One reviewer wrote, "This was our first time to eat here and the staff is friendly and helpful. They suggested items from the menu. My fiance wanted me to try the oysters so we got them on a half shell and they were amazing! Of course, we tried each other's meals and everything was amazing! All items were seasoned well and the in-house made sauce was the perfect compliment to the dishes! Yes, it's a little pricey but well worth the money. We will definitely be back!"

Another customer wrote, "My family’s favorite spot to get some amazing seafood from. The crawfish is our favorite. It’s always seasoned perfectly and tastes delicious. There is never a wait, the establishment is always clean including the bathrooms, the prices are decent compared to others in the area. Definitely check this place out."

However, there have been a few negative reviews, such as one from a customer who said, "We used to love this place. However, tonight was a huge disappointment. Starting with my call in order- Google hours say you close at 9:30. I called at 8:30 & the Hispanic man who took my order was very impatient & basically rude. Said they close at 9:00, almost like he wasn’t even going to take my order at all! Long story short I’m home with our food now & even more upset. I knew I smelled gumbo in my back seat!! For some reason he decided to pack ALL our condiments, crackers, AND TWO BOWLS OF GUMBO in a tiny PAPER SACK! It was so heavy & packed tight the gumbo lids smashed open, leaving over half our gumbo poured alllll inside the OTHER sack that he had everything else packed in! So we also now have soggy, pathetic poor boys (that have only a couple pieces of shrimp in each). Sad to see a once amazing place go downhill like this. We will not be back again. Tonight was nothing but sheer LAZINESS!!! Do better, Flying Fish!! Shame on you!!"

Overall, Flying Fish is a great spot for seafood lovers in the Garland area. With its laid-back atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious Cajun-inspired dishes, it's definitely worth checking out.
