Went to The Reel in New Braunfels last night. Great fried shrimp and oysters. Didn’t have have Woodford Reserve so I splurged and ordered a double Garrison Brothers on the rocks. Just as I suspected, my drink was more than my food order. bang

Po Melvins in Irving has good fried shrimp and po’boys. I hadn’t been there in a while, but went there the other night with my Dad and it was really good. I had blackened catfish and fried shrimp. Been eating there probably 25-30 years.


You should have been here yesterday!

https://www.awshucksdallas.com/aw-shucks-frisco/ go to the bottom of that for links to all locations

Aw Shucks on Greenville is the original one, for years it was rated as the best fried shrimp in Dallas and the times I ae there U had to agree. They have since expanded out with more locations including a couple of Big Shucks

CATFISH
You’ll find delicious catfish at Shucks. We purchase our catfish from Superior Catfish – farmed by a colony of Mennonites in Macon, Mississippi. Superior Catfish all began with a man named Bill Saul and his family digging a hole for a pond to use for irrigation for his produce. They decided to stock the pond with catfish in the winter when no irrigation was needed.

Together with his children, they processed their catfish by hand and marketed them locally along with their produce. It was an immediate success. Through hard work and dedication, Superior Catfish, produces and delivers a mild-tasting catfish that keeps us coming back for more! We want the BEST for our Shucks customers, and we believe we’ve found
that with Superior Catfish.

Kens in Breckinridge has decent catfish. I eat there a couple times a month. The chicken gizzards are great.

For years when I was living on Palestine I wouldn’t eat fish at a restaurant unless I was with a customer. I ate fish three nights a week or more at home and restaurant fish was never as good as fresh. Now I only fry fish maybe three times a month.

Got to say it. The Kosse Cafe in Kosse, Tx has great catfish, but only on Fridays.

Oh man just got back from having lunch with my beautiful daughter inlaw at Hook Line & Sinker on Lemon Ave in Uptown Dallas.
Ordered the combo Fried Catfish & Fried Shrimp basket which comes with 1 Catfish filet and 4 Shrimp, plus a cup of Gumbo.

Best dang fried shrimp I have had in a very long time, they were big, moist with a great batter. The Catfish was very good but kind of small filet in the same great batter.
The seafood gumbo was more like soup than gumbo, good flavor and lots of little shrimp, just not Gumbo to me.

Hated to but had to put it in the fridge, to full from lunch.

Man I have been dieting pretty hard for over a month now and have lost 20lbs, today I went completely off track and loved every calorie of it grin
Had a craving for a fried Oyster Po-Boy, called my son and off to Hook Line & Sinker for lunch today.
Wyatt had the fried Shrimp & Catfish fillet combo, me yep the Po Boy.

It was pretty good, needed some Tabasco though.

If you know of a place to get a great fried Oyster Po Boy in the DFW area, please share.

We tried Shuck Me in downtown Denton last week. Beer was cold, grilled oysters were good. I tried the fried fish, shrimp and oysters......ehhhh. Wouldn't order them again.
I really do like Flying Fish in FW on Montgomery. Pretty hard to beat for fish and shrimp.

There’s a Flying Fish in Arlington too, it’s as good as the FW location. Just sharing, as I just stumbled across it.
