I took two bites of my meal and sent it back and instead of pleasantries I was met with offense. Apparently the owner IS the cook, and took it personally that my meal was inedible. A normal establishment will remove this from the bill with no qualms. Not here. They'll still charge you, just a discounted rate (; no worries! I can't say enough how awful this experience was.

We brought our own fish that we caught today. We called ahead to make sure they could do that for us. The lady on the phone was very nice and sweet. She had the same personality in person and even knew it was us who called when we walked in with our filleted fish. If you bring your own fish, you entitled to one salad and one soup per person. We ordered hush puppies and fried pickles. While I didn't eat the hush puppies but my buddies did and they said these were the best they've ever had. The fried pickles were on point and tasted very delicious. Now for our fish, we had them blackened and fried. I definitely preferred the blackened over fried due to the flavorful taste it had compared to the fried. They do have a nice small bar as well Definitely come check this little place out if you're in the area.

We were seated immediately and the server took our orders in a timely manner. We didn't wait long for our food either. This large establishment offers a few outdoor seating overlooking the view of street traffic as people head onto and off the causeway. Might get sunny on a hot summer day! The interior offers plenty of seating as they have two large dining areas. They also have a display of their "fresh catch". Overall, good but not excellent seafood. I did enjoy their ceviche. The mariachi added charisma to the ambiance.

The restaurant is much the same and the service was equally friendly. From among the choices that day, I opted for a menu item named seafood Florentina and would be eating inside the small but tidy restaurant. The platter was good, with the main ingredient - the fish - being tasty. The portion sizes were good and the accompanying salad and broth were appreciated. The presentation just didn't look like any other Florentine dish I've had. It was sort of "busy," with other ingredients I've not seen in Florentine presentations in the U.S. I think it's something they can revisit if they choose to. Note that this is a strong 3 stars for Fish King in Brownsville and it's for the restaurant. Note that it's much easier to approach this restaurant from Brownsville, traveling eastbound, so you can make a right turn between its entry pilasters to its parking lot. With all the business they do and loyal customer base, it's fairly obvious that the fish market itself delivers.

This is my kind of place, chill vibe at the marina, looking at beautiful boats on the water. The food was outstanding! we had blackened shrimp tacos and blackened mahi tacos with a side of chips and pico, (all freshly made) and 2 frozen drinks that tasted like dessert. EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING!!! And I am not exaggerating, it has been the best food I have had since I landed here. Do yourself a favor and get out of the crappy strip mall restaurants and give this place a go. It feels like you are on vacation and it won't break the bank either...very reasonably priced for the amount of food you receive and the quality of the food. I wish I took photos but I was so hungry when I arrived and kind of forgot.. highly recommend!

Unfortunately, we found the food a bit underwhelming compared to some of the other restaurants we visited during our stay. We ordered the mahi tacos, and while the sauce was nice, the tacos came out somewhat cold. They weren't bad, but they just didn't leave much of an impression. The service was alright as well. We arrived about 10 minutes after opening and ended up standing around for a bit before someone came over to take our order. Overall, we loved the ambiance and location, but the food and service didn't quite measure up to some of the other spots we tried in South Padre.

I ordered the potato scallops at the recommendation of our server. My husband had the red snapper filet. Both of our dishes were very good. Our server Uzi also did an amazing job checking on us and making sure we had what we needed. We will always return when we come to SPI. My only recommendation to the restaurant is that is probably due for an face lift. It still has dark walls, table, chairs, and floors. Compared to the newer restaurants in SPI that compare with the same type of food is that this one is dated. The newer ones are more modern and brighter. I know it doesn't make a difference with the food but I do think the ambiance would be better.

I totally understand that food runners help out, but we had more interactions with the runner than with our server. We were never asked how everything was, if we needed anything, or if we wanted refills. We're not the type to complain and we're very low-maintenance when we go out to eat. We had a long day and just wanted a light dinner, so it was a little surprising. This was actually the best food we've had at any restaurant we've visited this week, which made it even more disappointing that the service didn't match the quality of the meal.

Our waitress was attentive, friendly, and had a great demeanor to her. I started off with a Premier Corona to curb off any bad energy I might have walked in with & humbled myself to give this mom and pop joint a chance. The menu offers all your standard Mexican seafood staples. We went for the mariscada for 2 which was a terrific portion for two grown adults with a heavy appetite (mind you no app's were ordered). In the mariscada there was plentiful fish, shrimp, jalapeño cheese bites, fries, and onion rings. This was accompanied by two plates of rice, salad and two cups of consomé. The rice was flavorful & the consomé was super tasty, on the heavier side since it had pieces of shrimp and heavy handed spice but very memorable. The batter used on all the food was very palatable. Needless to say, dinner ended up being delightful. The manager rang us up and informed us that they would start having karaoke nights starting in January. The entire time they played great Mexican music that will have you strumming to the beat. So I'm positive their karaoke nights will be a hit. Tired or wanting to try a new Mexican seafood spot? THIS place is for you!!
