Catfish King of Atlanta

The location was very clean and appeared to be recently renovated in areas of the restaurant. The food was decent but not the best I've had, I guess I was spoiled to the original David Beards Catfish King on 155. The onion were awesome but everything else was average. We got the Cajun filets and nothing was Cajun about them. When you say cajun I'm expecting some spice and a little bit of heat, but it failed to deliver on that. The servers were friendly and helpful but the food was very slow coming out, took 30 minutes to get our food.

Who serves frozen butterfly shrimp for premium prices, fish is good.. Service is always atrocious. I don’t know if she’s the owner, but the lady at the register is always SO RUDE. We used to love coming here.. but honestly it’s just not like it used to be. I honestly hoped after the remodel and the extending hours that it would take a turn, but obviously they have learned nothing. Good luck.

Do not waste your time. Fish were not good!! They tasted like foreign raised. You order at the register and they ask for a tip so I leave one thinking we would get table service. Wrong!! Had to get refills and condiments out of a refrigerated box. This tipping habit has gotten out of control by employees just wanting a hand out for zero service! We each had a 2 piece fish plate with two sides and it was over $30 plus the tip. I was hoping for a great meal and want to support being it was operating on limited hours since the pandemic.

Full out 1 star. Chicken fried steak is no longer hand battered it’s the pre cooked frozen mess. Fried fish are child size portions. Service use to be outstanding. Quality of food use to be outstanding to. WHAT HAPPENED?! Chicken fried steak seriously use to be so good saving money buying in bulk that pre frozen stuff is disappointing. It “use” to be good.

We noticed that this place had undergone a remodel recently and wanted to try it. Based on others review we were nervous. We were very pleased. The lady at the register was very friendly and welcoming, we had chicken fried steak sandwiches with onion rings. The sandwich was good and the onion rings were very good. They have a new cook, adding some additional decor, and will be getting a new road sign soon. We were pleased at the willingness to ensure we were happy by the manager and staff and will definitely be back!

This was a pretty average restaurant. We wanted something out of the way in different and that's what we got. There were a few local families there. With the place so large it felt empty. The food was good but nothing spectacular. It was an average place with average food nothing to complain about but also nothing to boast. We're glad we went but would probably not go again.

My wife and I ordered a five piece catfish dinner to share. It came with two sides and three hush puppies. We paid an extra dollar for the onion rings. The catfish was mostly breading and very small pieces of fish. Not impressed. Okra was good. Onion rings were fair but only got five small ones. On top of that, they charged me more for using a credit card instead of giving them cash. Talk about nickel and dime. Will not be going back.

Was very disappointed because no green tomatoes, no ice for drinks, no sweat tea (say what?), had to find my own silverware, had to look for a full bottle of ketchup and the complimentary beans left a lot to be desired. And mind you this place had just opened for lunch and they should have been ready for their lunch run but they were very unorganized. I wish I had talked to the manager but I did not and that was my mistake.
