The Green Gator Frisco

We went here on July 4th and enjoyed a live band at a place close to the center of the Frisco main street area where they shoot the fireworks. You can see the fireworks right outside this restaurant. As far as the food goes, it was very good with everything we ordered. A little salty for me. Could cut down a little bit. Maybe it's intentional so you can drink more beers. The atmosphere was lively with the band, which started playing around 9pm. We didn't have to wait to get a table. Parking was a nightmare on July 4th. We had to park two blocks away to dine here. We almost canceled our dining here because we circled around so long to find a parking spot and almost gave up. This is near a strip mall, and even those parking spots were taken. Just a heads up to come early, or if you don't mind walking while enjoying the whole night, then it's worth it to try this place. Highly recommended.

The Green Gator in Frisco is always a vibe! It’s a true sports bar, with TVs all around playing live games—perfect for sports lovers. On my most recent visit, I wanted something light and relaxing, and this spot delivered exactly that. I sat on the patio, and the breeze felt amazing—peaceful and exactly what I needed to clear my mind. I ordered the calamari, which was beautifully fried and so flavorful, and also had the chicken pasta, which was equally tasty. Great food and atmosphere all around. Now let’s talk about the staff—Hector was phenomenal, even though he’s a Cowboys fan (I’ll forgive him for that one day 😂). My waiter, Ryan, was prompt, kind, and accommodating, despite clearly being busy. He made sure I had everything I needed, so of course, I tipped him well! The hostess, Stacy, was also sweet and welcoming. Honestly, those genuine interactions meant the world to me, especially as I’ve been dealing with a new and overwhelming life change. This place is more than just a bar—it’s comforting, it’s friendly, and it’s fun, especially if you’re a Saints fan (most of the staff are, which I love). So come football season? You’ll definitely find me here. I even left a review from my other page because they’re just that good. Highly recommend!

Bartender with man bun is the most delightful and loveliest person I’ve ever met! Very accommodating and will always go out of his way to change tvs to games for people so they can see their favorite teams. Professional and quick behind the bar as well. Waitstaff is great as well! Will definitely be back here again and again. I have been to this place multiple times and have been impressed with the food, drinks, and service every time!

Food was not it. My friends and I stopped by for lunch and we were disappointed. I got some crab cakes. There were no crabs in those crab cakes. It was all breading. If you dare to brave it, don’t order the bang bang shrimp either. I I do not recommend.

The chicken and sausage was my favorite of all my choices. The shrimp was very good. They are bigger than I expected, and the cocktail sauce took it to the next level. The jambalaya was just ok.

What an absolute experience thanks to an incredible Shawn.Not only does he craft the most excellent drinks– his signature cocktails are pure magic. His customer service is hands-down the greatest I've ever seen. He remembered my friends from a previous visit, and made sure everyone at the bar felt welcome and valued. If you're looking for top-notch drinks and genuine hospitality, this is the spot. Highly recommend – I'll be back soon! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Firstly, the waiter Sean was amazing! I just know a Louisiana native is in the kitchen. The food was got dang good. The consistency of the sauce in the shrimp and chicken pasta was perfect. This was my first time in a long time eating a meal that fulfilling. I would recommend cutting back on the grease a little though. After it sat in the fridge for a few hours, the grease began to rise and seeped throughout. Otherwise, I HIGHLY recommend!

A little taste of New Orleans. Top notch service! The food is delicious and indicative of the Big Easy. Very nice place. We'll make this one of our regular spots.
