1/2 catfish strips burn it with fries and beans

Incredible food, incredible service! The best place to get catfish in the state of Texas! Highly recommend the catfish strips and Burn it!!

Black eyed peas, extra crispy catfish, fried okra
Danelle S.

Very good catfish! It's been about 20 years since I had catfish and this was like eating my childhood memories. Extra crispy is the way to go! The hush puppies were also so good! I didn't care for the black eyed peas... too soupy. However I could have eaten only fried okra and been happy! So good! If I lived in the area, I would frequent this establishment.

Our favorite catfish joint. We love it so much we drive 45 minutes to enjoy the good food and super friendly service. My husband ordered the 2 piece w salad and spinach. I ordered the 2 piece w shrimp w pinto beans and cole slaw. Delicious. It was nice and cool inside since it was hot as fish grease outside. Can't wait to visit again.

Huck's catfish was great there, service was good I liked the hushpuppies they were so good. Cream spinach was also really good. catfish was AMAZING, my son does not like catfish but he really liked it here. Skip the shrimp though!

My favorite place to get catfish! This spot is really worth the drive. The catfish is so fresh and doesn't have that fishy taste whatsoever. I love their fries and other fried veggies (squash, okra) as well! The sweet tea is also on point. This place is like stepping back in time lol, it's dated but fits the experience. Be prepared to wait a bit if you come on the weekend but it's well worth it!

Fried catfish, fried shrimp, coleslaw, and beans.

The best fried catfish I've had in years, the shrimp were excellent, as well as the coleslaw and beans! Had the best experience, the service was above and beyond wonderful!! Would recommend 100%

3/4 order of cat fish
Lewis H.

Came here on the recommendation of another restaurant, for a great burger. Really solid place. First they address food allergies in their menu. The cook shellfish in separate oil, making it easy to order. This time just had to have the catfish. The catfish was light and moist, not a hint of fishy flavor. The sides were good, although the fries were soggy. Service was super fast and friendly. The parking lot was busy, but the interior is larger than it looks Do yourself a favor try bucks

Will drive an hour to eat at Hucks! No fancy tables or ambiance just the nicest staff delivering the best tasting Mississippi styled catfish. Extensive side options. I order my catfish extra crispy with a hint of Cajun and it's always perfection!

We had noticed that the MOD had walked by several times not giving us or the aquarium a second loo. We bring to our waitresses attention. she said she would pass it along. then the manager walked by again-so we call her over. she became very loud...(maybe to be sure everyone heard and didn't mention again?). there was a bigger fish nibbling at the dead one. she let us know that there was nothing the staff could do about it because a company maintains the aquarium. Stating she's heard it 20 times today. "ok, can you cover it up?". she laughs-continuing to talk loudly. she was very unprofessional and it was not a good experience. lots of kids around.

The biscuits were very dense and almost hard to swallow. The chicken breast was dry and hard to cut through. The sauce that it came with was just OK, but nothing special. The fries seemed like they just came from the frozen aisle of a grocery store. The salads were very simple and used store-bought salad dressing, which was disappointing, especially for the ranch. I always love, salmon, but I couldn't finish this salmon because the taste was not good and it was much too fishy. I liked the crust on the outside. I also really love mac & cheese, but I also couldn't finish it because it was not good and had an off flavor. The Mississippi mud pie was the best part of the meal besides the brussels sprouts. The ambience inside feels like a hotel restaurant and the service was OK.

For dinner we had the fried chicken, southern greens, and hop john rice. The chicken is one of the best. I can't think of one better.

The Hop John rice paired well with the chicken. This place is special.

This place is truly something special, from the gracious hospitality to the incredible menu. The menu delivers elevated Southern comfort food that somehow manages to feel both nostalgic and fresh at the same time. I've worked my way through almost the entire menu over multiple visits, and I can honestly say that everything is incredible. Every time I take someone new there, I tell them that there hasn't been one dish that I've ever thought "meh" about. Every dish is so flavorful and outstanding. That said, I absolutely have my go-to order: the cornbread (a must), the southern greens, and the fried chicken. The cornbread is almost like a melt in your mouth dessert, that I happily start every visit with. The greens are packed with rich, savory flavor, and I'm not kidding when I say that every time I have them, I literally dream about them for weeks after. And the duck fat fried chicken? Crispy, juicy, and hands-down some of the best I've ever had. Beyond the food, the whole experience just feels thoughtful, from the quality of ingredients to the execution of every dish. You can tell there's real intention behind everything coming out of the kitchen. If you're anywhere near Farmers Branch, this spot is worth going out of your way for. And if it's your first visit--trust me, get the cornbread, southern greens, and fried chicken. You'll be dreaming about it later.
