    The food is true Cajun and also spans fried, comfort, and vegetable dishes. This is a hard place…read morefor vegetarians but not impossible (salad with vinaigrette and sweet potato fries! Veg sides). The food is so fresh and flavorful. Service was exceptional - quick, detailed, generous. I tipped 35% it was so good. Ambiance is mixed--kind of cavernous in one room; plastic tablecloths and photographs stapled to the wall are incongruous with the price point of the food but I don't personally care. I was comfortable there. They have an adults only dining area which seems neat; and string lights

Then after about 60 minutes the food came out. I ordered the shrimp and grits. The shrimp were undercooked. The grits were cold. My brother in laws prime rib came out at least 10 minutes after everyone else was given their food. I would have sent my food back as would have my mother in law. But we didn't see our server. When he did come back he said he would be back with pictures of tea. Never saw him again. We just handed him the credit card card so we could get going I appreciate that you felt that you help serve our table other than ring out 3 out of 8 entrees about an hour after the orders were placed. We did not see you review the time stamps Yes your poor server did the best he could. You did not address the cold food raw shrimp and the 10 minutes of waiting for the last entree to arrive. The table next to us yes you came and brought water, tea other drinks Not our table. oh and the table that was seated about an hour after we arrived a group of six was served dinners timely.

    I had some guys I meet here at training class recommended this place. It was not open till after 4…read moreso me and my wife thought we could give it a try, I was raised eating Catfish, and there are bad places as well as good places. Frying it right does require a unique skill so we were interested to see if this place lived up to the hype. Well you're in for a treat worthy of a road-trip meal -- warm hospitality meets seriously flavorful Southern seafood. This place nails that cozy, down-home vibe without skimping on quality or portion size. Their fried catfish fillets and catfish steaks are golden, flaky, and satisfy that crispy-outside, tender-inside craving perfectly. The peel-and-eat shrimp regularly show up on locals' highlight reels, and if frog legs are your jam, they're on the buffet lineup too. On busy nights the buffet spreads wide, offering fried shrimp, hearty fish, and classic Southern sides that keep your plate rotating. The drink lineup may not be fancy, but it's exactly what pairs best with this kind of food: ice-cold sweet tea and lemonade refreshingly cut through the rich flavors, and classic soft drinks round things out with ease. If beer or wine is your companion of choice, there's usually a modest selection available to complement the meal. Being from the South, sides are just as important as the entrée -- and Catfish Barn delivers. You'll find creamy macaroni & cheese, broccoli mac salad, green beans, and pinto beans that feel like grandma just put them on the table. Don't skip the fried okra and hush puppies -- they're classic, crunchy bites that dance beautifully with tartar sauce. After all that savory goodness, you need dessert. Patrons consistently gush about the pecan cobbler and strawberry dessert, often topped with ice cream that melts into every sweet nook. Whether you're a local or a visitor, they're the perfect last course to cap a soul-satisfying meal. Catfish Barn isn't just a restaurant -- it's a small-town institution where food, friends, and family come together over big plates and bigger flavors. The buffet style keeps everything hot and plentiful, the service is friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is casual yet full of warmth. Sure, expectations should stay humble (this isn't fine dining), but for genuine Southern seafood cooked with heart? This place stands tall. Would I come back? Absolutely -- with friends and a big appetite. All in all this was nothing crazy or fancy just down home southern cooking. Very inviting atmosphere. You can tell a lot of the customers are regulars and comfortable which in part is the staff because this was my first trip ever here and they made me feel at home.
