Bayou City Catfish — Restaurant in Houston

I finally had a chance to stop by this place. I was super excited and was already having a taste for some fried catfish.

Overall: it’s average. Which is why I give it three stars.

Pros: —pretty reasonable prices —very fast service —fried good (but not how I asked for it to be fried).

Cons: —packaged tarter sauce. (That would have given them a full star in my book.) —my shrimp were perfectly tender, but the grease was old. The flavor and scent overpowered the natural flavor of the shrimp. I had to bury it in catchup and hot sauce, unfortunately. —I asked for the outside to be crispier, but they fried it the way they wanted it, and not how I asked for it to be. —the fish is like the size of chicken tenders. They are more like catfish pieces vs. catfish filets. —the hushpuppies were mid. I’ve definitely had better out of a frozen bag. They should find a different brand. —fries are standard. If they added something on top, it would be so much better. A little Tony’s would be perfect.

The menu says Catfish. I didn’t like the smell of the fish, it didn’t taste like Catfish. I was born and raised in Louisiana. I have seafood allergies and eating trash fish makes me sick and causes severe pain in my feet, It causes gout flare up in my feet which is very painful. It tore my stomach up. People need to know that food allergies can kill you. Stick to ur menu. Practice what u preach. For that reason I personally will not buy food from Catfish Bayou...

Hands down best fish and shrimp food in my area...HOUSTON is filled with food trucks on almost every corner but this fish truck is beyond the amazing tasting food...It's family owned, friendly service, hot, made to order, and the most mouth watering seafood that has me running back once a week. The service is always smiling faces and good ol' southern style manners along with the...
