    3 piece steak
    Antecia P.

    Fresh, hot, and good!!!!!!!! Again, fresh, hot, and good. Only con, they don't make their own starter sauce. The packet condiments are horrible!! But the fish is good, so there's that.

    Location is easy to find, you can dine in or takeout. Yes it's real catfish, season just right on my first go round. I was told I would be back next week for another plate ha ha. Service was good, about 15 mins once you order. The 3 piece plate was just enough for me. Fries, pepper, pickles and bread. Now part two of me returning 2 weeks later, I was a little disappointed fish was fried harder than I would have liked and grease needed to be changed. However, i will give it another go.

    The waitress was very sweet and nice 10 out of 10. The catfish 9 out of 10 could've been seasoned a little bit better, it's fried very hard. The fries were perfect. They serve Louisiana hot sauce. They also provide hot peppers and pickles, which was a plus. The Kool-Aid is a 7 out of 10. The Kool-Aid was very very sweet. If you love sweet things, you will like it. But overall, I give this place a 8 out of 10

    Catfish strips. So much value for the price!

    Updating to let y'all know that Best Thing Flopping is STILL the best catfish! I've moved from the 2 PC filet meal to the catfish strips meal. So good. Perfectly seasoned. Perfectly fried. I happen to love crinkle fries so they are great. They've also added online ordering which is great and convenient. They added a Dallas location. If you haven't already, go try them!

    I thought the food was really good and the prices match the value of the meal. The fillets are huge in the links are grilled to perfection. My only note is that it just needs a little bit more seasoning on the fish but it wasn't unseasoned I just prefer it more heavily seasoned.

    3 piece catfish fillets with fries

    Decent fish like seriously!! Taste was good but could have had some more seasonings, and the fillets were a really nice size and thick . They seem to be a pretty popular spot in red oak . The Parking lot is small and shared with a couple of other businesses, so parking was a little tricky but I easily got in and out . When I Walked in there were like 5 other people already waiting for their Togo orders , I watched as they took multiple orders on the phone before being able to assist me . So it's safe to say, people like them . My personal preference when it comes to getting catfish cooked outside of my home, I prefer it to be ; Fried crispy, thick, plenty of meat , nicely seasoned and most importantly a great tartar sauce. A great tater sauce will turn the not so best fish into the best thing ever . To me , The fish here could have had some more season and a homemade tartar sauce would have gave me a food orgasm. Overall , I wasn't dissatisfied with my visit , and if ever in that area again and I want some catfish , I'd definitely circle back to this place for sure ...

    The food and customer service is always on point. Yes, there is always a wait, but it's worth it. The food is hot, fresh, and made to order. I have no complaints.

    Catfish and fries
    K P.

    A lot of food, which is great. Catfish is fresh and hot and fries are really good too. Be prepared to wait outside for awhile for your order, but it's worth it.

    Peeps. I found a "spot" with great tasting Louisiana-style sea food. It's more of a grab-n-go vibe so hurry up and get home. I went Saturday afternoon and it was not packed, but rumor has it it gets full quick. The young lady at the counter was magical in taking orders on phone and in person so don't worry. Tell them PK sent you! #DrKindness

    Catfish Filets, Fries and 2 hot links

    Adding to my existing review ... Run to this place to check out some good catfish. Service was professional and attentive. Ambiance was friendly with a family vibe. Here's the proof ...

    Catfish and shrimp combo
    Summer S.

    It was fresh and hot, well the fish was. The fries were luke warm. The shrimp I thought would be fresh real shrimp but it was the frozen precooked the kind you get from the frozen food section at the store. Will I return yes the fish was great but the other items need a little be more work. The price for the shrimp and catfish combo is interesting because the shrimp are not big and fresh fried like the fish. Service was cool the restaurant was clean which is great as well.

    See all
