    Cod Fish Sandwich with Hush Puppies
    Julianne S.

    My husband and I discovered The Fish Shack when visiting a nearby winery. What a find! This place is like a year-round fish fry. Yum!! My husband and I both had a cod sandwich. He ordered French fries with his, while I had the hush puppies. Every bite was a slice of pure enjoyment! The Fish Shack is located in a wonderful old brick building that is rich with character. The staff is really friendly, and the service is lightning fast. I highly recommend you give it a try. Bon Appétit!

    I'm from out of town and came up to visit my dad. Asked him what he would like for lunch and he said fish or burgers. I knew he was thinking a Chain Restaurant place but I was thinking hole in the wall place. Got on Yelp and searched and found this place in downtown Seymour called The Fish Stand. Out of 27 reviews had only one bad review (somebody was having a bad day) so I thought we'd give it a try. Had the Monday Daily Special - Cod Dinner with cole slaw; fries and hush puppies. Cod was very good, fried but not greasy and no taste of fish. Fries were fresh with a nice seasoning. Cole slaw made with Mayo, different but very good. Hush puppies were home made and very good. Locally owned and very clean. I'd give this place a 10 out of 5 if I could.

    Cod Sandwich and Frog Legs

    Service with a smile!! Great food! Hot, fresh and quick. Very reasonably priced. We had catfish sandwich, clam strip, codsandwich and frog legs. Cocktail sauce was different but was excellent. Atmosphere is small but clean and perfectly decorated! We were very pleased with our side stop off the beaten path!

    Friday special, shrimp dinner with hush puppies, fries and coleslaw. Delicious and a lot of shrimp.

    Really good! Was in the area and decided to check out the Fish Stand. Nice little place. Plenty of seating, both tables and a counter with plenty of stools. You order at the counter and they bring your food to your table. I ordered the Friday special, fried shrimp dinner. It comes with coleslaw, fries and hush puppies. My partner wanted the cod sandwich, but they had already sold out, so she went with the catfish sandwich and the fried green beans. Food came out fast and hot, right out of the fryer. I loved my shrimp and the housemade cocktails sauce. The fries were just okay. The hush puppies were good, a bit more onion than I expected but still tasty. Jean ate my coleslaw and enjoyed it. Her catfish sandwich was HUGE. Two very large fillets. She enjoyed it but it was more food than one person can eat. She wasn't a fan of the green beans. Pepsi products and ice tea to drink. The tea was fresh and good and they give you a large glass full. Locals were coming in and ordering as we had our dinner. Mostly take out orders. They seem to have a lot of regular customers, always a good sign. Service was friendly, and the food was fresh and delicious. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area.

    The fish is fresh and perfectly deep fried. The buns are disappointingly plain, wilting fast. Worth a try!

    If this was in Indy, it would be 3 stars: typical Chinese buffet…read more But it's not in Indy...it's in Seymour. Seymour is a desert, barren of all non-chain restaurants. Essentially, you can eat at Applebee's, or Applebee's with a western theme, or Applebee's with a southwest theme, or Cracker Barrel. Or fast food. On a recommendation from a resident (who is similarly disappointed in the restaurant offerings of his city), we came here. The buffet was large with lots of choices. There is a big fish tank inside the front door with comets, koi, an arowana (what?) and what appeared to be big orange cichlids. But midas cichlids coexisting peacefully with goldfish? They must be something else. There were Oreos! And gummi fruit slices (like big gum drops)! Even some little California rolls over by the salad and pudding. I essentially tried one piece of about half the items. They were all good. There's a raw area where you can create a stir-fry to be cooked on the Mongolian grill (I made a tiny one with beef and lo mein noodles). I especially liked the thin-sliced pork that was red colored and kind of sweet flavored and the chicken with broccoli. The crab rangoon had lots of crab in it, and was quite tasty. I went up for a second piece of that. The total with tax was $9.26. All 4 of us enjoyed our meal, and agreed that for less than $10 we couldn't have done any better anywhere else in town. The decor is cute too. The servers wear little Chinese silk tops and there are teapots and other "Chinese things" on display throughout. From the road, look for the Tumbleweed and Little Cesar's...it's behind those.

    It's a basic Chinese buffet, not fancy, no Habichi grill - the food is typical but tastes good…read more decently priced. Nothing special, but there are a lot worse. At least the one time I went

We stopped last night for dinner. After being seated and provided with chips and a couple of salsas we were greeted by our server, Luis. Luis took our drink order, a Palermo and a Margarita and left us to study the extensive menu. Drinks were promptly provided and Luis to our our order. My wife ordered the Monica's Plate, a delicious dish of rice served with tender strips of chicken and large grilled shrimp in a queso sauce. I ordered Shrimp a la Mexicana, a delightful mix of grilled shrimp with grilled jalapeños, onions and tomatoes. All grilled to perfection and served with rice, salad, guacamole and pico de gallo. Both meals were well more than either of us could finish, but we were traveling through sadly left the remains. (We both did finish all of the shrimp). Throughout out meal, Luis continued to stop back at our table checking on us and refilling our glasses. In all another wonderful meal at El Nopal in Seymour.

From the moment we were seated, our server seemed rude and acted like he didn't really care that we were there. I tried to overlook it because I came for the food. After we received our meals, he checked on us only once. About halfway through my meal, I wanted to order another margarita. I waited around five minutes but couldn't find our server. When I finally saw him, I tried to get his attention, but before I could even ask for anything, he interrupted me and said, "No, in a minute," then walked away. Instead of coming back to our table, he immediately went to the table behind us and then disappeared again without acknowledging us. After waiting another 10 minutes, I had enough. We asked for boxes, packed up our food, and left. Because of the poor service, I left a $10 tip. Unfortunately, the experience didn't end there. My son accidentally left one of his shoes, so I went back inside to get it. As I walked in, I overheard our server telling the busser, "She only left $10. I told you." The moment he noticed I had heard him, he immediately stopped talking and walked away. That was incredibly unprofessional and disappointing. The only reason I left a $10 tip was because of the poor service we received. I've visited this restaurant many times and have always had excellent service, which is why this experience was so surprising. I hope this feedback is taken seriously so that other guests don't have a similar experience.
