WaWa's Seafood Shack in Athens offers delicious seafood dishes that won't disappoint. The Mozzarella Cheese Bites are a must-try, and the 4 piece catfish basket comes with generous portions. The catfish, fries, and hush puppies are all tasty. Customers have been impressed by the size of the crawfish, which are cooked perfectly and are very large. Oysters are fried correctly and taste great. The service is excellent, with many friendly and attentive staff members. The restaurant is kept clean and neat. The food was very good, and the burger was great. Fried pickles were on point, and the fish platter with fries, coleslaw, and grilled potato salad was a good choice. The slaw was a bit dry, but the fish and hush puppies were amazing and fresh. Boudin rolls as well as the shrimp and combo baskets were good. For those craving fish, shrimp, corn, coleslaw, and tarter sauce, this place comes highly recommended.
