Seafood is fresh, tasty, and the environment is very lay back and comfy. You feel like your a family members' home. I've been in a couple of times when they have live music.
Pros: Not pricey

Four of us went to Fish on Fire on Friday night the 20th of February. The staff waiting tables were friendly and well informed. The food came hot and tasty. The fried catfish was the best I have had since my mama's cooking. The fried okra was wonderful. All in all we had a nice meal and took home left overs.
We will go back. I like that you now have someone to take orders at your table. We don't eat fried foods all that often but will at Fish on Fire, as nothing was greasy at all. Just very tasty.
The hush puppies are really something to try!
Pros: Food was good as was the staff.
Cons: Didn't find any cons....

This restaurant has very good food and service at reasonable prices. In the past my experience has been lukewarm as the management just didn't seem to care, but the last few times I've been there, the people were caring and attentive, (and the place was spotlessly clean). I had a miso ginger tuna for 12 bucks that was perfectly cooked and almost too pretty to eat, and my husband had grilled fish tacos that were excellent. Our total tab was under 25 dollars and that was with a couple of beers. When we left everyone thanked us and it really seemed genuine. I can't wait to come back to try the Mexican shrimp cocktail.
Pros: great food and service
Cons: awkward location...it's a little hard to find behind a big Exxon

I live right down the street from this place, and was a big fan of Top Cat, a fried catfish place ththat used to be here but is quite a haul now. So I went here, and initailly loved it, they had nice service, you ordered at the bar like fast food, then seated yourself and they brought it out to you. I don't need someone checking on me all the time anyhow. The atmosphere was kinda yuck because if it being an old Taco Bueno or something, but what the heck, I like fried catfish anywhere! The sides used to be good, and I went there quite often, even knew the girl at the counter's name!
That being said let me talk about how it is NOW. It started going down hill, the girl at the counter quit and the owner who was working the register yelled at me THE CUSTOMER for asking about her (not questioning, asking) The next time i went, the food was cold, and i couldn't find anyone to help me because the owner was handleing her business from a booth while drinking like a maniac! The last and FINAL time I went, the food was aweful, i actually had scales on my fish, and there what seemed to be this rude butt head talking to AT&T on speaker phone! Turns out it was the owner with her friends, drinking again and cussing out the phone co. My son picked up a four letter word and I never will go back despite the cupons at Kroger!
Pros: Decent margarita.
Cons: Everything but the margarita!

What a great salad! I am on a diet so a good ( reasonably priced) fresh salmon salad was just what my personal trainer ordered for me today :) The amount of salmon on it could have easily been upcharged by 4 or 5 more dollars. It was fresh salmon on a bed of fresh greens ,apple slices and avacado with a side of their homemade balasmic onion vingerette. Pretty tasty! The atmospere is like a aw shucks or any other crab shack/ fish shack you will find in Dallas, so dress casual and come hungry. They have beer and wine so you are sure to not go thirsty and rumor has it they have a pretty good live band a few times a week. A local favorite for good fish and live music and now mine. Give This fish house a try in dallas on Beltline road and preston. Locally owned and operated, so if it's something is not right you can tell the boss right then! Now THATS service! :)
Pros: Casual atmosphere and excellent fish!
Cons: easy to miss, it's in a old fast food like bldg, so don't pass it up

We drive down from McKinney often just to eat here, because the food is always outstanding.
Cooked just like we like it. The employees and management are courteous, always make sure
we are satisfied with our food and bubbling with personality. We couldn't find a better place
to go for fantastic fish, shrimp, shrimp cocktails, fried okra and the french fried sweet
potatoes. We tell everyone about Fish on Fire.

if you are looking for a bucket of beer, some great shrimp or fish and som entertainment on a budget, this is ti! I loved the band, the seafood, and they even have margaritas if oyu ask ( yes with tequila) . So check them out. It's the perfect alternative to the stuffy places you find in Dallas. They will treat you right :)
Pros: GREAT value. did you use the buy one get one coupon?
Cons: Very casual, so don't be surprised, that is the way it's suppose to be.

First off this is not a full service restaurant. The food is average at best and your local McDonald's is going to have a nicer atmosphere. They have beer and wine, that?s a plus, but you need you jump thought the private membership loophole, big negative. If you are looking for seafood there are much better choices elsewhere.
Pros: The seafood prices are good, live music is good
Cons: The place is a dump
