Hey when you order catfish you want just what you ordered. The big fish fillets with white meat is not catfish. It may be called catfish in asia but know relationship to the species in USA. I would say this is Swai. Many eateries are selling this all over Saint Louis. I have talked with a.manager of a fish restaurant who to had advertised catfish but when I asked them was it really catfisb they said no it was not. I said to the manager price the real stuff at what it takes to make a profit and not sell the alternative fish. Yes it's cheaper but not to me I paid a high price for something that was not real catfish. Oh I have eaten enough catfish to be an expert on the topic. ????
Call this place 20 times to place a order so I wouldn’t have to sit in car and wait for food. Poor communication when someone picked up phone never said hello can I help u but sat the receiver down and talked to others in background. I will never go here again $17 for 2 piece fish and 2 sides is ridiculous and it’s not a full plate
Clayton ? On Central ?? Is there a pretty pot for white people and a ugly nasty looking pot for black/coloreds ? Spaghetti was so nasty. loaded with Accent or salt. Its salty... made my blood pressure go sky high. Never taste anything like it. Who taste buds can tolerate that salty taste?? As far as the fish, it must be and believe it is that cheap Swai. From Amazon or U.City Seafood store. Wherever its from... Its not real catfish. I know bills need to be paid and fatten up the wallets and purses. $16.99 for 3 swai fillets and 2 sides, only the cole slaw i enjoyed. Eaten 2 out 3 swai and a fork full of That Spaghetti. .. love to see the employees eat it.
