Flying Fish, Seafood restaurant in Fort Worth, United States.
Flying Fish is a seafood restaurant in Fort Worth, Texas, focused on fried fish and shellfish dishes prepared in the Southern American style. The menu covers catfish, shrimp, oysters, crab, and sandwiches, all served in a counter-order, casual setting.
Flying Fish was founded to bring simple, traditional Southern seafood cooking to a no-frills setting in Texas. The concept proved popular enough that new locations opened in other cities across several states over time.
Flying Fish serves fried seafood and catfish dishes that have been part of everyday cooking in Texas and the American South for generations. Guests order at a counter, find their own seat, and eat in a relaxed setting without table service.
No reservation is needed, so you can walk in at any point during service hours. The place tends to fill up around lunchtime and in the early evening, so arriving slightly before or after those windows will make things easier.
The restaurant runs a loyalty program where regular customers earn a free meal after a set number of visits, a perk that many first-time visitors do not know about. Asking about it at the counter on your first visit is enough to get enrolled.
