Flying Fish

While on a work trip in Fort Worth, the hotel front desk recommended Flying Fish, so we decided to give it a try. When you walk in, the smell is amazing--you can really catch the aroma of the seasoning, which had me excited for the meal. The service was prompt, and our food came out quickly. The restaurant itself was clean and well-maintained.Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to the initial impression. The gator nuggets were overcooked, dry, and lacked seasoning. The shrimp and catfish were fried well, but they also had no real flavor, which was disappointing. Overall, it was an okay experience, but I was hoping for more in terms of seasoning and taste.

Delicious seafood found here! TIP: When you enter, keep walking straight (through the glass-paned doors) then left to the counter to order/pay, get your coaster before picking a table, & your coaster will vibrate & flash when your order is ready to pickup. So many platter & poboy (aka sandwich) options. Fish fans will be happy (prepared grilled or fried) w/snapper, redfish, catfish, etc. Also, you can enjoy shrimp, oyster, gator, frog legs, hot chicken, & burgers. Fountain drinks, tea, lemonades (including adult versions w/Tito's), & beers (bottled, draft, or can).Decor is fish shake sheik ;-) Gingham-topped tables/booths. Fish & fishing gear everywhere. Special shout-out for the "Liars'' Wall" - photos of people who caught prize fish... love that!

My husband and I went for an early dinner. We walked in and immediately went to the counter and ordered our food and drinks. You get a buzzer to take to your table and it alerts you when your food is ready to be picked up. Everyone was pleasant and efficient. I ordered the whole fried tilapia and my husband got the catfish and shrimp basket. The fish was cooked perfectly, crunchy outside but still moist inside. Both were very good. French fries and spinach sides were also good. If you join their grub club you will get a coupon each month. We had a buy one entree get one free which was nice. We will be back.

First time we stopped by I was a bit surprised on the way you order and felt a little rushed, however, their process is fast and convenient! You place your order and then you find a seat and wait for your food! The food here is amazing! We stopped by on a Friday and went back the next day to try more food! They serve their beers in a very cold glass!!! The oysters were fresh and crawfish was spicy! So much flavor! The grilled redfish was tasty and served with vegetables and red beans and rice! All so good! The okra was also lightly salted and served with ranch! We will definitely be regulars here!

Flying fish is consistently an excellent meal! I typically get a fried shrimp po boy and today it did not disappoint! Service is quick and friendly no matter how long the line may be. This restaurant is packed on Fridays during Lent, but do not be discouraged by the line as it moves quickly. This is a very chill and casual spot with a variety of seafood plates

No pretentiousness here. Great down home food like your grandma would make if your grandma lived on the water. And your folks were fishermen. Fried pickles were excellent too!Order at the counter in a relaxed, family friendly atmosphere. Very reasonably priced too! Counter help were very friendly and helpful. We will be back

I don't understand what the big deal on this place. I got red snapper, it was dry and over cook BUT the veggies were grilled and outstanding!!Wife had the crab and shrimp not a lot can go wrong with tha. UNLESS the shrimp had no flavor boiled in tap water (that's my opinion probably not true). This place was jammed packed no parking, bathroom were marginal and small but this is a OLD place. Will I drive 30 min to come back, Well I think I save my greenhouse gases and eat locally

The service is super nice here. Food orders are made at the counter. The Nashville Chicken and the Caddo are both amazing! They have inside abs outside seating available in a family friendky atmosphere.

Decided to try this place out, and I was not disappointed. I was surprised that the place didn't smell like fish! The food was cooked to perfection. They have great music in the background. Great decorating, great service, and great food! I'll be back in the near future to enjoy more delicious food.

The jambalaya was really good. The catfish was crisp and not greasy. We will definitely come back.
