    Gluten free grouper tacos with a corn cob of goodness
    Christa M.

    Delicious. Visited the Richardson location. The dining room is medium sized and people were waiting for tables at 6:30pm on a Friday night. My hub and I shared hushpuppies, 6 to an order, $4.99. They were small, but were fluffy and tasted good. The rommulade served with it had a Dijon kick to it. I ordered grouper tacos from the gluten free menu (which I simply requested the menu from the server). I really enjoyed the corn cob with parmesan and some kind of spicy sauce on it served on the side. The three tacos had a nice combination of slaw, avocado and fish. We shared the churro dessert. The churros were so delightfully crispy. The caramel sauce and ice cream was the perfect pairing for them. Great service.

    meltdown margarita

    My favorite place for happy hour! The meltdown margarita is so good and only $8 during happy hour. The crispy calamari is my favorite appetizer. The breading compliments the squid well. The bread pudding was the perfect dessert! It wasn't too sweet, and the ice cream complimented it well. Our servers were so sweet and attentive. This is a great place to go to for dinner or happy hour! The clam chowder was also really good. I would get that again. I will definitely be back! There are also tvs to watch any games going on.

    Oysters Rockefeller

    This place has been highly recommended with rave reviews, but unfortunately, the food did not live up to the expectations. Our server was very attentive and welcoming! The menu pricing is fair given its seafood but not super affordable either. We started with the Oysters Rockefeller. The oysters were massive! However, I wasn't really a fan of the sauce, and especially not the lettuce. Because the dish was served hot, the lettuce was soggy and impacted both the texture and taste of the overall dish. The best thing, in my opinion, were the Mac and cheese crab cakes. A truly genius combination. Lastly, the fried catfish was just okay. It was kind of bland but not super crispy either. The portion is really big though. The fries on the side were soggy too and could have spent a couple more minutes in the frier.

    I ordered the ruby red trout with shrimp for my entree, calamari for appetizer, and the churros for dessert. Everything tasted excellent! I loved the white wine sauce that came on the fish. It complemented the fish nicely. I would definitely come back here!

    Met a friend for dinner on a Friday evening. The happy hour for drinks goes until 7, even on Friday. Love that. We had blanco margaritas. My friend loved hers, but I felt it was more sour than needed. We got the dynamite shrimp and crab fingers as apps. Shrimp was awesome! We devoured it before I snapped a pic. Crab fingers were good too. Entrees were delicious! Trout with a white wine sauce and capers and artichoke hearts. The fresh spinach on rice was a perfect accompaniment. I ate the whole thing. Not heavy or too rich. My friend had the salmon. Also cooked perfectly and the veggies were well seasoned. Service was just ok. They got busy while we were eating and I think the staff was overwhelmed. All in all--quality food and worth the visit.

    Food was really good. Louisianans this isn't New Orleans so don't expect that. But this is really good and flavorful! Better and cheaper than pappadeux. I got the gumbo, calamari and Texas redfish. Definitely recommend stopping by if you want some great seafood. Only thing for improvement is the decor! There are a lot of white walls, bar area has no personality with all the white walls. But the food and service make up for it. If they had some decor I def think it would elevate this place even more! Still 5 starts for sure.

    Food and drinks here were amazing with great selections. $5 for a Bloody Mary?! Can't beat that price, but not only that, it tasted really good. The food tasted home cooked and flavor was not lacking. We did the soup fight and chowder was probably our favorite. Fish and pasta dish were also fantastic. Service was also great. I can see why they get packed. We went after lunch rush hour and there was still a bit of a wait.

    Great seafood restaurant located in The Shire Richardson Tx at Plano City border Jupiter at George Bush Tollway (190 ) Family run restaurant with Four locations. Appetizers were delicious. Shrimp cocktail prepared table side was a nice touch. The gumbo and roasted poblano cream soup were excellent starters. Among the Chef Specialties you'll find beer battered cod . Huge 3 piece with cole slaw and fried potatoes. Traditional Seafood has Texas Gulf Brown Shrimp with Cole slaw ,hush puppies, and French fries was a nice choice. Bar is well stocked with tasty Martinis , Margaritas, and beer. Happy hour All weekend too ! $7.95 for any selection Atmosphere, ambience, and service are a cut above Add this to your seafood restaurant favorites See you there

    We have ordered from here several times and the food is always good and the order is always correct. However this time we ordered 2 Po boys one shrimp and one fish. Easy enough order however we get home and we got 2 shrimp Po boys and unfortunately I'm allergic to shrimp. I tried calling them several times and the phone just keeps going to voicemail. I just had to warm up something at home for myself because we don't live that close by and by time we would go back to let them know, my husband's food would be cold. Needless to say I'm sad cause I was looking forward to my catfish. So always check your order.

    Dynamite Shrimp Tacos
    M W.

    Great seafood options for a reasonable price. The dynamite shrimp was perfectly crispy and the sauce is really good. The catfish came out hot and fresh and that with a dollop of the cold tartar sauce was a great bite of food. The fries were fine, nothing extravagant. The extended day time happy hour is a great perk!

    Anna S.

    Amazing Cajun seafood! We were so impressed by the extensive menu and the generous portion sizes. We enjoyed every dish! Don't forget to look at their daily specials as well.

    Crispy Calamari
    Serene C.

    This place is wonderful! The calamari appetizer is really tasty and crispy yet tender inside. The fish and chips were good too. The dynamite shrimp tacos were alright, nothing too spectacular about it. The Bourbon Street Texas Redfish had many interesting elements to it but the gumbo itself lacked some depth of flavor. I think it seems like a hit or miss depending on the dishes but the overall quality is still there. I'd go back to try more things as they do have a great extensive menu for a seafood restaurant. The service was good and they even had live music when we went.

    Honey Chipotle Glazed Cedar Plank Salmon
    Melissa C.

    We've ordered takeout from Anaya's before and decided to dine in this time, and it was a great experience. We were greeted and seated right away and given a few minutes to look over both the regular menu and the chalkboard specials. Since it was late, we skipped appetizers, but our entrées came out in about 10 minutes. I ordered the salmon, which was a generous portion and cooked exactly as requested--moist, flavorful, and well-seasoned. The mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables on the side were also tasty. Everyone else at the table enjoyed their meals as well. We'll be back.

The food was absolutely delicious and the ambiance was wonderful and perfect for a catch up with my friend: warm, inviting, and perfect service! The burrata salad was outstanding, and the pasta was equally impressive. We also shared the bread pudding for dessert, which was incredible and the perfect ending to the evening. The lobster dishes and wine selection were excellent as well. What really stood out, however, was the exceptional service: attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming without ever being intrusive.

This location felt like I was inside a fancy boat To start - the most unique and delicious chips I've ever had. I'm coming back first and foremost for the chips! Haven't seen chips this full of flavor before The prickly pear refresher was amazing - just mint, lemon, soda and prickly pear puree? This is one I'm going to make at home The same chips are used for the tuna dip but I'd like to note their pickled jalapeno - that was fire. So much flavor here Shrimp salad was great too, I enjoyed how balanced the dish was The baked alaska was a mix of chocolate and strawberry on the inside - everything was done from scratch. One recommendation is to add a layer between the ice cream and marshmallow is possible The black wagyu gold something tomahawk was divine - maybe better than any bbq I've been to. Nothing was spared here I also got the key lime pie, it was more grainy than I expected and the key lime was mostly in the reduction (?) to be poured on Overall, tomahawk, crackers, prickly pear drink (forgot to mention crab cake) were my favorites Staff was friendly too!
