I always have the red snapper veracruz which is really good and my favorite. I decided for a change and tried the boiled shrimp . It was nice! I guess you won't go wrong with any item on the menu.

I'm a fan of seasoned food so this wasn't as great as all the reviews claim. If you think this is great your head would pop off tasting what the cooks at David's Catfish in Monroeville prepare.

Vanessa Burns

The catfish fried "snappy" which is spicy is just perfect. Fried to perfection....I should have gotten a three piece.

Cold beer ! Crawfish , oysters and fish just like they prepare it in Mexico...head and all. A classic joint I need to frequent more often.

Kate Jones

Oyster poboys , Red Snapper Veracruz and their stunning desserts are to die for. Park down Lovell (eastward) if the immediate parking is slim.

Po' boys are fantastic. Salads and gumbo are wonderful. Tell them to "make it snappy" if you like it spicy

Eric Worth

Last time I got a basket and it was pretty good. This time got the BBQ shrimp - Excellent! Also they have blue moon on tap .

Catfish of course… but the fried okra and hush puppies rocked too

Karl Warden

Dorah Mendez

Mexican cocktail is delicious..... "Make it Snappy" for a spicy experience! Great food!

Chainsaw

Make it SNAPPY! It's how you order your fish blackened... Very delicious! They're opening a Flying Fish in Arlington soon too! Can't wait.

Hope Young

Best Fried Catfish Ever At A Great Price!

Save your money on the GUMBO . Hate it when you have to dig to find the seafood ...and then it's only small previously frozen shrimp . If you like Okra then you'll love the gumbo I guess.

The fish tacos here are the best in DFW!!!

Joshua Bishop

For low cal try the protein platter with double trout . Extra hungy get some oysters on the halfshell or a Mexican cocktail !

Julie Collins

Excellent spot -- delish & fun

Robert Dechant

The fish was good but it was more crowded than I expected. I'd be interested to try it at lunch and see what the crowd is like then.

B Allred

If you want “mud bugs”, drive to Weatherford & eat at Boo-Rays. It is worth the trip. They are so bland & dry here. Never again!!!

Jason Banton

Be sure to get anything on the menu.

Shane O
