This was the first time Ive been served oysters with mud on them. And a shell without an oyster in it. Not on the shell on the oysters itself. One of them looked like it had a puss pocket on it. I wish I had taken a picture. My waitress Sandra blew it off with a "yah sometimes that happens, they are supposed to wash them off, Ill get you another dozen" I was curious what she would bring out next. The new dozen looked like they came from a completely Different bAtch. I have to thank her for getting the kitchen to pick out some good ones. Sandra was an excellent waitress and I hope this review doesnt reflect poorly on her. I tried to find a number for the corporate office but it looks like this location is Locally owned. I cannot believe a manager never stopped by. You served us mud abd puss. This is the most vile restaurant Ive been to.

My wife and I went after purchasing a groupon. We had Crab Cakes as an appetizer. She had the blackened catfish. It came with some charred veggies. The fish and veggies were very good. I had the pick 3 and I picked the popcorn shrimp, fried catfish, and the stuffed crabs. It came with hush puppies and fries. The Crab cakes were Ok. We probably wouldn’t order them again. The rest of the food was excellent. We are both from South Louisiana and this is how the seafood taste where we grew up. We will be back and I will be recommending the place to all of my friends in this area from South Louisiana. The service was good and the place was clean.

Worst fish tacos. Horrible management, and servers dont know their specials. Dont waste your time here. They do not care about the customer. We went and we were the only ones there, and when the server misinformed is on the specials and the bill came we politely told the manager and he said he was "doing us a favor" by adjusting the bill, to the correct tab. As we went back and forth he finally changed it, and then turned off the tv basically to get us out of there. No wonder why no one was here! Worst customer service ever! Needs new management and better server training!

I went for dinner with my family because of a Groupon. This place sucks. The terrible ventilation left an unpleasant smell in my clothes and in my nose from the kitchen. The crab cakes that we ordered tasted horrible which forced us to send them back. The fried calamari was a complete ripoff. It comes on a huge bed of French fries to make it look like theres more, but really only only have a few peices of calamari at $11.99. The catfish was okay, however was also on a bed of French fries and only came out with 4 small peices for $11.99. Dont get suckered by a Groupon.

Came here for the first time a few months back and loved it! I try to take the family here every few weeks or so. So far I have had the fish tacos, quesadilla, gumbo, and mexican cocktail. All of which I have to say are delicious. I talked to the manager of this place and apparently they have been recently bought out by new owners which i guess explains some of the older reviews. Overall great experience and I will be back again. One of the best hidden gems in Arlington!

Thought it was a little sketchy from the outside appearance, however, as soon as we walked inside it was very clean and friendly atmosphere. We started with the oysters, you can never go wrong there... absolutely delicious. The Tilapia Rancheros was AMAZING, if I could have kept eating I would have, but I needed to be able to make it out the door. The portions were HUGE. I still have a whole meal leftover. It is definitely a spot you should stop for dinner.

THe fries were excellent. I had the shrimp and fries. The shrimp was cooked well but lacked any flavour. The huspuppies were bland but the tartar sauce made everything taste 100% better. Ive been wanting to try this place for years but never took the time. I wouldnt have today had it not been for a major seafood craving and Groupon. Will not try it again.

We just flew in from the airport and this was the closest sports bar to our Airbnb so we came here for game three of the NBA finals. Unfortunately the place was pretty dead and they were closing up before the end of the game. Food was OK to good, but the margarita with syrupy sweet. Great if thats what you like. Overall a good experience with friendly staff.

I passed this place all time its always crowded. It was my first time at this establishment. My orders to go was on point. I enjoyed the grilled salmon & fresh vegetables. My husband enjoyed the shrimp and fish plate. The cost were reasonably priced. I will try them again. Thanks my food was fresh and delicious. Hostess and the manager were so nice.

Food is pretty good. I really enjoyed the catfish nuggets. The service is fast and friendly. They have a nice size patio area that servers and customers are always walking in and out of which leads the the inside being consistently hot in the summers. Other than that overall good experience.

Great food! I recommend order their pick 3s. You can order a basket of whatever 3 items you wants and everything was delicious. Margaritas are delicious too....catfish, scallops, buffalo shrimp, chicken straps, hush puppies.....stuffed crab, Ill stop now. Getting really hungry now.

I have been going here since I was a child. My dad used to take us for dinner all the time. I have several fond memories here. Love the food, next time I go I would like to try the drinks. I like the updated look, but I do miss the old patio. Great place, I will always eat here !!!

I had the shrimp feast. Batter on the shrimp was over cooked and had very little flavor. Fries were soggy as well. We also had the fish and chips which were also over cooked to the point where the batter was burned. My father had the shrimp po boy, lacking in flavor as well.

Beer was cold. Blackened Shrimp Queso was fantastic. Only problem with the Blackened Sea Bass was that I left wanting more. Server was busy but friendly and professional. Classic Rock playing low. Soccer on the big screen. Overall great experience.

Good Lord their food is good here. Located right across Collins/FM 157 from AT&T Stadium, they serve up some of the best seafood in the Metroplex. Lunch is the best value for your money, although they have good Happy Hour drink specials for dinner.

The gumbo is excellent. The fish and chips are good. Id order either again. The gumbo bowl was large and enough for a meal. Its noises inside, but typical of a sports bar. The service was friendly and quick. Id eat here again

Good service at 8:30pm (closes at 9pm) on a Mon night. We came in to watch the NBA Finals because Groupon calls this a sports bar. It only has 2 tvs but they are big. Seafood was average. Shiner Bock was cold in a schooner.

Ive been here several times, and each time gets better and better. The food is awesome! The atmosphere is on point. Their service is amazing. If you come here try the blackened sampler and the blackened shrimp queso.
