We eat there today. It is not like it used to be. Now they charge for extra slaw and corn bread. With four people at our table that wasn’t enough. We will not be going back again. We would carry 20-25 people from our church at times. Now they don’t want to go back. it’s to expensive and you charge for every thing.

The shrimp were a bit overdone and not very firm. Probably not going back to the Anniston location.

Pretty good food, portions a bit smaller than I’m used to. I asked for pickles meaning just regular side of pickles and they brought an order of fried pickles…. I usually dont like fried pickles but these were great, easily the best I’ve had.

Yalls prices have went through the roof well beyond the inflation excuse
So. I was on the fence about how to rate this location, coming from the east coast. I am in the area for training and this restaurant came highly recommended. As a disclaimer, I do not eat Catfish so unfortunately I cannot review the dish in which they are known for. Sorry! Parking was not an issue. They open at 5pm during the week and I arrived around 6. I was seated immediately. My server, Rebekah was great, despite having two large parties in addition to me. I ordered the fried crawfish and shrimp scampi combo with the spicy northern beans. The crawfish was delicious except they were served with cocktail sauce as opposed to a remoulade, which would’ve been a better choice. The beans were flavored well but too dry so it was difficult to finish. The shrimp were delicious, although they weren't really flavored like a scampi. But they were GOOD. The cornbread was great. It has actual corn and jalapeño, although it did not come with butter. I had to ask for it. When I was finished, I had to pay at the register. The same host who sat me, also checked me out. He was a bit distracted as he was when I first arrived. He used pleasant language but he also sat my credit card on the counter, as well as my receipt, despite the fact that I gave him everything in hand. I do feel that’s a bit rude. Over all, it was an okay experience.
At 5pm, we arrived at the restaurant and were promptly seated. Our food order was placed around 5:15, and although the restaurant was busy, we waited patiently for our meal to be served. However, I observed that four nearby tables, which arrived around 6pm, received their food before us. We brought this to the attention of our server. After waiting for 1 hour and 15 minutes, our food had not arrived, and our server failed to check on our table or replenish our beverages. I was displeased and disappointed with the poor service provided by our waiter and the duty manager, who failed to handle the situation effectively. Consequently, we will not return to this restaurant and cannot recommend it.

Great experience! The place was a bit busy but we were still able to get a table as soon as we walked in. The service is outstanding! The free appetizer options were really good. The food was delicious. I think some of the entrée options could've been larger servings. We will definitely be back again.

As a service technician, I see a ton of different kitchens. All of these locations have stellar kitchens, some of the cleanest I've ever seen!!! The food is fresh and always delicious 😋. I highly recommend trying these folks out!!!

Awesome food, service is spectacular, but do NOT listen to Google maps, they are not open for lunch on Saturdays. They open at 3pm on Saturdays. Just an FYI and not the restaurant's fault, I guess
