Catfish King of Atlanta

What a joke..Fast food catfish joint with crapping fish due to fry cook that has zero care about quality. The warning signs were there... The entry is bland and uninviting, just as my wife and I stepped to the counter I looked over my shoulder into the dining area to see 4 tables of folks with long faces that apparently had not gotten their food yet. The nonchalant attendant broke my focus saying, "It will be a minute before I can take your order". I told my wife lets get out of here. But we stayed. Wife got the salad bar and baked potato. I ordered the 3 piece fish and fries. Fish was luke warm while the fries were piping hot. Wife did not enjoy that salad bar or potato....keep driving folks...

The location was very clean and appeared to be recently renovated in areas of the restaurant. The food was decent but not the best I've had, I guess I was spoiled to the original David Beards Catfish King on 155. The onion were awesome but everything else was average. We got the Cajun filets and nothing was Cajun about them. When you say cajun I'm expecting some spice and a little bit of heat, but it failed to deliver on that. The servers were friendly and helpful but the food was very slow coming out, took 30 minutes to get our food.

Just came by here for the first time with my husband. Ordered two meals and an appetizer at the drive through window. It took 20+ minutes for the food to come out and when it did the 6 piece chicken dinner we ordered (and was charged for per the receipt) only came with 3 pieces. Such a bummer! Won't be coming back here. :(

There was a time since late 80s early 90s, even early 2000s Catfish King was the restaurant everyone wanted to go to. David Beard's Catfish King the name and the quality of food is something that the Atlanta, Texas location strived towards. I've been into this location in the last few days and I can say I'm not happy with the changes this location has made. The entry which use to be welcoming and someone they actually greeted you and was actually happy you'd come there and spend your time & money there. It's essentially a Catfish Cafeteria, very cold atmosphere, tiny drinks, and orders mixed up. There was no manager on duty, employees sitting around behind the manager whom I assume was the one cooking as well. The manager is just that someone who is suppose to make sure the staff is doing

I didn’t think it was that wonderful with previous owners, but the new owners have made it 10x worse. Cajun fish was small and had no flavor whatsoever. French fries were just frozen with no salt or seasoning. Beans tasted like they were from a can with no seasoning at all. Chicken fried chicken used to be hand breaded and is now just a frozen patty. Cole slaw was meh. We won’t be back anytime soon.
