Oh no! There is yet another reason to eat at Little Libby's Catfish and Diner. I mean, we know I love their catfish plates, meat and two or three vegetables, and their memory making hamburgers and cheese burgers. Until now, I have resisted desert as I have never had room. I have to report that the chocolate meringue pie grabbed me by the tastebuds and I am not sad at all. I am just a little worried it is too good. So good! Childhood at MeeMaws on Sunday good. Epic Southern Win ! Would it be too bad to order a pie to go? I mean a private pie? read more

Eversunce I left the south, I've been jonesing for some fried catfish. Our recent trip to Little Libby's Catfish & Diner, scratched that itch. The restaurant has a family appeal to it. The staff is incredibly friendly. The food took a little bit to come out, but it was delicious. The Catfish was well seasoned and the hush puppies had a great taste. The fried shrimp and clams were pretty good. My wife enjoyed her baked potato and I enjoyed my French fries. The sweet tea we ordered was not too sweet and was refreshing in the heat. I'd definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for that Southern hospitality and comfort food. read more

It's a darn shame that there only open Thursday Friday and Saturday for dinner. They're open for lunch on Monday thru Saturday but to be deprived of their blackened catfish is criminal. read more

Service was excellent, very accommodating, friendly waiting staff. Good food. Catfish was good, their shrimp popcorn was very good as well. Hush puppies are very underrrated. I'd get that again. Everything's fried. Fried catfish, fried shrimp, French fries, fried okra, fried AIR lol. J/k. Nah, I had the coleslaw. I got the big fillet catfish, I should've gotten the little fillets because i was getting full off the sides. Their Mac n cheese was alright, I liked their cake and cornbread. read more

The catfish was delicious with generous portions. My son had the big cheeseburger and it was also delicious. They even had malt vinegar which made my husband happy. I thought their coleslaw was a bit too finely diced but was good if you like a creamy sweet slaw. I definitely want to go back to try more of their menu's items. read more

Home cooked food! Nice sized portions and great service family friendly meals and atmosphere

The food was good and the service was great. I had the medium whole catfish. It was cooked perfectly with generous portions. Crisp on the outside and moist and flakey on the inside. The fries were ok, but seemed like maybe they had been sitting around for a minute. Prices are reasonable. Overall a great hometown diner. read more

I hate to rate one star when the service was great but I ordered a medium rare steak and I'll just let the photo do the talking. read more

DO NOT GO!!! LOTS AND LOTS OF ROACHES!!!!!! I recently visited Little Libby's Catfish in Madison, Alabama, and was extremely disappointed with my experience. The restaurant was infested with roaches, which made my dining experience very uncomfortable. Despite the friendly staff and decent food, the presence of roaches is a major health concern that cannot be overlooked. I hope the management takes immediate action to address this issue and ensure a clean and safe environment for their customers. read more

$60 for a weekday lunch? Service was so slow we had to go find her. No seasoning in vegetables. We I'll not be back!

The way catfish is supposed to be done. If you are in the Huntsville area, this is a place for you. Local restaurant and atmosphere with that southern charm. The employees are super friendly with the type of service only found in the south. The honey cake was an extra treat at lunch and washed it down with a nice cold, sweet tea. read more

The best ever for fried catfish and hush puppies. This place is addicting. They also do breakfast. The staff although they are very busy in this home setting cafe I have NEVER had a rude server. I enjoy this place and the employees. read more

$20.25 for a large catfish plate but online it says 13.95? ok that is fine I understand inflation, but the taste is just not worth it. I WANT MY MONEY BACK! Fish was still slimy and tasteless, hush puppies were hard, fries were awful, and coleslaw was not even coleslaw. The dessert was carrot cake but that was not carrot cake. I can not take it back because of my lunch break. Never again! read more

Little Libby's charges you extra if you use a credit card. They have a "service charge" they charge when you use a credit card, which is a percentage of your total bill. We discovered this when we were asked if we wanted to add tip to the bill. We said to just round it up to a round number a few bucks more than the bill. The cashier said that wouldn't be possible because their system would adjust the bill after it applied their service charge and the tab would not be a round number. But I really enjoy the catfish here. I always the get the whole fish selection. They have the best tasting catfish in town. I also like their cole slaw. read more

Great service and delicious food-- got the large whole catfish and it was a considerable plate! Fish was fried properly (love the light cornmeal coating), sides were ample and delicious. Will definitely be back for more. read more

We visited Little Libby's yesterday after wanting to try it out for a while. We found ourselves in the Madison area and figured why not give it a go! It was pretty busy for a Monday at around 12:15. We were seated quickly. It very much looks and feels like what it is: country cooking. Lots of Alabama and Auburn sports memorabilia on the walls, some wooden boards with funny sayings, the usual stuff you'd expect at a place like this. It seemed like everybody knew everybody, with multiple waitresses greeting customers by name, and many patrons stopping at the tables of others to catch up. That's always a neat experience. The service we received was friendly and professional. Generous, too. She let us choose if we wanted hush puppies, rolls, or cornbread for the table, and when we couldn't agree, she brought us a little of both of what we asked for. The hush puppies were crunchy and savory, and the rolls were warm and soft. The butter spread was the sort of sweet, oily, prepackaged kind. I opted for a vegetable plate, and my boyfriend got the 2 catfish fillet meal. The portion sizes are HUGE. Boyfriend is a big guy and easily would've been full off of one fillet. His dish came with fries, MORE hush puppies, slaw, and a slice of cake. We didn't realize dessert came with meals, but that was nice. He said the slaw was too sweet and mushy. The French fries were okay, very hot, not super crispy or salty. The catfish was good. Not the best he'd ever had (nor I), but crunchy, tender, and not particularly fishy tasting. His meal was pretty solid, worthy of maybe 3.5/5. Mine was a good bit more disappointing. I had fried okra, black eyed peas, macaroni and cheese, and whole kernel corn. The corn was out of a can - no flavor except a vague saltiness. The macaroni and cheese was, if you can believe it, too cheesy. It tasted like straight velveeta, which may work for some people, but tasted overwhelmingly like fake cheese to me, which was a no. The black eyed peas were alright. A little over cooked, but the flavor was good. Fried okra was definitely the best dish. Again, not the best I've ever had, but fresh tasting, hot and crispy. The cake was just okay. It was a chocolate cake with peanut butter icing. The icing was cloyingly sweet, but the cake was relatively moist, and the fact that it was free means I really can't complain too much, haha. Overall, I didn't have a bad experience here, but I likely wouldn't return due to the fact that there are similar, better places to visit. read more

