My husband and I went with my parents while visiting them. We really enjoyed our meal. It was funny because the server kept apologizing because their POS system was down and my husband and I kept reassuring her that we respect the OG way of doing things. Even with their system down our server was prompt, always thinking ahead and kept checking in. Much respect for great service these days. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals and we look forward to our visit again this weekend for my Mom's 80th!! Look, this is a college town when it's all said and done and you wouldn't know it in their establishment. The pace is slowed down from the college hustle and bustle, which is a nice change of pace and their vibe is just laid back, relaxed and elegant. This is my Mom's favorite restaurant and she's a tough one too. read more

After all the years I have been going to Fish Daddy's this last time I ordered my food I was really surprised how small the portions have become of the same thing I order every time. read more

Wow, the name sounds back woods, but this restaurant is anything but. After stepping through the door, the elegant dining area caught my eye. Wow, it's really nice! I guess I was expecting rustic. The whole crew was friendly and attentive. The server had our drinks and menus out in a snap and was attentive throughout. While there are many options, Fish is clearly the star of this show. The blackened fish sounded good, but I do really like creole. So, I got the Atchafalaya, which was blackened fish topped with Creole! It really hit THE spot. My wife had the fried shrimp which she really enjoyed as well. Everything was perfect! If you are looking for something above average with great prices, you can't beat Fish Daddy's! Ambiance-5 Service-5 Food-5 Price-5 I really liked this place! read more

Came here for the first time with my family. Ordered the fried catfish and fried shrimp combo w/ shrimp and sausage gumbo, mahimahi, bacon and cheddar burger, a full rack of ribs, fried green tomatoes w/ grits, huuuuge onion rings, key lime pie, and bread pudding. The bacon and cheddar burger was under seasoned and tasted ok. Everything was delicious. The ribs were super flavorful, tender, and fell off the bone. The mahimahi was cooked to perfection. The fried catfish and fried shrimp were fried perfectly and the portions were a good size. The gumbo had a little kick to it, but delicious as well. The desserts were delicious. The onion rings were massive and crunchy. The fried green tomatoes were fried and paired nicely with the grits. Waitress Abby was fast and friendly. Lots of tables and chairs to dine at. Lots of parking as well. read more

Overall, great experience and even better food. We had the Firecracker Shrimp as an appetizer. Amazing sauce, not spicy but very favorable. I always add a side of ranch because the combination is perfection. I had the Fish Daddy's Combo and really enjoyed the chicken tenders and the Coconut Shrimp. My friend had the FD Cioppino & Linguine. At first hesitant because of the price but thoroughly enjoyed it. Plenty of leftovers. For desert, we had the bread pudding. It was light, favorable and definitely worth it. We went around 3pm so it was less crowded. We had a great server. She was attentive and she did the one thing I love out of my servers, she refilled my drinks without being asked to. I appreciate when a server is monitoring her tables and making certain we had everything we needed. read more

Came here the other night with a large party and the ambiance is great for a special occasion. It is clean and nicely decorated and the prices are wonderful!! Service: The service was mediocre for a large party. They were friendly except brought us only 3 appetizer plates for a party of 12...They would constantly forget things and bring it out late too. Calamari: The calamari was a big hit! The portion was great and it also comes with fried zucchini which was surprisingly good. The calamari only comes with tartar sauce though. FD Trio dip: This appetizer was meh. I don't know what I was expecting. No one really touched the salsa. The spinach dip was extremely spicy. The queso was the fan fave though. Steak: The steak was somewhat tender but it had a nice grilled taste to it. The mashed potatoes were good! You can choose any two sides with your meal and it was a great portion. Tried the rice and it was also good. The french fries were not that great and a little worse than fast food quality. read more

Single meal day and Fish Daddy's the choice. Selected a fried green tomato appetizer with a mango jalapeño margarita and trout, red beans and rice main course. Ended with a bread pudding desert large enough for two. Staff were attentive and quick with requests. Recommend stopping in for a drink or meal when in tow read more

I'm surprised I never reviewed Fish Daddy. I am a pescatarian so this is a regular spot for me to go to for special occasions. This time we went for my friend Cindy's birthday. This a nice restaurant with good ambiance and service. Our waitress on this occasion was super patient with us, thankfully. For a drink I ordered The Red Queen, it was decent but not very strong of course. I like a strong drink. For my meal I ordered the Kale Salmon Salad, no Kale substitute mixed greens. It was very good. Anyway Fish Daddy's is pretty much a sure thing to be decent for food, service and ambiance. no surprises. read more

Great ambience and service. The staff is really friendly. There is a diverse collection of entrées, but it seemed like the type of fish is limited to catfish and salmon. There are other type of seafood like shrimp, crawfish in étouffée, fried oysters, etc. I really liked the mule cocktail because it had ginger beer in it. read more

