I tried the catfish fingers and it was very good, but both times I got coleslaw and it was very warm. I do not understand that whatsoever.and I live. Try close to the restaurant, and the coleslaw was delicious but just way to warm…
Authentic Florida comfort food!
Catfish Johnny’s serves up fresh seafood with Southern charm. The weekly specials—shrimp, grouper, and combos—are always on point. Friendly vibe, great prices, and worth the stop off I-75.

They have the best catfish fingers in the world !!! Their corn nuggets are yummy too. Great wait staff. Easy parking and decent prices. If you haven't eaten here, you're definitely missing out on a lot of great meals, lunch or dinner

Still in the parking lot, ordered combo catfish and gator, catfish was limper than a 80yr old male, gator was nasty dark meat even my dog spit it out at least she liked the catfish.
The Grouper is amazing the best hands down
Always nice to be able to just go and sit outside and relax with a friend

We got the perch and bay scallops. Started with a fish dip appetizer. The perch was fine. The bay scallops tasted fishy and not at all sweet. I've worked at major seafood restaurants so I know. The fish dip was bland and not tasty. Atmosphere was what you'd expect. There's a taproom adjacent which is very cool and they have a nice menu. Probably would go back for the grouper or perch and hush puppies only because I live in the neighborhood. They were out of grouper so we'll try to get that next time. 😕

We had a great dinner here. Service was great and everyone was very nice and welcoming. The food was cooked just right. I had the shrimp with fries and my husband had the catfish fingers with coleslaw. The coleslaw was good. For dessert we had the homemade key lime pie and that was really limey and tasty. We will definitely come back again.

Honestly the best seafood we have had since the last time we were at the coast. The servers are nice, down to earth people. The restaurant itself is very clean. It's not extraordinarily fancy, but has a charming, wood polished interior. The outside parking lot and outside area is a little primitive and doesn't represent how excellent this place is, but you don't eat a parking lot.
