    The Catch menu.
    Ray V.

    My son and I went out for milk and ended up having lunch to catch up on things, and he recommended The Catch. He's been craving and eyeballing the Crawfish Special. I've not really ever experienced a Crawfish cuisine, and I didn't start today. However, I ordered the Shrimp & Catfish (med) Fried Combo and hot damn was it ever delicious and filling! Plenty of food to share or take home for later. 6 pieces of tender white catfish, fried to perfection. Some places the batter is so oily that it's soggy. However, the crust on these were perfect and crispy. The meal came with fries and hush puppies. We both enjoyed a cold beer. My boy, he didn't hesitate and ordered up 2 lbs. of the crawfish... and he ate every single finger licking, mouth smacking, clothes staining one. He was right- this place didn't disappoint at all! I'm hoping to come back and try some other menu options. My Cajun dining experience is limited, but if they are anything less than The Catch in Louisiana, that'll be greatly disappointing but phenomenal for this joint!! We will be back for sure! As always, enjoy & and Happy Catching!

    Catfish, fried shrimp, fries, hush puppies, beans and rice. Cocktail sauce, tartar sauce.

    We love this place. We go here pretty often and the food, service and ambiance are always great. The food is so fresh and hot. The manager is very attentive and always checks on us. We love everything we have tried here. We have ordered white fish, catfish, fried shrimp, shrimp tacos, sweet potato fries, beans and rice and hush puppies, beignets and key lime pie. They make tartar sauce, remoulade and cocktail sauce in house that are all really good. We will keep going here for the food and service.

    Super crunchy and way overcooked!

    Weak! If you like margarine and corn syrup on your pancakes and waffles than this place is for you! My poor waitress didn't know the difference between maple flavored corn syrup and maple syrup! Hash browns were almost unedible!

    My favorite filet catfish dinner can be found at The Catch. My husband and I were pleasantly surprised by this small hole in the wall place. The super sweet cashier/server made our visit even better. Her name is Bella and she is the perfect example of friendly service. She was extremely helpful and made our visit even better. We learned from her that there was a jumbo size catfish filet basket that came with 4 huge filets, fries, and hush puppies. My husband and I ordered that to share and then ordered a regular side of fried okra and coleslaw. We also got one tea and one water and our entire mill was $25. Bella was even kind enough to split the basket for us. There was a lady beside me eating boiled shrimp with potatoes that looked amazing as well. We will definitely become regulars. Go check them out!

    It was great in Wichita Falls, but really slow, loud and not terrific in Tyler. The food is better in Wichita Falls.

    You don't realize how lucky you are to be close to Louisiana until you're in West Texas for 4…read moreyears. You come back to a place like Happy's, and it tastes like a Michelin Star establishment compared to the seafood up in Lubbock. Where is that fish from? The ponds? Ain't no way. Happy's is a staple of Tyler. Owned by the same team as Mercados and Posados, Happy's is their only seafood establishment, and it is a fine piece of art. Inside, there's plenty of lamps and fish hanging on the walls and decor that feels strongly inspired by Mardi Gras. The truest display of their beauty is a chandelier made of Corona bottles. I was meeting my aunt and uncle for lunch with my girlfriend, and my uncle knows this place up and down. You could tell it's one of his favorite spots in Tyler by how he lit up when I suggested it as the place we go to lunch together while I was visiting. We used to go quite a bit when I was still living in Tyler, and he still knows the name of the waitresses and they love him back. I went for the Catfish Po Boy because man did it sound fire. I got it with a side of fries and fried okra. The okra was great and the fries were super crispy. The Po Boy itself was the star of the show. I unwrapped it and destroyed the entire thing. The catfish side was super crispy and delicious and had a fantastic flavor. It tasted fresh and I knew it was really special. My girlfriend got the gumbo and thought it was incredible as well along with eating half of my fried okra. Happy's might have some of the best seafood in Tyler. It's a great establishment, and I was proud to be able to show it to my visiting girlfriend as the pride and joy of some of the food Tyler has to offer. RIYL: Something fishy

We started with the onion rings for an appetizer, in fact we received our appetizer before we received our drinks.. that is how slow Kristen was. We asked for lemons a couple of times, by the time we were halfway through with our lunch, we finally received them... The onion rings were delicious! The right amount of crunch with the perfect amount of Cajun seasoning! So good! I had the catfish po boy with fried okra and French fries. The bread was a good, the catfish was tasty, very thin though. The fried okra and French fries were good too. My husband had the catfish plate, also had fried okra and French fries as his side. His catfish filets were thicker than my po boy. Food was amazing with large portions. Service needs work.

The manager personally came over to ask about my allergy and to assure me they had gone as far as making a new breading mixture for my entree to avoid cross-contamination. Talk about going the extra mile!! Very impressed with the quality of service and our server Kevin did a fantastic job of taking care of us! Now - the food. We had the chips, salsa and queso to start. The queso is thick, creamy and has just the right touch of spiciness. So good! The salsa is finely chopped and very flavorful. 10/10 on all of the above! Everything fried was delicious!! The seasoning in the breading was good and the sides were a good quantity and also very good. But - the desserts...YUM!! We got the chocolate cake which was so fluffy and coated in chocolate that melted in our mouths. The key lime pie was equally high on the yum factor! Don't skip dessert here!! Can't wait to go back and try more menu items. I'm quite sure everything they make will be worth the trip! Thank you for an amazing experience!!

I ordered grilled salmon and my wife ordered fried catfish. Service was prompt and food was plentiful. My salmon had a cilantro cream sauce that was lightly seasoned and complemented my generous portion of salmon. It was accompanied by some nicely cooked rice and green beans and two hush puppies. My wife enjoyed her generous portion of fried catfish and coleslaw and ate a little of her fries and pinto beans. She said the fries and beans were fine but she was full from all of the catfish.
