Best tasting Talapia ever! I used to come here as a student. Now when I was visiting Pittsburgh from Canada after 11 years this was on the top of my go to list since my taste buds were yearning for their Talapia!

It's a small place, and benches are provided to sit while your order is being prepared. All food is cooked to order. Servings are generous. Food was good. Not greasy.

Revisited December 2022. Still good, but the fries could have been better. They have deserts from a local bakery which is good and bad, the community is great but the products are hit or miss and they don't directly control it. The wait was about twice as long as initially estimated, which sucked but the food made up for it. Really good. Freshly cooked. They do put this like, house blend? Seasoning on everything! Everything. It's good, but kind of masks the underlying flavors of stuff. The one thing I didn't like was the coleslaw, I ordered a large and got 4 smallish cups. It tasted canned and not great. The catfish and hush puppies were straight fire though.

I'm coming back home to visit after 15 yrs and Im coming to get some wings. I hope it's as great as I remember. I miss Hooks so bad. It's the only place out of my fave places to eat that's still open.

Daaaaang this food is delicious. We got two cod dinners with the hush puppies and fried okra delivered via GrubHub. It did not disappoint. The breading is super well seasoned and not at all greasy. Portion size was really good and it was worth every penny. Loved it!

However they do it, pricey, but sooooo worth it. Little tiny stand-alone shop, but the chicken is always so juicy, and the outside so crisp, and soooooo tasty. It's a great treat when I know it's a meal-time, and I am driving by. Don't be fooled by the coleslaw, it's just a sampler bite... you are really going there for the fish, or chicken, or shrimp and the fries!!!

When you walk in the doors of HFC for the first time, you're not sure what to expect based on the unassuming nature of the establishment, but I promise, it’s by far more prodigious than you may expect. I got my favorite, the cat fish. I feel it necessary to report that the catfish isn't quite as thick or moist as I remember it being from my last visit. I was expecting the golden brown crispy crust coating the overflowing white mounds of succulent fish flesh, but the filets being so thin, that wasn't quite the same experience. Still, the fries are exactly what they need to be, crispy, deep golden, and delicious. 11/10, would dine here again and happily destroy my diet and reputation if necessary to get my grubby paws on some of the best fried food the city has to offer.