Fish Daddy's Seafood Grill - Atchafalaya with baked potato and steamed broccoli - Seafood Near Me - College Station, Texas

So we were wanting seafood today and decided to give this spot a try. We were seated immediately and our server Josh was right there for our drink orders. I got the house frozen margarita and my son got a Michelob Ultra that was super cold. I ordered the fried crawfish Cobb salad which was absolutely amazing. The salad itself was crisp and fresh. It had tons of avocados which is a plus. The crawfish had a great flavor although it was pretty salty. I only say that because I'm not a huge salt fan. I couldn't tell if they had salt added after frying or if it was actually in the batter and that was why it was salty. But.... It was still very good! It came with a dressing that tasted like it had horseradish sauce in it. It was good, but I think next time I might get just a Caesar dressing or ranch. I am kinda a plain Jane country girl. Ha ha My son got the fish daddy combo. It had grilled salmon, blackened catfish, blackened shrimp and broccoli and Brussel sprouts. All the seafood was amazing. Great flavor and cooked perfectly. He is on a keto diet so this was all on his diet. The only thing he said he would do different, is to tell them no rice because there was a very generous portion of rice under his fish. Also, he said he wished the Brussels had been cooked just a little longer. This was a definite win and we both said several times we wanted to come back. The portion size for the money was great. The atmosphere was also very inviting. It wasn't loud and it was easy to carry on a conversation read more

First off, the SERVER was EXCELLENT. She did her job well and moved on. She took our order PERFECTLY. Ask for Klara! The food was tasty, but they did not do my order correctly. I just put the ingredient I didn't want to the side. We ordered a salad. YOU GET ONE almost a tequila-shot-sized "thingy" of salad dressing. RIDICULOUS! Hehe. We were going to be charged for the number of extra salad dressing we desired. We won't be going back. It's the little things that count, y'all. read more

I only recently discovered this place through word of mouth by a dear friend. Am I very glad I followed her lead. The area and atmosphere are nice and the food is excellent!I have since made this place a regular stop. I am a bit of a snob about burgers and chicken tenders and this place has some of the best in town! The service is fantastic and i have never had any mistakes with an order. read more

As a local, this is one of the best seafood restaurants in town.

Service is very bad. The food is mediocre. Wait stuff is not very attentive and do not know much about the menu.

A gorgeous place - that's a right balance between upscale and college-esque. I had the Atlantic Salmon with buttered corn and mashed potatoes (just $18 w/o tax or tip)! The corn was exquisite and perfectly complemented the slightly tangy fish. My server was prompt and courteous. We were seated instantly and served within 5 minutes. I would recommend and come back. read more

Some of the best blackened and fried catfish I've had. The restaurant is beautiful on the inside and service was top notch.

food was great. my family went here for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed all our food. Hawaiian chicken was spot on, fried shrimp was great and fish that came on fish and chips dinner was excellent. Shrimp fondue was good and great appetizer for 3. French fries not so good, string fries and not tasty. Service was average. read more

So so amazing! My boyfriend and I tried this place after hearing great things about it. I can say it does NOT disappoint. We're both from major cities so we're used to really high prices for food, but the prices for this meal were insanely good. I also got a sweet potato which wasn't on the menu but saw it in some other photos and decided to ask about it! The food was good and portion sizes were reasonable. I never finish my meals but this one I licked the plate clean! Will definitely be coming back next time I'm in cstat read more

Another great meal. Different lovely server but same, delightful service. What compelled me to write another 5 Star review again so soon was among the holiday decorations I spotted something (see photo). I'm not a big churchgoer but I respect the few businesses that acknowledge the reason we have the Christmas Holiday, realize that 95 of non-Christians don't care if another religion is displayed, say "to hell with" the remaining 5% troublemakers looking for their 15 min of fame. read more

I was so excited to try another Fish Daddies. The one in Tulsa is one of the best restaurants in Tulsa. I finally was in town and free to try this one. Maybe my expectations were too high. Maybe it was an off night. It certainly wasn't a busy night though. I was seated promptly. But it took almost 10 minutes for a waitress to come get my drink. She rushed off before I could say I wanted to order. The water took quite awhile and I ordered. I looked around and she only had a few small tables. Most of the time she was no where to be seen. When I left. I realized sit was because she was sitting out front talking to the hostess. But I digress. My actual rating is based on the restaurant not the waitress. First, the menu is not the same as the Tulsa store. It's close. But about half the selection. They didn't have the fish taco combo. I asked in case it was an off menu option and it wasn't. So, I elected to make a combo by ordering the fish tacos and the salad. Their full order of fish tacos were good but constituted the same amount of food that Tulsa gives you in their combo (half an order). The taste was close but not quite as good. The salad was pretty similar. They had the same lemon vinaigrette but it too did not seem as flavorful. Perhaps it is watered down more here? All in all it was a decent experience. But far from the 4-5 stars I give the Tulsa location on every visit. read more

We love the key lime pie. And Hawaiian Chicken is so good you can cut it with a fork!

