The beans and hush puppies are very delicious. I ordered the three piece catfish meal because I was really hungry when I got there. I got so full on the beans and hush puppies that I had trouble eating all three pieces of fish. It is located in a pretty spot too, with good views of a pond.
The locals need to petition Guy F of Diners, Driver Ins and Dives fame, to get this place in the show. Not the hours: Wed-Sun, 4-8 and that's it. Crowded. Servers work their tails off.
It was highly recommended by the hotel, and they know why it's a local favorite. Just be warned, they also agree there is a price to be paid that is best summed up by the sign over the register: "It ain't food if it ain't fried." If your digestive system can take it, the food is delicious. Not everyone can take it, so I feel obligated. I can, but with some complaining inside.
It was the first time I ever had fried green tomatoes. Hear about them, saw them on DDD, no place I've lived has them (both coasts including rural areas, mid Atlantic). So that, as a side dish, was a treat.
The signature catfish was wonderful. It's a bigger experience than that, though.
The place to go in the lakes area for catfish. Call ahead and make reservations or expect a wait. Eclectic decor that makes it feel even more crowded because of stuff everywhere bothered me a bit but not a big deal. Food is hot and fresh. Had catfish, white beans, slaw, hushpuppies and fries. They bring you plenty of everything and make sure to try their homemade chow chow on the white beans.
This place has great catfish and excellent sides to go with your meal. My family and I live in the area and love Catfish kitchen, if you leave this place hungry it's your own fault! Great job guy's on countless years of awesome food and service!
Absolutely to die for! The food was amazing with fantastic service. The scenery and look of the entire place was cozy and made me feel very at home. After you enjoy your food you can give some of your leftovers to the variety of animals on the lake that surrounds the restaurant. You'll see tons of turtles, small fish, huge catfish, and geese. Where I sat there was a rainbow in my window and you could see the geese eating. 10/10 would definitely recommend this fantastic restaurant.
