Best bass fish I ever had! I wish I had know before how tasty bass is. Location is busy but the food taste great. We are definitely coming back soon. I should mention that I have little allergy to gluten and they kindly fry my fish in corn meal there is a guy named Sergio that goes above and beyond to satisfy the customers always with a happy face as a complement. I used to go to aw shucks before but ever since I found this place I have no need to go another places for tasty and delicious seafood. Last picture is of mahi mahi with fries and vegetables.

I started eating the food from this small local chain at a location nearer to my house that closed. As I understand it, this is the main location. Excellent fried catfish, shrimp, and oysters! Good steak fries, but I prefer their onion rings. They also have very good seafood gumbo! My favorite oder is a bowl of the gumbo and the sampler platter with onion rings with a diet coke.

Tried the gumbo and the catfish basket with shrimp. The gumbo was okay, but it could definitely be better. The catfish basket with shrimp, though, was delicious—crispy, well-seasoned, and definitely the highlight of the meal. Overall a solid spot, especially for the fried seafood.

Food was great!! Favorite was the boiled crab legs. The fried items could have used a bit more spice but overall great experience and pretty good prices!

I randomly stumbled upon this restaurant while in Plano. It was very crowded, so I had high expectations. I ordered the catfish special. I cannot remember if it was a lunch or daily special, but it came with rice and beans. All of the food was hot and fresh. My only complaint is that everything was lacking in seasoning.

Your catfish expert is back at it again. I’ve been spending some time in the Plano area lately, so I’m trying the businesses on that side of town. I tried the Fish Shack and ordered my traditional fried catfish with okra and puppies. The fish was fried perfectly. The fillets were a little on the thin side. Okra was also fried perfectly. The seasoning was minimal at best. From other posts, I believe that is intentional as they offer many sauces, including a bar, to make your own horseradish cocktail along with hot sauces and tartar. I would have liked some spice added, but I get not all are the same. Overall the staff was great. Neat place with some history the decor inside was different as it seems there is a history of stapling dollar bills to the wall making a great wallpaper. Overall, it’s a solid place. Good food with some options. Fish fillets could be larger and with some spice. Price was on point as lunch was under $20.00

Great food, but ambiance could be improved
The fish shank was absolutely delicious—crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and seasoned to perfection. The sides were fresh and flavorful, making the meal very satisfying. The quality of the food definitely stands out.
However, the ambiance left something to be desired. The seating was a bit cramped, and the overall decor felt outdated. The noise level was also quite high, which made it hard to fully enjoy the dining experience.
If you’re here for the food, you won’t be disappointed, but a more comfortable and inviting atmosphere would elevate the overall experience.

I really hate to give a 5-star review because this place seems like a well kept secret, but it’s always busy. The fried catfish is amazing every time. It’s a counter order establishmenbt and I usually order 1 or 2 filets, fries, and a beer. Price for quality is superb. I’ve never been disappointed.

Bf and I came here for a date night as he has been here before and highly recommended it.
I immediately noticed how crowded it was. Definitely a neighborhood local favorite on a Friday night, which is always a promising sign.
Menu was diverse and seemed overall quite affordable. You could get many kinds of seafood cooked in practically any way you could imagine with large portion sizes.
Bf got a plate with catfish and butterfly shrimp and I got a plate with cod. We split a side plate of fried okra. The okra was above average I would say, and we finished our plate of it. The fries were alright but nothing special, and I’d say the seafood was great. I enjoyed the shrimp I tried off of my bf’s plate more than the cod, but it was all cooked well and portioned generously. The sauce it came with was tangy and paired well with the seafood. Additionally, the coke I was given was absolutely massive and easily 3x what you would get for the same price elsewhere.
I’d for sure recommend this place. Just be aware that it’s on the small side and parking/tables are limited!
