Fried food nirvana!! The food is generally pretty good. You can’t go wrong with the fried shrimp and fish plate.
Fried Fish 8/10 - good seasoning, not over cooked. I got the 4 piece with 2 spicy and 2 regular. The spice wasn’t really spicy at all, just a very mild kick. The pieces are decent size too.
Jumbo Fried Shrimp 8/10 - it comes with 3 large butterflied shrimp. Same as the fish, the seasoning and crust were very good. Very generous portions.
Hush Puppies 9/10 - these bad boys appear to be like chips and salsa. They are brought to the table with a standard homemade tartar sauce as well as a green, slightly spicy homemade tartar sauce. They are kind of addictive. They are like fingerling hush puppies?
Service 7/10 - Antonia was our server, and she did a good job being attentive.
Atmosphere 6/10 - nothing fancy, just a typical mom and pop seafood restaurant. It was clean with ample seating.
This place has been around for many years, and judging by the crowd today, will be for many more to come. Go check it out!
My husband and I had a date for lunch and we went to Catfish Parlor. The hush puppies were delicious and the rest of the food was as well. I highly recommend this place and we will be back again. The service was great.
Had a great evening at Catfish Parlour South. Friendly staff, fine atmosphere, clean restrooms. There were a couple folks playing mellow country music, they were pretty good. Food is delicious and prices are good. Shrimp cocktail was perfect. The Catfish tastes great, I had the spicy version. Sides tasted great as well (i had hush puppies sticks, fried okra, mac n` cheese and broccoli, but they have several other options). Such a cool place if you wanna get some Comfort Food.
