I enjoy going to David's Catfish Express. It is a great place to grab a quick bite of seafood. The drive thru is a great thing and has quick service. The choices on the menu have grown and gives you a lot to pick from. We came here to pickup takeout for lunch. My wife got a 3 piece catfish basket. She said it was fried crisp and really enjoyed it.

A soon as I pulled up to pay she handed the food and I didn't have the cheese grits it wasn't freshly cooked, and when it comes to seafood it's so good when it's Fresh not just re-dropped. Idk maybe I'm just used to the full service location but...
