Great visit I didn’t like the old smelling odor but the Chardonnay made me sick like I puked up everything I ate! I missed the live music but I am sure it was good! The atmosphere was nice I didn’t see the tv they are super small due to the high booths. The restrooms needs to be monitored they are filthy and smell weird. The mashed potatoes aren’t seasoned it was just bland. The chicken fried chicken had a spice to it that black pepper was heavy yet the chicken was fried to perfection. The catfish was super dark but tasty. The hush puppies complimentary were good but that green sauce wooowe super spicy I couldn’t not handle that spice. The jumbo shrimps and fried tried oysters stole the show. Delicious dare I say. Being my first busy the food came out hot and freshly cooked. The sides were probably microwaved but I loved the steamed cabbage and bacon. I definitely will recommend catfish Parlour it was a great find on a weekend trip.

The food we received was top notch. Very good chicken fried steak. Others at table were also pleased with flavor. Now that being said. The waitress got all the drinks and orders wrong. Told us we ordered wrong. Had to repeatedly ask for items. (Lemon for tea) (ranch for salad) I watched other tables get up and approch her for service.She got everyone in her section frustrated. The atmosphere and food were very good.

Really enjoyed lunch here today. Food came out quick, everything tasted great, and Jonathan provided excellent service. You can tell this place takes pride in taking care of their guests. Always good to support longtime Austin spots like this.

October 2025: Senorita Carmen was our waitress. She took care of our group as if she was our mother. I had the blackened Catfish with, Spicy corn rice pilaf, Southern Pinto Beans, and a small seafood gumbo. I poured jalapeño juice and squeezed lemon on top of my catfish. Which took the meal to the next tier. The hush puppies were delicious. I combined the jalapeño dipping sauce and the tartar sauce. For an amazing hush puppies dip.

I haven’t been here in quiet awhile. I used to be here every week during work. It has really go downhill bad. The hushpuppies are now tasteless dry cornbread fingers that definitely need a sauce. The coconut shrimp was overcooked to the point of being solid. The coleslaw and fried catfish had zero flavor. The mashed potatoes were instant from a bag.. I paid $44 for a meal that had less flavor than long John Silvers. If you’ve never had good seafood, it’s understandable that this is acceptable. I couldn’t eat it so we left very hungry. Such a disappointment compared to before. The catfish parlor in Georgetown still has the all you can eat catfish, wondering why this owner chose to stop that and lower the quality 10/9/25

You get hushpuppies brought to the table with two different sauces when you first sit down. This time I had the chicken fried steak. It was very good. Started eating it before I got a picture. Last time I went I had the catfish. I much prefer their chicken fry. My sides were tasty pinto beans and mashed potatoes with really good sweet tea.

Haven’t been to the Catfish Parlour in a long time. The atmosphere is cozy with classic music (50s) playing in the background, old photos from the good ole days, and pleasant staff

The blackened red fish with crab and crawfish was cooked perfectly. The catfish plate was great too.

Our server was humorous, professional, cool

Looking forward to coming back! ❤️

INCREDIBLY DISAPPOINTED!!!!! I have ordered from her before and had some amazing food! Specifically the friend pickes. Today I made a huge mistake and ordered Fried Pickles and Popcorn Shrimp. First of all the pickles were completely raw and were not even in a box but dumped in a brown bag which had tears in it
And oil spots. The popcorn shrimp was raw also and even had the white batter/.flour on many of the shrimp. The order was literally smashed in two bags and thrown into another. Complete waste of $30 and Uber sucks so we won’t get a refund more than likely.

Visited during lunch on a Wednesday with a party of three. Our server, Riley, was super attentive and friendly.

As always, the hush puppies and tarter sauce were on point.

I ordered the Lite Catfish plate with fries and pinto beans. The catfish was crisp. The fries are coated, and while they were nicely cooked, I am not a fan, personally. The pinto beans were good. I also ordered fried oysters. They were unremarkable, and atad on the small side.

I ordered the bread pudding for dessert. It is not overly sweet, and very light. My companion ordered the blackberry cobbler and liked it very much.

Before tip, the bill was $92, so a bit pricey.
