The food portions are good. The bar service is a little slow. But overall a good experience.

Very good catfish, even though customer service moves on a slow motion.

The Blackened Redfish Pontchartrain was great with the corn and rice pilaf.

They recently changed some of the menu. Great fish and the hushpuppies are to die for. Great for family or hosting a large group.

The food was good, lots of flavor and reasonable pricing.
The catfish was great!
The place itself is a vintage time-capsule.
Very quaint dinner vibes!

The service is where they are lacking.
My server had a nonchalant attitude with almost a rush attitude.
Not hospitable at all.

The sauce is the boss! I've never seen hushpuppies like that. Everything was very good there was lots to choose from too.

Free hushpuppies are a dangerous thing. Even more so when they're hand made and well seasoned. I highly recommend stopping here if you're in the area and are in the mood for sea food

Had crab cakes/fresh boiled shrimp complemented by a fresh cucumber/tomato salad. Perfect portion for lunch. Of course, fresh hushpuppies for an appetizer. The staff were super friendly and attentive. Will go back sooner than later.

Great visit I didn’t like the old smelling odor but the Chardonnay made me sick like I puked up everything I ate! I missed the live music but I am sure it was good! The atmosphere was nice I didn’t see the tv they are super small due to the high booths. The restrooms needs to be monitored they are filthy and smell weird. The mashed potatoes aren’t seasoned it was just bland. The chicken fried chicken had a spice to it that black pepper was heavy yet the chicken was fried to perfection. The catfish was super dark but tasty. The hush puppies complimentary were good but that green sauce wooowe super spicy I couldn’t not handle that spice. The jumbo shrimps and fried tried oysters stole the show. Delicious dare I say. Being my first busy the food came out hot and freshly cooked. The sides were probably microwaved but I loved the steamed cabbage and bacon. I definitely will recommend catfish Parlour it was a great find on a weekend trip.

We arrived right as they opened on a Saturday. Wait staff was friendly, and food was great. Save room for the blackberry cobbler!

Horrible experience. Very very rude staff, specially the lady taking orders on the phone. They messed up our order as well. Will never visit again.

Upon walking to the counter, the employee (she seemed to be middle aged) just walked away so I had to wait for her to come back. Then when trying to collect my order the same lady was being rude when I asked if everything was in the bag, she responded with “well I did my job now you do yours”. No reason to give so much attitude when she could’ve responded with a simple yes. Completely ruined my experience going there.
