When I say it's off the beaten path unless you know how to look for a hidden gem you may overlook this place. This 147 year old building restaurant, house and inn is more than just the history. Because when you walk into this home you realize you have found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. The golden unicorn. As soon as I opened the menu I said I'm in trouble this all sounds fantastic. Let me tell you was I right! The appetizer candy they call bacon wrapped water chestnuts. The special oysters blue, the French onion soup, the bread and butter, the salad the steaks the sides the dessert. I'm telling you the water tasted amazing. Both my business partner and I left satisfied and telling everyone about this place. Oh and the best part. NO CELL SERVICE. It felt great seeing people actually interact. It was like stepping back in time to when a meal was meant to be enjoyed with laughter and love.

I've heard good things about this food truck and tried it on Friday when I was t my Grandpa's…read morenearby. Their lent menu is a little more trimmed down than their regular food truck menu I have seen before. I got the fish sandwich, hush puppies, and a large side of lobster mac and cheese. It was a little pricey, $31. The lobster mac and cheese was as much as the sandwich for a container the size of a to-go soup bowl which seemed like a little much. There weren't that many lobster pieces for the price, like 3 or 4 decent-sized chunks, and the mac and cheese itself was pretty bland. The fish sandwich was the best part but I still wasn't wow-ed; I was also charged $1 for one slice of american cheese. I'm fine with paying extra for things, that just seemed excessive. The hush puppies and fries were clearly just frozen, and the fries were cold. For the price, I wouldn't come back here during lent but may visit the food truck at a different time to see the bigger menu.

The slaw was good too, but overall I'm just not that big of a fan of slaw. The fish and chips came with 4 decently sized pieces of haddock and a bunch of fries. Honestly, this could be a meal for 2 people if you're not extremely hungry. It was kind of expensive, but worth it in my opinion due to the quality and the amount of food. I would go again. I'm interested in trying their lobster rolls after lent is over!

We didn't want to break the bank as this was a spur of the moment trip. Read the reviews for Hooks and decided to give it a try. Now as others have mentioned - it is a hole in the wall. Sitting on a corner lot in downtown Erie. But the food and friendly service made it worth while. We both got the Walleye single fillet which came with 2 slices of bread and steak fries. The fillets were of a generous size. They were breaded and cooked fresh as we waited for them. The flavor was fantastic. Next time you are in downtown Erie or hankering for some Walleye, head on down to Hooks Catfish Kitchen. You belly will be glad you did!!
