The Fish Trap

When you’re traveling and have a taste for some good Catfish and get a recommendation… you try it! The Fish Trap came highly recommended This was a 5 star experience from the moment we walked in. Angie greeted us with a friendly accommodating spirit. I love the fact that the menu was simple and the prices were on point. We ordered food to go, was told it would be about 20 minutes. The wait was less than 20. We headed out and enjoyed the large portion of catfish which was cooked to perfection as was the entire order. Located in Baldwin, the location was perfect! The food, seasonings, service, atmosphere and location were amazing!! Next time I’ll try the Shrimp and Grits which I hear are the truth🤩

What a horrible horrible experience / 2 whiting candies Yams and potato salad. Price $14.64 no problem I wanted something different got home excited open the container my whiting looked like two chicken tenders. $14 dollars 💵 what did I pay for I seriously don't mind paying for good food but not for chicken tenders.

Went for takeout. Needed something healthy, flavorful and filling. This place hit them all. I ordered the Red Snapper dinner, which came with a dipping sauce and two signature sides. First of all, fillet was big, Definitely filling. Cooked to perfection, pan seared in butter and seasoned right. Topped with a small amount of sliced sweet peppers and onions, just small enough not to overpower the dish. The spinach was drenched in a garlic butter soup. I could have swam in it and drank my way out of it. Sauted asparagus, tasted with the same garlic butter sauce. Both greens were cooked well, not wilted. I will be visiting again. I suggest people reading this to do the same!

The food was great. Well cooked, seasoned, and nicely hot. I had the seafood fettuccine and my wife had the banger shrimp with two sides. The shrimp and salmon in the fettuccine were delish and had plenty flavor. Very filling and delicious with every bite. I think the sauce could've been thicker and a bit less oily but overall I would definitely get it again. Made a shrimp trade with the wife, and the banger shrimp was perfectly fried with a generous drizzle of that delicious sauce you'd expect. Just to be clear, all those shrimp weren't just jumbo in name like some places either. They were big as you'd buy to cook at home 🍤👨🏾‍🍳. For the sides we had the Trap Mac n cheese. Aptly called the Trap Mac for short, and it had lobster in it. Some of the best mac n cheese I've had. It tasted like it was home cooked by someone who knew their way around the kitchen. Other side was the red potato salad and it was ok to good. Some might really like it but compared to the other food, it definitely had less flavor (no relish or onions mixed in). Personally I took it home and added a bit of chipotle Mayo and it put it where it needed to be. Now the only real downside was that you don't get much of a warm welcome from the front service. I guess the expectation is everyone is getting takeout so not much of a need but it does make a difference. Overall all I'd recommend getting food here, but order ahead of time. The dinner menu is sit-down restaurant quality, but don't expect sit-down service (too small anyway). Eat a few bites there maybe, while it's really hot, but you'll get the most enjoyment eating it at home. The lunch menu is more to the level of the name suggests and is probably what I'd recommend if you were going a bit more regularly.
