Highly recommend!Had the plate with grilled catfish .The fish and the specially the zucchinis have been delicious!There is a bite missing at the photo already, I couldn't wait ;)

For lunch , I opt for the sides. Fried okra , red beans and rice and a sweet tea for $7 - that's a great deal.

Kirsty Nightingale

Excellent snow crab & the boiled potato was great when dipped in the butter! I didn’t like the Cajun powder that was sprinkled on everything but husband did...matter of choice.

In Memphis and in the mood for fish ? Look no further than this joint! Food is top of the line and the experience is as well ! Don’t forget to try the fried shrimp . ????

Cherie Branch

The 2 piece catfish basket is great and fills you up, but leaves just enough room for the cobbler a la mode. Yummy!

The crab legs are great. The fried shrimp is good. The catfish was a little bland. Nothing a little hot sauce can’t fix. Lol. The margaritas are fantastic.
