It has changed hands since the…read moreoriginal owner, but the current ones have hit the ground running, serving the original menu and adding some interesting specialty items as well. Back in the 70s and early 80s, many catfish joints featured the "trip to the salad bar," and Catfish Hut honors that old tradition with a well-stocked selection of fresh greens and fixings, with Cole slaw also. Our favorite remains the small catfish fillet. The fish is always crispy and hot, well seasoned and not too salty. The French fries are hot and well seasoned, and most importantly, Catfish Hut still serves hushpuppies! Staff are always friendly and know their menu, from server to checkout (they handle take-out orders) We are fortunate to still have this catfish place in town!

The waitress did get our order wrong, but she was very apologetic and friendly and made it right. Do me a favor, the next time management comes in to eat with their family, sit them at one of the wooden booths. I think they'll agree that they feel very awkward and the tables need to be raised to standard height. Now I know the correct answer when asked "Is a booth ok?", it's a hard no!

The interior is also big and very tidy! There was a small welcoming staff there to greet us. The grilled oysters were topped with chopped peppers and bacon bits - came out hot and the oysters were plump and big! Very very tasty! It was about 30$ for a dozen oysters - so quite affordable for the size of oysters. Great bite and starter. I ordered the Atchafalaya, which had fried catfish and crawfish etouffee gravy smothered on top. The rice was a bit underdone which made the over taste of the dish not as cohesive. The crawfish pieces were abundant, but slightly mushy. The sweet potato fried side dish that came with the dish was perfect though - soft interior and slightly crisp exterior. The portion size was huge and I wasn't able to finish the dish. I'd definitely recommend trying the oysters on the menu, and next time, I'll need to try the fresh oysters!

The food here was absolutely delicious from the fried cheese appetizer, the pizza and the best Italian Creme Cake I've ever eaten I would definitely return if only for dessert and coffee. The restaurant is located in the corner of a strip mall with an unassuming exterior but the interior is comfortable and very clean and well maintained. You'll definitely get that old country feel as soon as you walk through the door. Although all the food we tried was outstanding the service was even better if I lived in the area this place would be at the top of my list when dining locally, the prices are very reasonable and the portions are plentiful so plan to take food home...

On our last visit, everything was pretty salty. I ordered the prime rib melt, but was very disappointed. Even the gator bites didn't taste like how I remembered them. The boudin balls were the saving grace. They were large (in comparison to the other boudin balls I've previously had) and very tasty. The sweet potato waffle fries weren't bad either.

The health inspector must not pay attention during inspections. After walking past the kitchen and seeing a bucket of food that appeared to be etouffe sitting on the floor with no lid on it, a cardboard box of baked potatoes next to it, and see the waitresses spend more time circling up to gossip than actually paying attention to their tables..... I will never waste my money in this establishment again. Go try Big Thickett BBQ or another local spot in town. Watching the unsanitary practices by a waitress named Kaitlyn, who seemed to be in charge, and the laziness of majority of the group gave me enough reason to never waste my time having a meal here again.

My fiancé and I dined here on a Tuesday night and it felt very homey and welcoming like we were eating at a friend's house. We had the birria tacos and the lengua tacos which were both to die for. The Birria tacos came with the consome which is a type of soup you can dip the tacos in. Each taco was 3.50. I also had the horchata drink and that was very good as well. Complimentary chips and salsa. I will definitely be back to try their menudo.
