A friend of mine told me I had to stop here if I wanted to eat the best catfish in the South, so I had to check it out. The catfish was FANTASTIC. This is a must stop place if you're passing through Chattanooga and like catfish. It was fried perfectly, the Cajun seasoning had just a slight heat to it that really elevated it, and snackum sauce was the icing on the cake. Speaking of icing and cake, the strawberry cake was excellent! I took a piece to go and told them I'd be having it for desert after dinner later on, but it didn't make out of my parking space. I sat down in my car and decided to try a bite and ended up eating the whole thing. The ladies working were both very kind and took good care of me while I was there. I'll be looking forward to a stop here every time I'm in Chattanooga.

The best fried okra I’ve ever had. It was incredibly fresh and light. And I could eat the hush puppies every day. The catfish serving was huge! To top it off, the staff was incredibly friendly. Overall, a great experience. I only wish we were local so we could make this a regular stop.

Best fried fish, green tomatoes, slaw and the nicest people you will meet. 10/10 would go again next time we are in town. Brought water cups for dog outside, high chair for baby, adjusted the umbrella for shade and constantly checked on us.
