“First time ever eating here. My wife and I went to get catfish dinners. The first thing and most important to me was the young lady at the register who was professional, respectable and focused on the customer and the order. Food was made fresh fried. Tasted great. A lot of catfish for the money. Lemon pepper powder added to the taste. Chocolate cake and banana pudding was delicious. Place looked clean and well kept.”
“The food was good! I got the 2 piece red snapper meal two days in a row!”
“It’s obvious from the photo… the fish isn’t completely cooked. There was still wet batter underneath. The chicken was okay. The staff is friendly and patient because this was my first time visiting. I’m not from Illinois but was told they have good food. I gave it 2 stars because the young lady was nice.. however the food 0/5.”
