The food wasn't all really that great. The service was good, but the food didn't taste too well. The fries were not really good, so I don't think I'd be ever be coming back again. A lot of people like it, it just wasn't for me.

Went here for lunch. Had a stout and fish and chips. The food was better than the beer. First time I've had a stout with cinnamon in it; interesting but not my favorite.

I've eaten in this restaurant 4 times, 3 out of 4 was very good food, service and prices, for that reason I kept going back.
Last Thursday I had dinner with my son, this was the first time I was very disappointed in the food.
We had as appetizers oysters on a half shell, very fresh, and very good, and downhill from there.
I ordered fish tacos, I had this once before and really liked it, so I ordered again, there were 4 tacos totals. This time the fish was so overdone that all there was left was an sliver of an extra crispy thin fried shell and a trace of fish.,
One of the pieces was cooked correctly but there was a chunch missing as if someone in the kitchen had a snack before they served it to me, yuck!!
My son ordered a Cuban sandwich with a side of roasted Brussel sprouts, another disappointing dish. Brussels sprouts was very bland, no flavor at all. The Cuban sandwich was made with chicken and bacon, that's NOT a Cuban sandwich it should be called chicken and bacon club.
A Cuban sandwich is made with roasted pork, ham, Swiss cheese, pickles and mustard.
Lastly, the service felt rushed, maybe because we didn't order alcohol, the restaurant was not packed, it was Thursday evening.
I'm sure what happened if they had a new chef regardless it was a disappointing experience.
At some point I will try it again, but not anytime soon!!!

Excellent food and service!!

Sunday Brunch.
Fuquay-Varina location.
First time visit to any of the Vicious Fishes establishments.
Party of 2.
Server: Anna

We were informed of a brief 10 minute wait (unless we wanted to be seated at the bar)
and the wait was exactly 10 minutes.

Drink orders were taken and served immediately after being seated.

Food orders:
Ala carte: Eggs and waffle.
Pimiento & Bacon Omelette with toast.

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal.
And, Anna was GREAT!

We had a small request for the kitchen before ordering and she did a fantastic job making it happen.

We will definitely come back again.

I always sit at the bar when I go but sometimes you gotta wait a few minutes depending on the day/time.
The chef they have is AMAZING so the food never disappoints, the drinks are also really great!

Everything was just ok. Nice people but nothing to rave about. Out of a large amount of beers we wanted to try.

Really enjoyed our first visit to Vicious and we will definitely come back. Had the American Lager and Cuban club with homage chips and all were excellent. Evan was great waiter and ensured we were taken care of.

Wonderful restaurant! The food was delicious with a great selection. The beer was tasty, I had the Vienna Lager and it had great flavor for the beer style.

Food was really good! We didn't get a chance to have any cocktails, but they did have a nice selection to choose from. Would recommend this spot for sure!

Food was okay. Server had us waiting for the bill after we got done with our lunch. I had to look for him and tell him to give me the bill so we can leave the restaurant.
Thumbs down.
