this is a whole piece of fish, not a piece of a piece.   Junk

Terrible The fish pieces were tiny and over cooked. Will not be back. Junk I heard the place was going down hill.

I can't come to Springfield without coming to carters. The have the best fried walleye in the world! I can say that because I have been all over and no place compares to carters. They give generous portions and a order of walleye, pickles, onions, and bread is under 8 bucks! The walleye is always cooked to perfection. Flaky and light tasting. The thing that I really love is even though it's fried, it's not greasy. My favorite way to eat it is to tear a piece of bread, put a piece of fish on the bread, add hot sauce, pickle and onion then enjoy! Their river fries are really good as well. Their cx service is great, they are friendly and polite. If you ever make a trip to Springfield check this place out you will thank me for it later. Ps. They offer other fish as well but walleye is my favorite.

A catfish dinner has 4 filets, I was told when I called to order, but I wasn't sure how large those filets would be, so I paid the extra $4 for two more. River fries, coleslaw, hush puppies, and bread slices meant there was plenty of food for two for $20. Delicious crispy catfish!

I only had 2 lousy pieces of buffalo fish in my container

The reviews don't lie. Fast and friendly fried fish. The only other F to be applied is an adjective before good or great.

Do they have crab legs?

Not that I saw. About Five different kinds of fish.

The fresh seafood at Dixon's is just fine--it's probably the best you'll find in the Peoria…read morearea--but the seafood salad dips and spreads are absolutely swoonworthy. I was recently in over the Thanksgiving holiday, and they had a platter of samplers for almost every variety by their door. I love the sweet Crab and Chutney spread, the super savory Bacon Ranch Crab dip, the chunky Cheesy Crab Spread, the smoother and more mild Clam Dip, and the Smoked Fish Spread. Seriously, you can't go wrong here. The Crab and Spinach Dip was one I hadn't tried before, and it was delicious as well. But of course, my favorite (with the Crab & Chutney as a close second) is the perennial favorite Jim's Holiday Spread. The cream cheese and relish in this make it impossible to stop eating, and the sweetness is just perfect. I wish their online store had reasonable shipping costs so I can fly this across the country to me Los Angeles, where I am sadly without it for 51 weeks out of the year. I have yet to find a local equivalent, so I'll continue to pine for Dixon's spreads until the next holiday season.

Love their platters perfect for holiday time. I've never seen jumbo shrimp as large as theirs…read moreeither. Their dips are just the perfect snack to take to parties too. I have had a couple of times where the fish/shrimp were not the freshest. I had one REALLY bad batch of raw shrimp I should've returned but they stunk so bad I couldn't keep them around until they reopened! It gets busy here but they have numbers so if there are a lot of people milling about inside, make sure you grab a number!
