Huck's Catfish: Reviews & Ratings
Crispy (cooked a minute longer) catfish is great flaky and not muddy. Okra, fresh cut fries and Potato salad with ham is good. Coleslaw with garlic and bacon is okay but a little bit salty for my taste, however I ate it all. Stuffed crab platter is memories of Red Lobster, very good and would like to try shrimp next. Ask for hush puppies for the table. They are complementary. Friendly staff and clean. Mariner decor. Accepts credit cards. Parking on street okay for RV.
It was awesome experience. The food was amazing . Service was great, and the ambiance seemed like home.
We had a very large group and had a great experience. Fish was awesome, some people in our party had to change their order because they ran out of burgers. Overall really good food and atmosphere.
Very good catfish! It's been about 20 years since I had catfish and this was like eating my childhood memories. Extra crispy is the way to go! The hush puppies were also so good! I didn't care for the black eyed peas... too soupy. However I could have eaten only fried okra and been happy! So good! If I lived in the area, I would frequent this establishment.
Went there about a year ago and found the catfish was very good but the tartar sauce was very, very bland.
Wonderful, small place good catfish and best cream spinach in Texas been going for years
We had the fried catfish and it was really good. The ambience is really nice for a catfish place. The young lady that waited on us did a fine job. Very good. Thanks from Arkansas. I left nothing on my plate.
My favorite place to get catfish! This spot is really worth the drive. The catfish is so fresh and doesn't have that fishy taste whatsoever. I love their fries and other fried veggies (squash, okra) as well! The sweet tea is also on point. This place is like stepping back in time lol, it's dated but fits the experience. Be prepared to wait a bit if you come on the weekend but it's well worth it!
Super solid fried catfish. French fries were solid too. Everything tasted good and fresh. They took a little while and everything inside was kind of dated, but that doesn't take away from the food. I'd definitely go back.
Came here on the recommendation of another restaurant, for a great burger. Really solid place. First they address food allergies in their menu. The cook shellfish in separate oil, making it easy to order. This time just had to have the catfish. The catfish was light and moist, not a hint of fishy flavor. The sides were good, although the fries were soggy. Service was super fast and friendly. The parking lot was busy, but the interior is larger than it looks Do yourself a favor try bucks
