Celebrate Mom with a Meal at Tricky Fish

Mother’s Day is fast approaching – what did you get mom this year?

If you aren’t sure, then we’ve got ideas! How about treating mom to a meal at Tricky Fish? Last year, US Foods surveyed moms about what they wanted for Mother’s Day, and a top gift idea was food or drink, with the majority of moms interested in their family eating out or getting takeout on Mother’s Day. See, mom’s want to enjoy the great food at Tricky Fish this Mother’s Day!

Delicious Offerings for Mom

Mother’s Day is a great opportunity to treat mom to the incredible dishes here at Tricky Fish. There is a little something for everyone. We have salads, Southern-style entrees, comfort food, seafood, pasta, and more. Here are 5 dishes we think mom would love to sink her teeth into on Mother’s Day:

Shrimp Linguine

Rich Sherry Bourbon Cream Sauce, anyone? Our linguine is coated in this silky sauce, then tossed with shrimp and roasted tomatoes. Mom is sure to love it – and you will too! Pasta is an excellent choice for Mother’s Day and good restaurants near me know it. 

Fried Platters

Does mom love fresh seafood? Then she will love our fried platters! Choose between fried catfish, fried oysters, or fried shrimp. Each basket of fried goodness is complete with tartar sauce, cocktail sauce, French fries, and slaw. You can order just one protein, two, or all three for a little variety.

Redfish with Lemon Butter Sauce

Fresh seafood is a signature offering here at Tricky Fish and one of the reasons we are one of the good restaurants near me in Richardson and Fort Worth. The Redfish with Lemon Butter Sauce is one of those special dishes you simply can’t get anywhere. The tangy and rich sauce is the perfect complement to the fish, and it comes with orzo pilaf and vegetables on the side. Healthy, satisfying, and delicious.

Low Country Cobb Salad

Does mom love salads? Then steer her toward the Low Country Cobb! This unique salad takes a traditional Cobb salad and gives it a Tricky Fish twist. The salad is complete with okra, banana peppers, egg, tomato, blue cheese, bacon, and a honey mustard vinaigrette. Get grilled chicken or shrimp on top to make it a complete meal. Yum! 

Banana Pudding

Finish off the meal with a decadent, yet simple, dessert like our Bread Pudding. We use mascarpone for creaminess, ‘Nilla wafers, and drizzle it all in a dark rum sauce.

5 Dishes You and Your Friends Must Try!

Ever feel like you just need to get out and meet some friends for a great lunch date or dinner?

When you do go out, it can get easy to get in a rut with your order. You know you love enchiladas, so you always order enchiladas. At Tricky Fish, we have a large menu with lots of great dishes – from seafood, to Southern comfort food, to Cajun food, to gourmet scratch kitchen dishes, and more. 

This week we encourage you to grab some friends and try something you haven’t tried before! Here are 5 of our most popular dishes that you are sure to love from one of the good restaurants near me, Tricky Fish:

The Darn Good Salad

When it comes to salads, the Darn Good Salad, or D.G.S. for short, is pretty tasty. You will love the spiced pecans, cranberries, onions, bleu cheese, and croutons that add the perfect balance of sweet and savory to a bed of greens. Top it all off with Balsamic Vinaigrette and it’s sure to be a winner if you are looking for salad! You can also add a protein like chicken, shrimp, or salmon to any of our salads.

Fish & Chips

This is our twist on the classic from across the pond. We use an Abita beer batter to batter the white fish, cooking until it’s nice and crispy on the outside – warm and flaky on the inside. Fries, slaw, and our homemade remoulade are served on the side. This dish is great for lunch or dinner with your favorite cocktail, but it’s hard to find fish and chips and the good restaurants near me in Richardson.

Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich

If you want to kick it up a notch, then the Nashville Hot is where it’s at! The traditional chicken sandwich gets a facelift with spicy fried chicken breast and a vinegar slaw on a soft bun. Good eating!

French Toast Sundae

Leave room for dessert! The French Toast Sundae is out of this world good! It starts with bread pudding, then we layer on vanilla ice cream and a peach and bourbon sauce. It’s so good you may not want to share with anyone else!

The Tricky Fish

We’d be amiss if we didn’t point out our signature dish. If you haven’t tried this yet, then it’s time. Your choice of fresh fish is cooked to perfection then layered with crawfish etouffee and dirty rice. It’s a Cajun’s dream!! Simple, southern, and absolutely delicious.

Nashville Hot Chicken

We hate to brag, but we’re pretty sure our Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich puts the fast food counterparts to shame! You’ll love the fiery breaded chicken breast, paired perfectly with vinegar slaw and lettuce to balance the flavor. 

Kitchen Sink Gumbo

While technically a starter, our Kitchen Sink Gumbo makes a wonderful light lunch, or pair it with a salad for a balanced and healthy meal all on its own! Guests at our good restaurants near me love this spicy Cajun favorite, loaded with Andouille sausage, chicken, fish, shrimp, and rice. Want to make it even better? Pair it with a craft beer on tap! (Yes, Tricky Fish is known for our amazing craft beer selection so don’t miss it!)

Crawfish Etouffee

Cajun is at our roots. Tricky Fish was created with a simple, Southern style, drawing much of our cuisine from the flavors of the Gulf coast. Nothing quite says Southern, down home cookin’ like a big bowl of Crawfish Etouffee! Ours is served with dirty rice and packs the perfect Cajun punch.

The Tricky Fish

Were you interested in that Crawfish Etouffee but want even more Cajun goodness? Why not try the Tricky Fish! It’s our signature fresh fish, served with the Cajun Crawfish Etouffee and delicious dirty rice. We pride ourselves on offering the freshest seafood in Richardson, and our Tricky Fish is no exception! 

Breakfast Hash & Eggs

Did we mention that we also offer brunch at Tricky Fish? We do! You’ll love the mild heat of our Breakfast Hash & Eggs, with a hash made up with Andouille sausage, peppers, and potatoes. Top that hash with 2 fried eggs – cooked the way you like! – and cheese….it’s pretty darn delicious. 

Grilled Thai Wings

While not your typical “hot” dish, our Grilled Thai Wings have their own version of heat. That heat is perfectly balanced with a peanut ginger slaw, making this appetizer a refreshing twist on the classic buffalo wings.
