Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Phenomenal. I thought I was walking into a Klan meeting but the older lady was nice and the food was excellent. Best frog legs ever!"
"Best catfish in the whole world to me and my hubby Tom. We used to go every Saturday night. My eye surgeries have been the reason. It's family owned and makes everyone that comes there feel like family too. Everything's good. Shrimp, Oysters, and the whole menu is Awesomeness in your Mouth."
"Best fish I have ever eaten! Staff is exceptionally friendly and go out of their way to accommodate you. The trimmings, especially the cole slaw and the turnip greens were top notch."
"Best catfish, Cole slaw, greens, hushpuppies and sweet tea you can ask for in the whole state of Mississippi and all the way down to new orleans! They have been open for 22 years! Family owned business built with love!!"
"My family and I Have been going here for years..Best Fish house ever ,All The Food Is Awesome ,it's so good and the service is Always A1 with us, even when it's super busy ..I Love this Place , We want to go now but it's closed !!!"
"I happened upon this family restaurant on my way back from a golf outing. I was hungry and still nearly an hour from home. I made a U-turn, pulled into the gravel parking lot, and went inside. I seated myself and listened to country folks chatting about the lack of rain, ponds drying out, crops failing. Within just a few minutes of ordering, my 3-piece catfish filet dinner came out. Sides included cole slaw, greens, hush puppies, and just the right amount of french fries. The food was great! I'm not a big fan of greens, but I've got to say, these were awesome! Friendly staff; delicious food; down home atmosphere. One could not ask for more! I'll be back for sure!"
"Great staff (waitress had worked there since she was 10) and good food. I did not get the fish nor the frog legs but everyone else enjoyed them. I was treated with kind service. Meal was hot shrimp, oysters, hush puppies, greens and fries, as well as cole slaw and onion slices......what a meal"
"We were invited to a birthday party for a friend at Family Fish House. First time I ever ate there. Pretty dang good for me. I had the whole catfish plate and it was pretty good with the greens (a little too sweet) and slaw, and fixins'. Normal 'fish-house' fare. My wife had the fried shrimp and it was kinda overdone and didn't 'sit' well with her. Overall, a fine establishment."
