    Catfish is
    Karis L.

    I love Southern Hospitality Mannn!!! We stopped here after our FAMILY REUNION because, we're foodies and although, we ate a lot at the BBQ we wanted more food! I knew that I should've gotten a plate to go. HA! I had the fried green tomatoes and peach cobbler as my "after the BBQ SNACK," but snuck a nibble from other family members plates (wink) ok maybe, I didn't sneak, but I did try others food. It was really yummy!!! I am looking forward to my weekend back here, to jump around from restaurants but returning to this one also! They have a awesome and welcoming staff. The owner or whomever the lady with all of the swag was, was not playing with employees... she was on them about getting the orders out! Ma'am you keep this establishment going, I can tell!!! Great job!!! There's parking onsite but it is limited ..no worries, just park across the street and walk over if you must , but whatever you do, please be sure to go! Yes yes yes 10 stars!!!

    2 pcs of catfish, okra and 2 hush puppies

    The service is top tier! On a Friday night, early around 5:30pm it was not crowded for dine-in but of course there is a line for carry out at the door! But when I say organized and well oiled machine, yes it was that but warm and friendly. Directions on where to stand are clearly displayed for call-in and to-go. A sign was also displayed regarding wait time. There was no yelling out orders or the feel of chaos and I like that. There were no employees standing around looking busy or multiple people in one spot, again very well oiled machine. The prices are clearly displayed with specials listed. So as I stepped up, I placed my order for 2pcs catfish dinner for $10.99 that came with 1 side and hush puppies. Not bad but how does it taste? The hush puppies are sweet but good. I got okra as a side and they nothing specia and a bit greasy but just okay. They were not hot out the grease but greasy. Hush puppies were not fresh out the grease but still good. Now the main character, the catfish. It was hot out the grease and that smell is the things dreams are made of, you long for that smell. I looked inside and snmiled a big smile. Very nice two pieces of catfish for the price. My only complaint is I prefer my fish fried a bit harder, with a crunch and this was not that. However, it was fried well and was good but no special seasoning just good fried fish. I would absolutely go back agin and request a hard fry.

    This place allows dine-in and carry out. We ordered the Salmon Salad, Crab Cakes, and Catfish Basket (3 pc). The crab cakes are delicious and the sauce is great. The fish was cooked perfectly. More food than I thought it would be. I will return for more.

    2 pc catfish
    Nicole S.

    2 pc catfish dinner, 2 sides, 2 hushpuppies, $15.99 ($10.99 lunch special Mon-Fri) catfish...8/10..seasoned well, but the pcs are small candied yams...7/10...too much nutmeg, not enough sugar mac and cheese...6/10...lacks flavor, very bland hush puppies are good, but greasy to me received 2 packets of ketchup Definitely not worth $15.99, but is worth $10.99...

    Lunch Catfish Basket.

    This is by far and away my favorite spot for Catfish near my work. I'm really glad they are here. It's simple, consistent, fairly inexpensive if you get the specials, and the people are just really nice. I've never encountered anyone who wasn't overly polite and extra helpful. I think it's run by a family if I'm not mistaken. All of the staff makes an effort to make sure you like your food and have everything you might need. I just love that! It's uncommon to find these days and I really appreciate it. I would probably continue coming here even if the food was sub par. Good news for you and me is that it is not! Now, let me say this, I've only had the fried catfish each time I've been here so I cannot comment on anything else. If I have catfish on my mind, this is where I'm headed every time, especially since Southern Hands around the corner cannot remove their heads from their asses and stop sucking. Anyway, I digress.... The fish is always cooked to order and arrives hot and fresh every time. I've had some cool hush puppies before but they get a pass on that. I love the breading on the fish, it's damn tasty stuff. Fries are out of a bag but they are pretty good factory fries. I will be back.... If you know something I need to get other than the fish please message me and let me know. I would much appreciate it!

