It was so so. I went with several people that are cat fish connoisseurs and they said they have had better and it was well, so so.

Been a little while since we were there....enjoyed one of the other fish listed
on the menu. Not a fan of cat fish. My father loved fishing for "bull heads" when we lived up north. To me, catfish just look like giant bullheads.....don't
like to eat anything that looks that ugly. IMHO

However, next door is Mo's restaurant. Nothing fancy, in fact a little dowdy, but has a decent lunch crowd and ok food (again IMHO).

I had a decent breakfast at Mo's last year. It's nice to leave TV's sometimes and see what's out there. If you ride a motorcycle you'll probably know lots of places within 100 miles of TV's.

Fished with my Dad for bullhead when I lived in upstate new York. Bullhead meat is a little different than catfish. I prefer catfish.

Default Butterfly Shrimp

Went to dinner Saturday night. Butterfly shrimp, cheese grits, hush puppies and salad. $11.99. It was great. Some in my party had corn fritters , sweet potato and baked potato. Service was great. Lots of fun and good food.

We have been there many times. They have wonderful Alaskan Perch and chese grits. They also have the best "Country Jam" on Tuesday anywhere. We have had some wonderful entertainment there, you can't beat it.

Where are Catfish Johnny's and Catfish Place? And, more importantly, is everything fried?? Or do, they have baked or grilled fish?
