The fish was good but not great like I wanted it to be. The fries were just right. The service was good, and the restaurant was clean. The girls and I couldn't get over the fact that they called the sandwich a "poor boy." Y'all ain't from 'round these parts, are ya? 🤣 (In case you're wondering, it's a po boy!)
We got our order to go, but the inside is very nice and the menu has a lot of good choices in terms of seafood. The gal who took my order, Emily, was very nice and smiley. I’d come back. It’s very clean in here, too.
I got to Bayou Catfish, Scott style. Apparently Scott is the owner, and this is the off-menu dish he's been eating lately. It's grilled catfish over rice, topped with fried crawfish tails and gumbo broth (everything but the meat). Each part of this combination was seasoned perfectly, and the catfish was almost blackened with a fantastic seasoning and char marks. It was the best dish I have had in so very long! (Sorry the food is half gone in the photo; I couldn't stop eating!)
This is a great place to eat just off interstate 20 Tech exit. They have excellent hamburgers including a double (number 2 basket) that can be ordered on a gluten-free bun. They also will do their fried catfish and fried shrimp gluten-free if they are asked. they have plenty of tables inside, or well lit and generally get the orders out expeditiously. They have a call in service with a side door takeout counter where you can park right outside the door. They generally have food ready to go within 15 minutes of a call. A great place in Ruston for either a sit down meeting with business clients or friends or just pick up a couple of burger baskets to-go for lunch on a day when the schedule calls for such.
Great place to grab a burger! Really good food. They get busy so get there early. Double cheeseburger & fries is a lot. Friendly service. Spacious place inside & outside seating. A must eat if you are in the area.