    I'm going to take a very educated guess and say the reason they don't have as many reviews as they should is because a lot of people simply don't yelp down here! Why do I say that, I called in my order and did pick up and I waited for my food maybe 3 mins max and there were SOOOOO many people coming in and out for to go orders I literally stopped counting!!! And they weren't coming for one plate like me, the average was 3 plates per pickup MINIMUM!! Most were well over that. Anywho, yes yes and DO YOU SHIP!! I got the seafood platter because I wanted to try a little bit of everything and boy super happy about it. Platter comes with catfish, shrimp, oysters, hush puppies and 2 sides. I got Mac and cheese and baked beans. Every single item tasted DIFFERENT so what that translates to is they don't use the same grease for fish that they use for shrimp and etc!! Their oil is clean and you can actually taste the food. Catfish was just good ol catfish. Crispy, goodness and the tartar sauce was kinda sweet, homemade and soooo good. Shrimp was soooo good and meaty! Cocktail sauce for shrimp perfect! Wasn't a fan of the oysters but I've NEVER had oysters so not sure what their suppose to taste like. Mac and cheese is seasoned with pepper and I hate seasoned Mac and cheese but hubby basically licked the bowl because that's his preference. Baked beans were good. Just a very solid GREAT place For all things fish and Seafood! The inside is huge and the customer service is southern style down-home good ole love from the so

    The person that keeps it running smooth and efficient.

    Always professional. Good service with good food. I'm having the seafood platter. It has everything for a taste bud. Catfish, oysters, crab cakes and don't forget the shrimp. TVs to watch while eating. Had to wait a minute but it's worth it. It's cooked fresh

    My first time coming in and can you say more than enough food I ordered the 3 piece filets with 2 sides and they were the 3 biggest filets I've ever enjoyed the food was very good I really enjoyed it will be making a return visit

    I didn't get the low boil crab but this place gets all my lil stars. 1. I walk in and the service…read moreis efficient but friendly. I ordered the #7 which I believe is the friend shrimp basket. I got 15 pieces (they tell you on the menu) of standard sized shrimp for $18. I find this incredible because where I live that's maybe 7 pieces of shrimp. The shrimp is not small (smaller than butterfly but bigger than popcorn) and seasoned well. It came with fries and something, but they let me sub for fried okra and crab pasta salad. 2. My picky sis loved the okra. I was very pleased in general because it was a lot of okra and everything tasted good. But what you should take from this is my picky sis ate a few shrimp and okra and was very complimentary. Let's talk about the service. The place is a tight room that is all white besides the posted menus. Spartan is the right adjective. Anyway, they offered me a lil bag of popcorn for my wait because they know ppl get testy waiting for food. It's free popcorn and I thought a nice touch. My wait was probably 15 minutes and they have ordering online. I trust places with online ordering. They also take square and I think Apple Pay. Again, I am pleased. In summary, this is a great place that thinks about the small things but looks less welcoming than what it is. I've told several of my people to go. If you're like my sis and need lots of yelp reviews before trying a place, just go. It's good stuff. I certainly didn't expect to see a crab spot by my childhood home, but here we are.

    They only get 2 stars because they Cajun seasoning was good. The clusters were super small and…read moreDROWNED in butter. I was super disappointed. I will never eat here again.

    I stopped by one of the Memphis, Tennessee Red Pier Cajun Seafood & Bar locations for lunch on a…read moreSunday afternoon. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant itself was clean. The food had good flavor, and I would consider ordering it again. Unfortunately, it was served only lukewarm instead of at the proper temperature, which took away from the overall experience. What stood out most, however, was the presentation of the restaurant. Upon entering, I was greeted by numerous handwritten paper signs and messages written on dry-erase boards throughout the dining area. For a restaurant with mid-range pricing, this came across as unprofessional and distracted from the dining experience. I was also surprised that there was no standard silverware available--only individually wrapped, inexpensive plastic forks and spoons. As I was leaving, I noticed several customers were being served their meals in takeout containers rather than on traditional plates, which further gave the impression of a casual takeout establishment rather than a dine-in restaurant. Overall, the friendly service and flavorful food were definite positives, but the food temperature and the overall presentation of the restaurant left me remembering why I rarely choose to dine at Red Pier. With a few improvements to presentation and attention to detail, the experience could better match the prices being charged.

    My food was great! The time to order and pick up my to-go order may have been 15 minutes or less so…read morethat was great. BUT even though I checked my bag before I left, it wasn't until I got home that I realized they had left an item out of my bag. I tried to call, the line was busy or went to voicemail each time so I never got any assistance. So unfortunately, that's reflected on my rating.
