Flying Fish offers a variety of fish dishes, beer, and margaritas across from the Peabody Hotel in Downtown Memphis.

Good Morning!
If you're after a lighter lunch today; freshly grilled salmon on a bed of cucumber, avocado, carrots, tomato and mixed greens all make a truly delicious salad.
Douse with lemon and the house dressing OR grab some of our ultra-creamy ranch.

I said 'light', didnt I? 🤔 Ranch is so light-colored, it counts!

Craving protein? With our combo baskets, you can load up on shrimp, catfish, chicken, plus a pile of fries with house-made hushpuppies.
Gotta feed those muscles!💪🐟

How to make our Tilapia Tacos:

Step 1) Season and grill some tilapia 'till the edges are crispy and the insides are flaky and falling apart.
Step 2) ? (It's a secret)
Step 3) Pile high with coleslaw and pico de gallo
Step 4) Enjoy

And hey, if going home to grill your own fish doesn't sound realistic right now, you can always swing by and we'll make it for you 😏

For those extra-frustrating days, when you want to choose violence: Consider the Snow Crab & Boiled Shrimp platter.

Crack, crunch, rip, and gnaw your way through their shells to access delicious crab and shrimp meat. Tear apart some sweetcorn on the cob. You don't have to use a fork - just eat a potato like it's an apple.

Make it snappy for an extra kick, or drown it in hot butter as you tear into a big 'ol plate of satisfaction.

09/19/2024

We're the Flying Fish, of COURSE our fried catfish is exceptional.
It'd be weird to serve southern-style seafood and NOT have a kick-ass catfish dish or three.

09/17/2024

Listen, I don't mean to break the fourth wall here, but sorting through food photos every day is driving me insane. This sandwich is so good, and this picture looks delicious, but I can't eat it every single day and that is a travesty.
A tragedy, even.

The Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich comes with a MASSIVE chicken breast, and there's TWO fillets on the Catfish version.
You want an extra-hearty meal? You got it.
You want an explosion of flavor that involves pickles, sweet-and-spicy sauce and fresh coleslaw? You GOT it. The sauce is insane. The combination of textures is incredible. It's everything I ever wanted.

If you haven't tried the new sandwich yet, you're seriously missing out.
You won't be disappointed.

We'd compare it to your grandma's if those weren't fightin' words. So instead, we'll say:
The pie's real good, and we're proud of it.
You should try it sometime.💚

Pile it high, and you've got a true beauty~
Our Caddo plate has been featured as a Southern Favorite at Flying Fish for years now.
Piled high with grilled shrimp, tilapia, pico de gallo and a hearty helping of rice just dripping with our special sauce.

If you've never tried the Caddo Plate, this is your sign! Your beacon and calling! 🙌

What do you get when you stuff a big margarita glass full of 12 chilled shrimp, house-made Mexican cocktail sauce, diced tomatoes & onions, and topped with lime, avocado slices and cilantro?
We call it the Mexican Cocktail.
It's DELICIOUS, served with warm tortilla chips to scoop with.

We may give some side-eye if you use a straw
It's just not that kind of cocktail. 👀

09/12/2024

Some say it tastes like a cross between pork & shrimp.
We say; if it tries to bite, you gotta bite back! 🐊
Our Gator Nuggets have a seasoned, crispy-fried outside, with juicy alligator meat on the inside.

Well, it turns out these sandwiches were what the people craved!

Summer body this, beach body that- Some of us are very proud of our Dad Bod!
Shoulders built by hoisting little gremlins, Legs by stooping to check for monsters under beds, and every extra pound is evidence of good meals eaten together.

We worked hard to get into this shape, thank you.
Happy back-to-school season, dads 🫡 they really do grow like weeds.

What a googly-eyed menace.
Our Veracruz-style red snapper is certainly an impressive plate at the table (goofy eyes nowithstanding) but he's even tastier to devour.
