⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Stephen Hunt
Nice menu and pleasing prices. The food was delicious and the table service was awesome. Staff was very attentive. Their catfish, hushpuppies, cole slaw and oven-baked potato was a true winner!! Our dining experience at Katy's Katfish was terrific. The place is not much to look at but their food and service was certainly outstanding!!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Victoria Randolph Realtor
After a recommendation from a gentleman I met at Dollar general, we decided to try Katy’s Katfish today. We were hungry and decided to have a late lunch. We were seated and our drink orders taken right away. The waitress brought our drinks, coleslaw and a big basket of hush puppies. I ordered the catfish filet and baked potato and my hubby got the catfish strips and fries. Everything was very good. I’m picky about coleslaw and it was delicious. The waitress offered us more, but we knew we wouldn’t finish our other food, as it was. The breading on the fish was so good and crispy. The fish was cooked to perfection. We ended up bringing home half of my filet and two of the strips, as well as several hush puppies. Our waitress was great and very attentive. We didn’t get her name but her initials were TB. I highly recommend and we will return.

Stopped in for dinner while we were down from Connecticut. Those hushpuppies & coleslaw could be a meal by themselves! Fantastic food - we all left stuffed & happy. Highly recommend.
