    The setup is great!!
    Susan J.

    Saturday night=35 minute wait: but totally worth it!!! Friendly waitress, sweet tea (always a fav for me!), the first course - hush puppies and white beans and a creamy delicious slaw! I could have stopped there! But we came for catfish and were not disappointed!!! Don't be put off by the full parking lot and wait for a table! Come and eat here- you will not regret it!

    Interesting place. It is packed like sardines. Everything seemed to be fried and Everyone seemed to be getting fried catfish. The setup: free default apps or sides once you are seated. Hush Puppies, Cole slaw and navy beans are not bad. Fried oysters - tender, juicy and yummy. We ended up getting another order but expensive. Came to about $2 each. Fried catfish- just ok. Stuff crabs - just ok Fried scallops- overcooked so dried and tough Baked potatoes were good

    The Catfish House is a Prattville staple. You can find the whole city here on a Saturday night. It's perfect for large family gatherings. Often times there is a wait, but it goes by fast. They have the best sweet tea in town. You can't beat the white beans, slaw, and hush puppies given to start your meal off. Great food, service, and memories!

    I am on a road trip and I wanted to stop at a restaurant that has great catfish and sides. I was not disappointed at the Catfish House. Before the catfish and shrimp came out the waitress came to the table with the Fix-ins. The fixings are white beans, hush puppies and coleslaw. I was full before the meal came to the table. I am not a fan of coleslaw but, this was coleslaw was GREAT! The hush puppies were fresh, hot and tasty. My catfish and shrimp came out fresh and hot! My meal and experience at the Catfish House was great. This is a great location for large groups and the rustic ambience is great for this location.

    That's their fish filets.  Guppy maybe.  $25 worth of shit. Refund my card.

    What a disappointment. Expensive dinner $30 each person for some horrible food. Ordered their seafood platter and it was disgusting. Sent back and they still charged us. Asked for a manager and we waited 15 min and nothing. I want a refund. Totally ripping off the customers. We will never be back, rubber scallops, dried out stuffed crabs (at least a week old) all for $25. Fish, what a joke. 2 inch piece and when I complained they brought out an even smaller piece with stink bugs on the plate. Took my wife out for a Nice evening and you ruined it.

    The set up.  White beans, hushpuppies  and cole slaw.

    Wow. We stopped by here on a Thursday night on my way to the coast. No wait around 7:30. We were immediately seating. The place is nice and rustic with fishing stuff on the walls. It's what you would expect from a catfish house. Immediately, our drink order was taken and our "set up" was delivered. White beans, slaw and cornmeal hushpuppies. I could come here and eat just that and be happy. I ordered a combo of fried catfish filets and stuffed crabs. Everything was fantastic. I had fries, but next time I will get a baked potato. Nothing wrong with the fries, they are just those "batter coated" extra crispy kind I am not a fan of. It did not matter I had too much anyway. We really enjoyed this. On we were stuffed but we found out one of their desserts was a fried blackberry pie. That was outstanding as well. We were going to take pictures but we did not think about it again until after we consumed it. Try this place. Its just off I65 toward Millbrook.

    I finally made it to the great state of Alabama and was fortunate to find Catfish House through Yelp. It's a short drive out of town next to a pond. There was so much great tasting food and sweet tea. I was on my own this trip, and everyone made me feel at ease eating alone. Overall, very happy with my choice tonight.

    Food was good. Like a lot of places, portions are getting smaller. Went with a party of 20+ and had only one server, so service was a little slow. Over all, a nice place to eat for seafood.

    Senior Catfish Fillet Dinner
    McKinley H.

    What a great evening! I visited here with some coworkers on a Wednesday evening. Even on a week day evening, be ready to wait for a table as this place is very popular in the community. Once seated, we were very quickly greeted for drinks, which came out right around the same time as plates of hushpuppies, coleslaw, and southern beans were placed on the table. These come complimentary with the meal, and honestly, I could've made a meal out of these sides. While the beans were not my favorite (they were too smokey/meaty in flavor for my preference), the hush puppies and coleslaw were to die for. For my main meal, I got the senior version of the fried catfish fillets. This dish only comes with two fried fillets rather than three, and a smaller side of fries. After my appetizers, this was the perfect size for me. The fries are not anything special, but they come out just as hot as the fish. My fillets were wonderful. The breading was great, it was hot, and the fish was perfectly cooked. I can see why this place is so popular. From the great home cooking to the friendly staff, it is the perfect stop for a family supper!

    I don't like catfish, but my family does and they enjoyed it. The beans and slaw could be my last meal and I could die happy!

    In town for an OTS Graduation at Maxwell Air Force Base and stayed at the Renaissance at Montgomery…read moreHotel & Spa and was pleasantly pleased to see an Oyster Bar attached to the hotel. Needless to say with our recent run on Oyster Bars knew we had to stop in Fresh off the road we worked up an appetite and got right to it. We ordered some Patron doubles, which honestly were crazy over priced at $18 a shot, some chargrilled oysters, fried green tomatoes, crab cakes, gumbo, and bienville oysters just so we could have a sampler of multiple items To get right to the point, the chargrilled oysters which were freshly shucked or smothered with butter and cheese and absolute money! The Bienville were covered with shrimp had a healthy amount of crab meat and a creamy Parmesan sauce that were good but something about char-grilled Flavor that made these take a back seat The fried green tomatoes were very crisp on the outside and delicious texture on the inside but the signature crawfish sauce I can't put my finger on it but it was absolutely amazing The crab cakes were no lie 99% crab with next to no filler which is rare nowadays and the remoulade sauce was totally made in house And then finally the gumbo which was highly recommended due to all the achievements it's one, had the right balance of heat spice shrimp, crawfish, crab meat and, okra is a must try! The po-boy fish sandwich was a healthy sized fillet and you could tell was fried to perfection All in all I feel this was a great experience just touching down in Alabama, the only thing that made us laugh was we tried all this hot food when it was 102° outside. Shout out to Josh for that good old southern hospitality as he took care of us like we were family!

    1 out of 10. This place has went down hill since I ate here three years ago. Actually it is at the…read morebottom of the hill. They were out of catfish, mayo, bacon, red beans and rice. The service has to be the slowest in town. When I got my shrimp sampler dinner, they informed me I wasn't getting bacon wrapped shrimp because they were out of bacon. Probably should have told me that when I ordered. The peel and eat shrimp were old and had a very waxy chewy texture like they had been out for a long time. Hopefully my weekend isn't ruined by being stuck on the crapper. The bathrooms were disgusting like they haven't been cleaned in a month. It smelled like they had a weed farm in the stall.
