A Dallas staple for 20 plus years. If you give this place less than 5 stars you should have your privileges revoked. If this place wasn’t in Deep Ellum it would be packed every night.

Fun place, eclectic decor all over. Relaxed, casual, good for groups. Large menu, not just your typical bar food. Food was decent. I tried the cornmeal crusted catfish which was pretty good, tater tots with it were good. Decent wings on the apps menu. The steak fingers not so good – just a weird dish but my partner was curious to try them. The skinny margarita (aka doesn’t have all the simple syrup or sweet and sour mix) was actually quite good, enjoyed that. Not necessarily a place I would be craving to come back for the food but I heard their catering food is great but I would come back for the atmosphere or if you’re with people who are picky eaters and prefer something simple.

Absolutely love this place! One of my all time favorite burgers & the best fried pickles. Everything on their menu is always delicious & they offer pretty much any type of food you’d be looking for! I love the character & hospitality of their staff. I wish I would have come here sooner, but am so glad I’ve found such a gem! Don’t miss out on this place!!

Love this place. Had a great experience here. Customer service A+. Food was good – chicken fried steak strips, chicken fried tuna, lasagna- try those first. Huge beer selection. New local family favorite.

What a fun place. My wife and I were in Dallas and decided to go out to Deep Ellum. We came across the Dancing Marlin. The atmosphere is cozy and the decorations are very eclectic. Apparently they are known for their seafood. I had the Chicken Fried Tuna and my my wife had the Tuna Tacos. At first I was a little leary about fried tuna steak. Wow! It was great. I was concerned that it would be over cooked and dried out. Thus was not the case. The steak was crispy on the outside and moist and pink in the middle. Great! The fish Tacos were also very tasty. The fish in the Tacos were also very moist and cooked perfectly. This is a fun place to visit.

This was great food. I actually had a take out. I love fried fish and fried mushrooms. I ate so many mushrooms that I didn’t have room in my tummy for the fish. I put it aside until the next day. It still tasted fresh cook.

An anchor of Deep Ellum for decades, St. Pete’s offers great value and a full kitchen that takes bar food up a notch. Service is always fast and friendly. The best protein by far is the sushi-grade tuna steak, making a sandwich or salad with house Greek vinaigrette simply divine. But you can’t go wrong with a burger, pasta, or pizza, and fried appetizers or sides. A great place to watch a game or enjoy drinks. The interior is dark wood with most every surface covered with fishing memorabilia and beer signs. The patio is bright and sunny with a great view of pedestrian life on Commerce.
