Cajun Fish Grill - McKinney (TX)

5 /5 Jacqueline Crider: Overall the food was very good. I actually really liked the cajun crawfish chowder but it was a little too spicy for me with a fair bit of black pepper. They were so kind and swapped it out for clam chowder and that was excellent! I’m very appreciative for the kindness. We got the Cajun pasta Alfredo and the catfish and shrimp basket. all of it was cooked super well. Very flavorful and tasty. Overall I’d recommend them simply on taste and service. Love to support local and this is a win.

4 /5 Punkie TheGreat: Found this place by a coupon that came in my mailbox. The interior is large with high ceilings, which is nice if you dont like to feel cramped in a small space. They also provide outdoor seating with a covered roof. The staff were friendly and welcoming. And there was no lines up on arrival. There is fresh lemonade and sweet/unsweetened tea on tap, as well as a soda fountain. I chose the sweet/unsweet tea. It was delicious! Normally when I get teas from tap, the water in it has a funky aftertaste. So Im really impressed! The pricing is a little more than, say an applebees or a chain sit down restaurant. However, my food was delicious, hot, and well cooked. The fish was flavorful, and well seasoned with the lemon and garlic butter provided. The rice and beans had great flavors. Smokey and almost faintly barbecued? And a little kick at the end. It came with a sprinkle of green onions on top. The zucchini was well cooked, not too slimy, just the right amount of crispness. The only bad things I could think of, was finding a couple of bones in the fish, and the pricing was a little more than I normally would go for. Overall I had a great meal, and recommend trying! If you are looking for a hole-in-the-wall with tasty homemade cape-bar style food, try here!

5 /5 Harold Palacio: We had the fried catfish, shrimp and clams. We got it spicy cause thats how we roll. The fried batter was light and crispy. The portion sizes were large. The spicy-ness was just right. Enough that we could taste it but not overpowering. Staff provided extra cups of Cajun sauce on request. (We like it spicy). The sides were great too. We got some banana pudding, on a whim, and it was great! With fresh banana slices, crispy vanilla wafers and whip cream on top. We had this order to go and it was completed in about 10 minutes and packed nicely. Staff was friendly and polite. Overall, we had a pleasant experience. We were attending an event at the football stadium down the street. This was close by and we had a craving for some seafood. Will definitely come back the next time were in the area.

5 /5 Jared Tye: Great place!! The catfish is crispy and has the perfect batter. They have fried okra and many other great things. Highly recommend!

2 /5 Josh Abadie: The gumbo was horrible. Clearly not freshly made, it tasted like cornstarch and sadness. Poboy was super tiny. Less than 6 inches, yet still cut in half. The serving size was stingy and the shrimp were frozen battered. I’ll give them an extra star since the bread was the correct type, and the oysters were well done.