We had dinner there this evening. It looked so crowded but for us 2 we got in right away. The food was excellent. My husband had grilled catfish and grilled shrimp cooked perfectly. I had grilled salmon and baked potato. My salmon was perfect on a bed of rice. The service was fantastic. Our waiter checked on us 3 times!! We highly recommend this restaurant in college station. The price was great too!!! read more

Seafood?? Not so much. Catfish, shrimp and talipia... yes.. here is my simple gripe.. I ordered a side of Broccoli and drawn or just melted butter.. they could not accomplish that.. do they not have an oven, stove top, microwave? I wanted a simple warm butter for the fish and broccoli. How tough is that? 2 stars for food and service.. too bad.. I'd love to be a regular! read more

Service is good. Food is very affordable. Good spot for large groups without the rowdiness of a roadhouse. Cool fish tank inside.

I had a really nice experience eating here with a group for a special occasion. We made a reservation, and they were actually able to seat us early (upon the arrival of at least half of the party). We had very nice servers during our experience. Everyone really enjoyed the food that they ordered. The fried calamari was a great appetizer. I had the fried catfish, baked potato and red beans & rice. They were both tasty, although the beans were a bit spicier than I expected. I would definitely return if in the area. read more

Cajun pasta is bomb dot com. I like tnt shrimp too. Pretty solid with gluten free options.

Excellent Food and service with a very enjoyable environment full of ambiance and class. I started with a delicious cup of their gumbo, which was spot on and made with the perfect amount of spice, shrimp and other tasty ingredients. For my entree, I went with the combo of their blackened cat fish, grilled salmon and crawfish. Sides included steamed broccoli and a cup of their red beans. Let me tell you, WOW! Just a full plate of deliciousness and incredible flavors! Broccoli was fresh and perfect to go with the dish. The Red beans are outstanding! The two fish was an OMG experience for me. The crawfish was just as good as the gumbo! I murdered that plate! There was no way I was going to take anything to go. Highly recommend this place. The host was very professional and polite. My waitress was courteous and kind and with a very good attitude and recommendations. The restaurant was very clean, and a very pleasant atmosphere. Quiet and classy! read more

My husband and I were traveling to College Station and looking for a good place to eat. As I read the reviews I noticed they read like a Novela. LOL. However, we choose to stop and try them out. I am not sure why they have any negative reviews as the service was amazing, Diego was our waiter and was friendly and attentive. We had the calamari for an appetizer and were surprised to find some fried zucchini on there as well. Definitely recommend! We both had the Fish & Chips, which tasted amazing and to end the evening we enjoyed the bread pudding, recommended by Diego and the Blonde Oreo Cheesecake which both were a perfect ending to a great dinner. I highly recommend you skipping and reviews below a 3 star and come and enjoy a great evening of good food and service. read more

The food is delicious and the choices are varied. You don't have to be a fish lover to eat here. It can be noisy on a busy day which makes it hard to talk to people across the table. We made reservations for our group of 8. Our server was very patient and the food came out hot. If you like giant thick onion rings this is your place. read more

Fish Daddy's is a great place to grab a quick and tasty bite and or beverage! There's lots of room to spread out and, unlike some of the noisy places nearby, you can actually hear the other folks at your table. Service is very good and staff and hostesses make you feel that they are actually happy to have you dining with them. Next time I'm going to start with a huge stack of onion rings like the table next door did. They were piled high and looked golden crunchy crisp! Instead, we tried the Seafood Fondue recommended by friends. Wish I'd done the rings instead. The Signature Salad with fried green tomatoes was really tasty and a great summer choice. Also, the off menu (check the board at the hostess stand) mango coconut shrimp tacos were delicious. Spicy margarita with jalapeños and tajin was perfect with both. Spicy but not too (suggest taking the pepers out if you don't drink up right away...got hotter as it sat). You can always cool down with a bread pudding topped with ice cream. I know...you don't often have dessert, but you should have this one! read more

Great fresh food! I'm the only one that had seafood, don't let the name deceive you. The ribs were falling off the bone and amazing! Half a rack is a lot though. Good cocktail, wine and beer options too. Not crazy busy so great option for a Friday night when the spots next to campus are an hours wait. We'll be back! read more
