I heard this place is legendary in Little Rock so I went and got why. They serve catfish and buffalo fish ribs that feel like crunchy treasures from Southern history. This diner has serious roots—civil rights leaders used to meet here, and it has that badge of honor from the James Beard people.

I had a plate of catfish hush puppies and coleslaw sat quietly and felt like I was part of something much bigger than fish and grease. Price was modest mood was deep food was memorable.

I love this place! I owned the catfish steaks. They were soft and meaty, with just the right amount of crunch. Those were the best hushpuppies I've ever owned. I should try to order a basket of those the next time. The fries were mushy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. The hospitality was outstanding. This is my favorite location for catfishing in LR. There is nothing better. For a while.

I adore this location! The catfish steaks were mine. They had the ideal crunch and were meaty and soft. The greatest hushpuppies I've ever had were those. Next time, I should try to order a basket of those. The fries had a crispy exterior and a soft interior. The level of hospitality was amazing. My favorite spot in LR for catfishing is this one. Nothing is superior. For a period.

I really miss the fish at Lassis In . Simple menu but so tasty. I wish Mr. Washington the best. It was a Little Rock icon to those who went there on a regular basis. I had hoped he would find someone to take over if he couldn’t continue. Tastiest fried fish in town. Haven’t found anywhere else that compares.

The employees are friendly and courteous. The catfish is exceptional. The history and ambiance are what is important. The beer is cold and the blues jukebox is hot. The neighborhood is sketchy but we have never had nor seen any problems.

Mean and surly. Use to live the fine in experience. He barked about me standing out the counter to place an order then when I went to be seated to wait in the order he came over to my table asking me if I was okay now. I was like I’m fine. Then started again fussing about not wanting his place to be “ghetto” that’s why he doesn’t allow people to stand at the counter. Again I said okay. Sitting there a black gentlemen was checking g out and a white couple came to the counter clearly closer than I was standing he nothing but kindness and thanked them repeatedly for coming. Then called my name to pick up my order. I almost cancelled it earlier but this establishment is a staple in the community so I stayed. While paying he started again saying he was giving me a piece of cake for free for fussing at me. I told him no you were fussing at yourself because I will not engage. He started at me in confusion and I left. Got the food home. Paid $20 for medium filet sigh only and there were three nugget sized catfish strips with three pieces of bread on top. I don’t like my fish with juice cooking out so I trashed it. I will keep eating my Dads or fry my own. If you are going to be that grumpy at least give the food to back it up. IJS
