    Crawfish platter
    Mel J.

    Food was good and plentiful. The prices were very reasonable especially for what we pay in Texas. We would definitely come back. Everyone enjoyed their food. Loved the boudin ball, alligator, fish, fried shrimp, and of course the crawfish! The service was ok. The staff was very friendly.

    This local Cajun restaurant is a "go to" for a local or visitor. Their seafood is not imported and they know how to flavor the Cajun dishes. It isn't fancy, but you don't go there for wine and caviar. You visit this restaurant to eat Cajun cooking.

    Loved visiting here from out of state! The crab cakes were good with a kick of spice but not re-order worthy. The fried onions were thin and crunchy and delish! The fried crawfish plate was delicious and the Cajun fries were great. The etoufee and catfish were delicious as well! We finished with the lemon bar and it was sooo sweet but good! Our waitress was wonderful, attentive, and speedy.

    The food was great once again. Got the Oyster Po Boy and it was good on all levels. Made with Gambino Bread . This experience reminded me of home . The City That Care Forgot. I'll definitely stop next time I'm up this way .

    The food is good and the employees are very friendly. But if youre watching your salt intake this place uses salt by the truckloads.

    The foie gras pate should be served at room temperature rather than from the fridge...a short microwave warmup would be excellent.

    I wrote a 4 star review for Catfish Inn several years ago, and forgot about it, until I saw it when…read moreI came to post this one. About a week and a half ago, I was on the phone with my oldest sister. I didn't realize I was being loud, but I was basically updating her on my prognosis, which is a grade 4 glioblastoma. It's an extremely aggressive form of brain cancer, and I have been given about a year to live. The waitress overheard me, and when she brought our food, she said our meal was on the house. I was confused at first, before realizing that she heard my conversation. I stood up and hugged her. It was very difficult not to cry. This meant so much to me. I found out I had a glioma tumor in January. February 7th, I was informed that it was a glioblastoma. Then a week later, I was informed that it was a grade 4. There is no grade 5. Before all of this, I had been taking care of my mom, who passed away last February. After I lost my mom, I have been staying with friends and family, battling depression, extreme anxiety, PTSD, suicidal thoughts, and anger that has plagued me for years. In the time that I found out about my tumor, I have been shunned by friends I thought would ALWAYS be there for me, thrown out of my relative's house, and just tonight, after finally reaching my other sister and telling her that I am dying, she tells me I'm going to hell. Why? Because I'm not a christian, and don't believe in god. I've lived a good life, and have treated others the way I want to be treated. But my own sister tells me I'm going to hell, because I don't believe in HER god, completely ignoring the fact that there are over four thousand different religions, all believing that THEIRS is the one true religion. It is unbelievable how "friends" and family can treat you like dirt during the worst possible time in your life, and a complete stranger shows complete, unselfish compassion. If not for my five year old daughter, I would have already committed suicide. It seems as though not three days go by without a family member or someone I thought was my friend says or does something that crushes me inside. I've lost track of the number of so-called friends who told me that we would do something (insert day here), only for that day to come and never hear from them. I even had one "friend" get mad and hang up on me, because I wouldn't tell her where I was staying, so she could come pick me up. She had been drinking, with her husband telling her in the background that she wasn't going anywhere. She started insulting him. I told her to stop insulting her husband because he was right, and she told me to go f**k myself, and hung up.This was AFTER she called, crying and apologizing for avoiding me. This is supposed to be a review, and I've gone a bit off track. The food and service at Catfish Inn are always excellent. They have a delicious buffet, burgers, and soft serve ice cream. There is nothing I dislike about this restaurant. Small town restaurants have the best food and staff! I consider myself a strong man, but it almost feels as though nearly everyone I love has turned against me, and it hurts like hell. No, not almost. That is exactly what has happened, and it's sickening. Thank you, Catfish Inn, for showing me sympathy I haven't known from those I considered closest to me. When I told my dad via phone two weeks ago, all he could say was, "Wow. I hate that." then proceeded to talk about how the cost of his Dish Network has increased by $30.00 for the next 20 minutes. Places like Catfish Inn and the people who work there deserve our complete and utter support. If only for the food alone. But the kindness I was shown that day, especially since I am struggling financially, meant the world to me.

    My mother and I live in South Louisiana and try to go to cemeteries in Jonesboro and Mansfield…read moreevery six months or so to change out the flowers. We literally plan out trips around when this restaurant is open. We love it and have been eating there for many, many, years! The food is excellent, the service is outstanding, and the ambiance can't be beat anywhere! I live in Amite and my mother lives in Duplessis.

Upon entering, I found the interior decor to be rather average and understated but do not let that fool you for a single moment. The true piece de resistance is the spectacular view of the Ouachita River just on the other side. It is absolutely magnificent, providing the most glorious backdrop that would be utterly perfect for an elegant evening out, a romantic date, or a refined family gathering. While the setting isn't overly fancy, the natural beauty of the river paired with the immense warmth of the staff makes it incredibly special. To commence our meal, I opted for a classic, perfectly chilled Martini, while my partner ordered the Watermelon Breeze both were thoroughly refreshing. As we sat chatting and taking in the scenery, we ordered the Shrimp and Grits along with a side of hush puppies. When the cuisine arrived, it was an absolute triumph. The flavors were entirely delicious, capturing the very best of Southern comfort. Between the breathtaking view, the flawless hospitality, and the exceptional food, this establishment is a true treasure. It deserves every bit of its five stars, and I shall most certainly be returning
