    I used to eat here very often as a child with my maternal Grandparents. They have Southern fried catfish, hush puppies, coleslaw, boiled shrimp, and other seafood. This is one of the few places to eat way out in the area that it's in. There is an old water wheel for the water mill that is next to the place so that's where it got its name. If you look at the picture of the interior and look back at the support beam on the left next to the door I have a "fond" childhood memory of when got my finger stuck in one of the bolt holes so badly it took thirty minutes, lots of butter, grease, oil and patience to finally free my finger when I decided it would be a good idea to poke it in there one night after dinner. The very next week my little brother did exactly the same thing except it took them even longer to free him. Definitely a unique Southern catfish house if you're looking for something way off the beaten path and completely authentic out in the backwoods of Mississippi.

    Very good food, catfish is fried perfect, shrimp are hit and miss on the seasoning sometimes but very good prices for what you get.

    We happened to be driving by talking about where to stop for lunch. My wife mentioned seeing it so…read moreI made a u-turn. Upon entering, the food smelled great and the ambiance was inviting! A waitress greeted us immediately, took our drink orders and answered all our questions. The fried shrimp were delicious! I also had fried catfish, hush puppies and mac and cheese, which were all delicious. I took the fried okra which was good, but I actually like mine more crispy. The fried green tomatoes were excellent! My wife also enjoyed à their fried chicken. We were delightfully amused at the tin pic pan for plates and old tin measuring cups for the drinks. Our waitress kept our drinks full. To be honest, we were too full for dessert, but I spied peach cobbler and ice cream. As expected, it was delicious! All of the staff were very friendly and we were happy with our experience. I wished it was closer to home to try the supper buffet!

    This is giant buffet joint with an impressive selection. Unfortunately for me the food was VERY…read morebland and really had little to no seasoning for the most part to my taste. They do serve your drinks in cool metal cups to drink out of which I found enjoyable My dining group was so disappointed in the food they left a pathetic tip which I was appalled at as the servers did provide fantastic service so I went and left a proper tip after my group left. The cost for the buffet was certainly on the expensive side and I could eat exceptionally better food at most of the best restaurants in New Orleans for what my buffet experience here cost. I believe most folks from Louisiana wouldn't enjoy the really bland food here. Overall this is simply just not the best food option for me but it sure seems popular with lots of other people so maybe it will meet your flavor preferences.
