because of the gumbo, otherwise I would have given 5 stars. However, we will more than likely to return to try other items on the menu. read more

Our cleaning lady today said she goes to "Tricky Fish" and thought it was good, so my wife and I went tonight. Good? We never got a chance to try it. We arrived a little after 5PM and were immediately seated. The place was about 25% full. The drink menu was mainly beer and the food menu was mainly Cajun. That's great since we go to New Orleans every six weeks just to EAT Cajun food. We were seated by the window and we sat.....and sat.....and sat.....and sat. Others are coming into the restaurant being seated and waited on. We just sat....and sat.....and sat. When I saw the booth behind us get seated (after us) and a waitress immediately showed up to help them, I knew it was time to leave. What just happened is my #1 pet peeve in the restaurant industry. Keep in mind that there were PLENTY of employees standing around. We went across the driveway to Edoko and had sushi (I'll write that review next....it was EXCELLENT!) After we left Edoko I walked by Tricky Fish and several employees were standing outside. The employees were nice and friendly and I explained the previous situation. I asked if a manager was in and they said ALL of them are here. A few minutes later they brought out one of the managers. I explained what happened earlier...he apologized and asked what he could do (I'm guessing like a free appetizer or something). I explained I wasn't telling him this to get free food.... I just wanted to make him aware so nobody else had the lousy service (ie LACK of service) we had. We won't go back. How a restaurant can have SO MANY employees with Multiple MANAGERS to watch over them, yet not handle their number one source of revenue ---- THE CUSTOMER. Hopefully this isn't indicative of the restaurant and was just an anomaly....I HOPE. read more
