- CRCarolyn K. RogersFeb 2, 20264.0Great service, the food, especially the beans was a little too salty for me though. Coleslaw was great! Beautiful views at sunset across the lake.
- SVShonda VaughnFeb 1, 20265.0Man do you get your monies worth....wow! Great view and a lil off the beaten path
- JCJoseph ChandlerJan 17, 20265.0Wonderful food and service! The catfish filets and the shrimp were hot and fresh as were the hush puppies (two kinds) and beans that were on the table with chow-chow, fresh coleslaw, sliced onion, and enough butter, ketchup, and tartar sauce for everyone as we were seated. The fish and shrimp was brought to our table regularly and hot from the kitchen. Wonderful experience all the way around. We had a party of 9. They do charge gratuity for a party that large. Would definitely recommend. The house dogs will greet you like your own when you're walking up (if your dogs love you and are happy to see you). You can tell they are well loved. Beautiful drive out, also. Around 30 minutes from Gilmer or Mount Pleasant.
- RDRobert DunnJan 11, 20265.0Enjoyed the all you can eat Catfish and Shrimp. One plate Whole Catfish, another plate Catfish Filets. Plus the typical side dishes. (Loved the hush puppies.) Great view of Lake Bob Sandlin looking West. (Near Pittsburgh, Texas.) Price a little high for what we would eat for dinner. Overall, enjoyed the drive and experience.
- MPMelissa PJan 10, 20265.0This the BEST Catfish Restaurant on the lake! Call before you go so that you know they are open. We drove all the way out there New Years Day only to find them closed, website said they were open!
