Customer Reviews
We stopped by Huck Finn’s and it did NOT disappoint! 🙌 The fried green tomatoes were perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside — full of flavor. The fried pickles had the perfect crunch with just the right amount of tang. The shrimp were golden and delicious, and the hushpuppies? Absolute perfection. If you’re craving classic Southern comfort food, this place is definitely worth the visit. Great food, great flavors, and everything cooked just right!
This family-owned all-you-can-eat catfish restaurant is an absolute gem!!! The catfish is consistently outstanding—golden, crispy on the outside, tender and flaky on the inside, and seasoned to perfection. They also have all-you-can-eat chicken if catfish is not your thing. The all-you-can-eat menu is $25.99 so get your money's worth. It's fabulous. The homemade sides truly complete the experience. Served family-style, homemade favorites like creamy coleslaw and warm hushpuppies and especially the white beans and ham are to die for. The atmosphere is casual, welcoming, and relaxed. It’s the kind of place you'll never forget and you leave feeling grateful you found such a special spot. I went on a Friday evening and was seated right a way. Service was quick and our server was super
Huck Finn’s Catfish Restaurant delivers a true Southern comfort experience from the moment you sit down. Before we even ordered, they brought out hush puppies, coleslaw, and beans, which was unexpected but a great touch and everything was delicious. We started with the gator bites, which were a bit pricey but tender and flavorful. The chicken fried steak was hearty and satisfying. The highlight was the catfish platter, the fish and fries were cooked perfectly, crispy on the outside while staying soft and flaky inside. The service was excellent and attentive, with staff checking on us often. Overall, a great spot for classic Southern food done right.
Our server Mo was great, super friendly and helpful. The vittals showed up fast, hot, and actually tasted pretty good. Unfortunately, the food overall was a massive letdown. Both the fried chicken and the whole catfish were completely soaked in oil, leaving a greasy mess all over the plate. To make matters worse, the chicken was soggy instead of crispy. Because of the quality of the fried food, I wouldn't come back here even for someone's birthday. It just isn't worth the visit when the primary dishes are this poorly executed. The sides and sweet tea are great but won't save this review.
My two sons and I order the fried trout with mashed potatoes and gravy on the side. And for dessert, Huck Finns made from scratch banana pudding. The entire staff was amazing and the food deserves a blue ribbon for taste and quality.
