I ordered online and did pick up. Lady had a very friendly greeting that made me smile! 🤰🏻💜
I saw a $8 lunch special for 6pc catfish nuggets and I placed two orders of it- one spicy, one non spicy. I didn’t know it also came with fries but I added a large order of fries with it. Which I do not regret bc those fries (along with the catfish) was BOMB DIGGITY. A fried food joint has my heart and currently preggo belly if they have amazing fries; theirs is fresh hand cut and the seasoning is perfect for my taste!

The fried catfish nugget lunch special came with side of bread, pickles, pickled Jalapeno, fries, and two sauces. I devoured it all- the catfish has that delectable cornmeal crunch and bold flavor and I don’t usually care for dipping sauce but it was delicious, I used it all. Is it tartar or some Cajun remoulade, I don’t know but it’s amazing.
Now I have to come back to try their catfish fillets and fried oysters and curious if they make their own boudin balls - guess I’ll have to find out!

My 1st time trying Catfish Connection in Cedar Hill. I was having a decision about it being hard to find a whole Catfish with the tail. Most places only have fillets. I was driven here and, told wait until you try it. So after waiting in the car (I don't mind as long as it's fried, died and laid to the side. Cook it like your life depends on it😄) It was good. I didn't place the order but, on the next trip I will ask for extra seasoning (When you don't know you don't know). I'll have to make another trip from Fort Worth to Cedar Hill. It was worth it. I did sample a Shrimp from the Fish & Shrimp Basket. No complaints from us.

Update: I'll let the owners of The Best Thing Flopping address the false charge of serving swai.
My husband and I go way back to the days when there was only location on Kiest. The spicy here is good, but it isn't as spicy as I remember. And the pieces and the size of the pieces sure aren't what we remember what they're calling filets are a ripoff. We ordered a 7 piece filet and got what amounted to a 7 piece nuggets! The picture shows one of the larger pieces. Not sure what's going on with the fries. Looked like some type of flour batter but no seasoning at all and the fries used to be seasoned as good as the fish. We paid $30+!! They also failed to call us when it was ready as promised, my husband went inside and saw it on the counter. Was so glad for the closer location, but unless I hear they're giving more for my money we won't be going back to this one.
Check out the Best Thing Flopping off 35 on Ovilla Rd in Red Oak to see what a real filet looks like their strips are larger than the filets here and they have catfish steaks and tails!

Took longer than they said it would take. I placed an order online at 2:48. Get there to pick up my order and still had to wait. The lady at the window told a few more minutes. I made it to the restaurant about 3 o'clock and didn't get my order until 3:26. Had to go and ask about my order. It being sitting if I didn't ask I probably would have never got my order.

Whole catfish was fried too hard and it wasn't spicy as requested. Hushpuppies were excellent

Ordered delivery and was impressed with the food. The fish was still hot when it arrived and seasoned well. The hush puppies were really good. The downside side were the fries, they were limp and not crispy.

My first visit here was great the fish was delicious, second visit fish taste dirty and I know that happens with catfish but I didn't happen the first time lol But I will go back and try it again. Also if you tip via tablet or online the workers inside do not receive the tips so try to tip your peeps and cash they'll appreciate it
