    We looked forward to going and sitting outside in the courtyard with the pretty outside lights, but…read morethey rented a jumpy house for kids, so families with a lot of kids were there running around, squealing and jumping, so we had to eat inside. That wasn't much better because it's an old house that's been turned into a restaurant, so it had an awful musty smell. I ordered blackened Grouper, but it was not blackened, only grilled, and it tasted like a frozen fillet. My husband ordered prime rib and it was maybe a step above a Waffle House steak. None of it was worth $100 for dinner. It seems like this restaurant is mostly finger foods, comparable to Applebee's or Chili's, that is frozen and microwaved. The server was also very slow, and was absent for long periods of time between our requests and/or checking on us. I do not recommend, and won't be returning.

    Friday night we called and made reservations for 6 at 6:30 and was told no problem. We did arrive a…read morefew minutes early and we're seated on time. That was the end of positive experiences. We were told there was a large group in the restaurant plus they had booked all the outside area for a reunion party and because of this we should expect a long wait for meals. Let's start we asked for lemonade but they had run out. We ordered 2 appetizers which we're good. But the server just dropped a stack of plates on the table and we passed they around mine was dirty, see photos.The server came back but I never got another plate. Ordering.... We asked for a Philly cheese steak but they had run out ok how about their burger but no they were out, ok chicken with baked potato, sorry they were out of potatoes too....... After 20 minutes the food came out but not the whole table at the same time. Four came 2 had to wait. Other items were ok except my chicken livers that on the menu you can have lightly fried or well fried, I asked for lightly got over fried. Drink refills were sparse, we finished and didn't order dessert. For a hometown place that strives to be upscale I wasn't impressed. Our guests here from AZ wanted to have a nice dinner and since we live in Adarisville we chose WTG , we will not be back

    It is hard to find whole catfish anywhere near us. My husband found Brookton doing a google…read moresearch to surprise me. It is a 20 mile 45 minute drive for us and honestly we would drive twice as far for it. It is that good! $45 for a bucket of catfish. That is 6 pieces of catfish (fried to perfection may I add), 2 large sides, and hush puppies. It is at least 2 meals for us (most of the time 3). That averages out to either 11.25 per person (2 meals) or 6.70 per person (3 meals). You can't eat nasty processed fast food for that price anymore so I don't understand those complaining about price. These catfish remind me of the rio-vista from long ago.

    Three stars, but let me explain. We've had friends hype this place up.... Big time. It opened…read morenearly a year ago, just down the road from our house and haven't had the opportunity to try it until this week, but have always noticed the lines out door and the packed parking lot. Friday, we decided to go for a late lunch pick up. Let me say again... we only live about three miles from the restaurant. We arrive, it's around 3pm and the place is PACKED. It's an adorable place. Great ambiance, totally welcoming when you come in the door. They've got nice outdoor seating as well, with cornhole games and lighting. Nice touch, especially on a beautiful day. Walking in, we were greeted by the clerk at the register and informed it would be a 20 minute wait, which was fine. This having been our first time there, we both decided to order the sampler platter, which was one catfish filet, two chicken tenders, three shrimp, fries, and a hush puppy. For $16.99, it's a pretty good deal! We also ordered a side of cheese grits to try. The clerk was in the process of leaving and did so after taking our order. We waited. People came in after us and we watched them get their food before us. 15 minutes...20 minutes...30 minutes... finally about 35 minutes later, they come out with our order. We left. Drove the three miles home and opened the boxes. Everything was cold. Not Luke warm. Cold. Waiting that long doesn't bother me. But I do expect after that long, that the food be fresh. The fries had gone soggy, the batter on the fish, chicken, and shrimp were also soggy and starting to fall off. It was obvious that our food had been ready for a bit and then sat back there longer than necessary. And this is where my husband and I part ways on opinion... I do NOT generally care for catfish. Never have. I actually had asked the first clerk if I could sub that part out for flounder, but she said, no. I'm glad she did. Hands down, best catfish experience ever, even though it was cold and falling apart. Zero muddy, off taste that I normally associate with catfish. It honestly was delicious and if that's what it's like cold, then I can only imagine how good it would be fresh. I also liked the shrimp, the chicken, and the hush puppy- although I will say... I was a bit disappointed to see there was only one, it to be fair, it was gigantic. It was NOT soggy, so I don't know what happened there. Anyway, the hush puppy was crispy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside with bits of corn throughout. The shrimp, though I liked it, lacked a bit on seasoning and I can say the same about the chicken. That said, the chicken was juicy and tender. Not quite Gus's or Gutheries quality, but head and shoulders above Zaxby's or Huey Magoos. I could honestly take or leave the fries but that's me... I don't particularly like crinkle cuts, especially after they've gone soggy, which is why I don't like Zaxby's. My husband, however, was disappointed overall. The only thing we agreed on was that the catfish was really good, but he did point out that between the fish, chicken, and shrimp, they all had the exact same batter...the catfish just carried it better. I did love the grits and would pick that as my side over the fries. Just a matter of preference, there. Here's the thing- we do our best to support local, small businesses, pointedly ones who are veteran owned, and recognize that small businesses, in particular, are especially vulnerable to bad or off days. Based on all the reviews from people we personally know, we're positive that's exactly what happened to us on Friday. So, in light of that experience, I'm giving it 3 stars with the promise that we will try again and I will edit this review to reflect that second experience. Overall for me, I'd go back for the catfish any day and they showed me how good that one thing can be when it's done right. As for my husband and his opinion of the other items... I pointed out that it's not called Brookton SHRIMP OR CHICKEN School. Catfish is what they specialize in, and as far as I'm concerned, they nailed it.

They have a happy hour oyster special during certain days as well which is awesome. They don't have an official kid menu but they do have options for kids as well as high chairs. The staff were all super friendly and very accommodating and the food was great! The pasta was also homemade pasta which is a nice touch ! You cannot go wrong here!

    We went for an early dinner last week & they were not busy. I had some oysters to start, they were…read moregood and fresh. Thursdays are $5 martinis so that was fun. The service was super slow and like I said, it was not very busy & I only saw one person behind the oyster counter. It took a very long time for my husband's cup of soup to come out and then we split the roast seafood entrée, This entree was extremely disappointing. The clams were very overcooked as well as the shrimp that were in there and what was 'supposed to be' a piece of white fish was literally little minced/mushy pieces at the bottom of a very tasty red sauce. I pointed this out to our waiter. He left went to the kitchen, came back and said 'that's how the chef wanted it to be prepared''. Really ?! I find that extremely hard to believe, he said the chef had minced up the fish ! I'm a cook and you don't mince up a nice piece of fish; you just cook it lightly in the sauce so that it stays together. He didn't offer to replace our meal with something else or take it off the check, disappointing meal overall. This is a fairly expensive restaurant that we would like to frequent because we live close. I hope they get the kitchen or whatever is going on over there together. I truly dislike it when there's an excuse made for a poorly prepared meal because I know a good meal from a badly prepared and overcooked one, especially seafood. Our entree should have been re-prepared or they should have offered to take that off our bill instead of making a poor excuse. Do better please. TY.