Their catfish fillets are to die for always great and plenty of food. I took my brother-in-law and his wife there after Christmas and they loved it. read more

Delicious. Large fillets, cooked well and not dripping with grease, simple breading. Had the fries, coleslaw, catfish fillets, and shrimp. All were solid. Fries were steak fries variety; cooked and seasoned well. Coleslaw was a little strange that it appears to have been made in a blender instead of chopped or shredded, but flavor was good. They had a huge lunch crowd. I would go again. Convenient to the airport. read more

Yesterday after driving to Decatur to get our second Moderna shot, we decided to pick up late lunch and head home to await sore arms. We picked Little Libby's Catfish & Diner based on Yelp reviews which were not recent. The restaurant was busy for Friday after 1pm with people picking up takeout/to go orders. Inside there were several diners all socially distanced. The wait staff were very nice and accommodating. We ordered a grilled chicken salad and two lunch specials of catfish nuggets and three sides for about $8 with tax for the lunch specials. Deal of the day!!! Our nuggets were crisp, juicy, not oily and delicious after riding in the car an additional 50 minutes before eaten. Hubs had fried okra, green beans and collard greens for his sides. I had green beans, collard greens and pinto beans for my sides. Yummy!!! I will not be able to go to BM's again because the food is so salty. Little Libby's did not over salt or over grease the sides. They were seasoned well. Looking around at all the elderly people over 65, I realized we were the youngest customers by 10 or more years with hubs at 64. Seeing so many elders was an indication to me the food was not overly salted. My last visit to the other place did not have elders in large numbers. Mostly younger than 45-50 were at BM's. The grilled chicken was juicy and complimented by the homemade ranch dressing. My salad was great with crisp lettuce, red onions (yum), cheese, tomatoes, cucumber and lots of crackers. My great surprise when I checked out the food after arriving home was the dessert of fresh spice cake. It was delicious and was a perfect end to my delectable lunch. We will return to try other items. A+ for food, accuracy of order and welcoming staff. read more

The carrots raisins salad. Their Cajun fish bites are good too. The service was good and quick.

Great fried Catfish! I had the large plate (3 whole catfish) It was melt in your mouth good! Hot & Delicious! with fries, hush puppies & coleslaw Filled me uP! The slaw was different than I've had b4 - It's SWEET!!! ‍ I liked it, well enough... & then there was this Free square piece of CAKE! FREE!!! No need to ask. The waitress just brought it out & set it down on the table - YUMMY Strawberry!!! Atmosphere was older diner-style. Nothing @ all fancy. A little bit dim with the lighting. But, not dark. The staff was nice & the place was clean. Good Value for your $$. Will be Back. Definitely recommend! read more

Visited Huntsville last week and when I'm in the South, I always look for a good fish joint and I must say I was very impressed as The Catfish plate did not disappoint. The catfish and hush puppies were spot on, coupled with a cold glass of sweet tea, man it doesn't get any better and for a bonus free dessert (carrot cake). Also ordered a plate of fried green tomatoes, deliciousness. Staff was great, very friendly and helpful. Whether local or passing through, stop in you won't be disappointed. Highly recommend this place!! read more

I will be going back again the next time I am back in town! read more

I stopped in for lunch at Libby's; this place has been here forever under different names. It is know as a meat+3 kind of place. I ordered the meat loaf, mac & cheese, baked beans, and mashed potatoes. Meals are served with a dessert; today was a sheet cake with chocolate icing. The food was average, nothing fantastic. The meat loaf was cold and concerned me about the holding temps back in the kitchen. read more

The catfish on different days can be hit or miss. Seasoned well or under seasoned. I really like the whole meal concept with dessert at end.

Ate here for years ..stop going because of Covid..started back and food is not up to par..Wait staff is doing the best they can but the owner is very unprofessional and a jacka**..Ordered food and had to send it back several times..was informed that food had been sent back by different customers that day so it was not only us sending food back..The owner approached our table and asked if we wanted our food raw..as if my husband wanted to eat raw liver..after years of going and now was just going out of convenience..we WILL NOT be going back to walk on their dirty floors and eat their eh it's ok food.. read more

Stopped by Libby's last night 15 March. Food was good as always. We had the grilled boneless chicken that we like so much, wife had the baked sweet potato and I had the regular baked potato both of them was delicious and well baked. Only one thing I noticed was that the staff seemed very upset about something and the service was not as good as usual. We asked for lemon three times, the last time I asked for it I got yea alright but never got the lemon. Hopefully they get things back where the staff is happy. With unhappy staff you usually end up with unhappy customers. We love to eat here so please get it straightened out. Ambiance wasn't as good as it usually is. I'm giving a three stars only because of the service normally I would give them Five star. read more

They social distanced the tables out, and the server was really nice, but the overall food and atmosphere itself was mediocre. There were flies everywhere, and the food wasn't that hot but we waited over 30 mins for lunch on a week day. read more
