My only complaint is one time when I ordered a body mary, it was served with a shrimp that was spoiled. They keep them in the bar area so I just shrugged it off as one off, but I'm still hesitant to order that one again. I hate how much that sticks with me given all the great times I've had. I'll keep coming back and maybe give the drink another try, but that gold margarita is so solid it's hard to resist.

WOULD GIVE ZERO STARS IF POSSIBLE!!…read more This was one of the worst customer service experiences I have ever had anywhere. I called in my order and was told I could choose my fountain drink when I arrived. Five minutes later when I got there, the same employee said the fountain machine was broken and then tried to require me to either pay for a fountain drink I would not receive or pay extra for a bottled drink. When I asked to simply remove the drink and pay for the chicken and fries that were already prepared, I was told they "don't sell that" and that I would not be served. After this dispute, the employee handed the food that had been prepared for my order to customers who were waiting in front of me and told me that my order was canceled. Shortly after, two customers came in and were allowed to order only chicken and wings with no issue, even though I had just been told that was not possible. I have video of this interaction. I then offered again to pay for the food that had been made for me. Instead of resolving the situation, the employee canceled my order and called the police even though no crime had occurred. Being refused service after attempting to pay the posted price, having your food given away in front of you, seeing other customers allowed to order what you were denied, and then having police called over a simple pricing dispute is beyond unacceptable. I recorded the interaction for my own protection because of how out of control it became. If you care about fair pricing, basic respect, or being treated like a human being, do yourself a favor and avoid this location entirely.

I saw one today was hoping it would fall off by the time I was ready to checkout. I think I have previously seen a fee of $8.99 today it was $4.49. I ordered the 3 pc bone in catfish with french fries as my side checked off for everything to be fried crispy which it was. The food was seasoned well and fried hard but not too hard. The fish was flaky as I kept an eye on it so that I wouldn't accidentally swallow any bones. I did call doordash about the delivery fee the representative named Nicole advised the restaurant isn't a dashpass member so eventhough I am I am charged the delivery fee. I then noticed as she pointed out how to see if it shows dashpass under the vendor's profile. This food was so good I can see myself ordering again despite them having that delivery fee. I did have to call doordash again as my Sweet Potato Pie was missing from my bag. The representative adjusted my doordash account per my request with a little extra something for this inconvenience which is a credit that I can use on a future order if all goes well.

The nuggets were a decent size, but I was expecting more pieces. The fries were topped with a seasoning that was pretty good and it didn't require additional dipping sauce. They have a spicy sauce that they charge for... they should at least give the 1st one free and charge any additional. This location had two people on staff, but were moving very efficiently; I waited 15 min max. I was warned ahead of time that they were cash only (Zelle or CashApp) so it wasn't a problem for me. All in all, it's a decent option for catfish in the Mesquite area. I wouldn't mind going back.

However, I'm still a sucker for Louisiana Famous Fried Chicken. I was introduced to this fast food franchise a few years ago and it'd have to be my number one choice for fried chicken, to be honest. Ive tried two other Louisiana Fried Chicken in Dallas and theirs one were spicy asf lol this one wasn't which was nice but finding the center pink sucked. It's why I gave it 2 stars because although my order sucked, my partner still enjoyed theirs. Their order was a catfish plate and an order of two drumsticks. Their fish was thoroughly cooked and their chicken wasn't uncooked like mines. The service was alright, my order was taken and then I had to wait maybe 20 minutes? It was a little busy so it wasn't so bad. The ambiance was casual. You can't really dine in because there's no tables but there are a lot of chairs set along the sides of the dining area and their spread apart. It looks like they probably did it during the pandemic and then just kept it like that which I know a lot of business have end up doing and I guess cause it makes less work(?‍idk). At least it's nice and cool inside. The heat makes you annoyed but their AC was kicking strong. I will say that onn the side of the building, it reeks of piss and I know that's not the establishments fault because I saw that there were signs of a homeless person or persons probably nearby, so that was unfortunate but other than that, inside was clean and spacious. I would recommend trying their food just maybe not this particular one. They only have one register which I kind of find odd and at the same time I guess that it makes sense so that they don't take in more orders than they need to.
