“ Love coming here so de moving in the area. Danielle is the nicest funniest most welcoming person who happens to be the manager I’ve ever met! Each time we walk in the whole staff is so friendly and welcoming that I feel so happy to walk in because they all make me feel like I’m apart of the crew and family. There happy hour if 2 Rita’s Monday along with happy hour bites are the best! They have a crab bisque right now that is so so good and they make it daily! Highly recommend in these cooler months, I highly suggest this location. We’ve brought new friends each time for a catch up and Rita and each time they themselves are blown away by the hospitality and food. Don’t pass on this gem of lower Greenville! ”
“ Labor Day is supposed to be a holiday for most businesses, but somehow, many companies still have people working. The silver lining? Scoring a 5 Margarita slushie on a weekday! Pair that with some fresh seafood, and it’s a total win. So good and so satisfying! ”
“ Been coming to this location for years! Have also been to the one in Lewisville they are both great . The service is great you order inside and they bring the food to the table , and someone is constantly coming by asking if you need anything . They make the best micheladas! Taste as it should . One of our favorite is the cocktail Shrimp also the ceviche I highly recommend those 2 items . I’ve also had the gumbo it’s good and other times I’ve had the baskets combos those are pretty good deals too. My kids love the shrimp boil for them is perfect because it’s not spicy and not to many seasonings I personally don’t like it (acceptable it’s not everyones cup of tea , Don’t expect it to be with a lot of seasonings or sauces that’s not the case for this restaurant) But my boys do enjoy it they are (10,8 years ) that’s what they always order . Also the caldo is super delicious. ”
“ We drove an hour from Fort Worth to visit. The service was great, and so was the food and cleanliness of the establishment. The young man at the counter suggested a mango chamoy margarita drink that was absolutely delicious! It's hard to find quality seafood and oyster bar in FW with good drinks and affordable prices, so I will definitely be back to visit. ”
“ Why haven't I known about this place?! Went on a weekday night so minimal crowd but definitely some people traffic. You can dine in or take out. Seating is outside patio, not much seating inside but there is a protective barrier that can be lowered outside. The night was lovely with a little breeze. Everything was so good! Wanted to get a feel for the place so we tried several dishes. Great happy hour deals on food and drinks. Service was fast and the food taste fresh. Definitely found a new spot!!! ”
“ Came here in July and completely forgot to post my review after finding the pictures in my camera roll. I remember how good the catfish was. It was very well seasoned. The restaurant itself has a great aesthetic. It gives very much seafood restaurant on the side of the beach. Service staff were nice as well. ”
“ Absolutely love their happy hour specials. Their calamari, fried shrimp, margaritas, and shrimp cocktail are so good! Only thing I was uneasy of were the oysters. I felt their presentation didn’t seem so clean which made me question eating them but my partner said it was okay. Luckily we didn’t get sick. You can see the murkiness on the edge of the oyster shell in the picture. ”
“ The food here is even better than I remember. The snow crab legs were sensational. I also had a cup of the clam chowder and it was great! Hush puppies are so good! I think they are made with cornbread mix! So they are not dry and gooey in the middle! The service is friendly and FAST! Best seafood in Dallas! ”
