Had a great experience from good service to delicious cod fish sandwich and my partner getting the catfish, lightly breaded crispy and yummy. I know folks have had some issues from reading reviews however I really want this place to succeed! We are locals just moved from Louisville and need this great little place! I hope we can be patient as I know the owner has had difficulty in finding employees so I’m standing with her and giving her my support!
We use to love getting a bite to eat here, but unfortunately since the renovation it has gone severely downhill. They lost a bunch of seating, no longer entertain on the side patio, and obviously have some serious plumbing issues since the entire entrance area inside smelled like sewer.
Service has also declined significantly - and it definitely is unfortunately. We had a large party but were willing to split between tables - and were quoted a 2.5 hr wait when no one was in the waiting area. We then watched a party with one less person than ours come in and they were told they could seat them right away - while we were standing right there.
We were then told we couldn’t do a to go order - like others have posted. We opted for the all you can eat catfish buffet - and then told we couldn’t get more than one plate. We were told we could get drinks on the patio but that was it - but when a server never asked us our drink order and we complained - we were then told they never said that. Except a table next to us was able to get a full service server at their table. The owner was beyond rude when we voiced our concerns and grievances with our experience… I could go on and on. It really is a shame because we use to like this place - but I will recommend to everyone who will listen not waste your time or money (super pricey) for the service you will get. Just go to the Marina for a bite to eat.

AYCE Catfish was great, and for a great price
Walkability: Walk down to the boat ramp and around the park they have on site. They have concerts and karaoke ? on certain occasions but in all the food and view is great!

Food & drinks: Oh my oh my... the Catfish is AMAZING! The hush puppies are great! Rounded out the meal with breaded mushrooms, a side salad and cottage cheese, all of which were just fantastic. I can't express just how good this meal was. A+ or a 10 out of 10. Friendly waitstaff and fair prices with a great view of the lake.

We are from Wisconsin known for fish frys. This restaurant was recommended to us. The atmosphere, hostess, waitress and food was excellent, which means the cook was awesome too. The catfish was melt in the mouth!

I'm not a catfish fanatic but I've had it enough in my life to know what's good. This place has the best catfish I've ever had, hands down!Nearby activities: Not too far from Mammoth caves
