I'm so excited to have found Wild Prawn! The food was amazing, the service attentive and efficient, and the prices quite reasonable for excellent quality of dishes served. I'll be back!

The prawns were excellent. My husband had the stuffed red fish which was good, but took a long time to be served. Apparently they need more help. Atmosphere was just ok. We both thought it was a little too pricey!

I came in with my daughter for the first time after looking for houses to buy in Rockport. It’s the first “real” restaurant I wanted to try here. We ordered the crab cakes which were fabulous. My daughter ordered the vegetarian special and I ordered the redfish. The crab cakes came out right away but we ended up waiting over an hour for our entrees. The waitress came to us after 45 minutes telling me the redfish took a while. BUT Everyone who ordered with us or after us was done eating and the restaurant was cleared out including a 6-8 top that sat after us, it was clear we were forgotten. I asked for the food to go and it was ready another 10 minutes later before we got it. We ate in our hotel room which honestly wasn’t a big deal because I was tired of sitting there but the redfish was so dry I Couldn’t eat it. I ended up throwing it away. I assume they cooked it wrong since they had to rush. That was the breaking point for me. My daughter loved her pasta and we enjoyed the crab cakes, I however have a bad taste in my mouth from being forgotten( my drink sat empty too) that we won’t be back. I reached out to the owner before posting this and was AGAIN ignored. Rockport is such a small town, I’m surprised they don’t care about the service their customers receive.

Wife and I were visiting Rockport and we decided to try Wild Prawn. We ordered the Stuffed Redfish and Fried Mahi Mahi. Both dishes came out ~35 min later and we were impressed by the quality and taste. For dessert we shared the deconstructed key lime pie, which was excellent. The owner, Chris, was friendly and chatted with us. Overall we enjoyed the food and will definitely come back the next time we are in Rockport.

Excellent service with fantastic food. Calm quiet atmosphere. Was a little concerned when the food was brought out that it wasn't what I ordered. I was very wrong! Some of the best redfish I have ever eaten! I would have licked the plate, but didn't want to embarrass my husband! Would give more than 5 stars for the food if possible!!

Our second time here. Excellent t service. Food is outstanding. First time we had their stuffed flounder, crab cakes, key lime pie and crème brûlée. This time we had rib eye and tenderloin. Excellent! The staff is friendly, service was great and the ambiance is more upscale for a special occasion. Oh and their martini's are yummy! Don't let the strip center fool you. Definitely try them out. We will be back.

The food is way over priced and over cooked!!! Green beans were so had to chew. fish and shrimp were over cooked to the point of almost being dried. You can find a far better place to eat!!!!! Gave it one start just so that I could post this!
