Once again a trip to Catfish Dewey’s proves to be an enjoyable experience. The friendly greeting, great service, and wonderful food make for a great dining experience. There’s no wonder after 40years they still are packed with satisfied diners. I can’t wait to go back again.

If we could give six stars we would. We’re from out of state visiting for work. Seafood is a treat being landlocked at home. This was our second time, and neither disappointed.
