"I called & placed my order & he said 10 mins. Lol it was ready when I got there. & HOT! Fish & shrimp platter w/ Mac n Cheese, & Green beans.... & dinner roll & choc cake & a Rc soda to flush it down for $15 That fish tasted like he caught it & fried with perfection of golden brown with a lil Krunch, very tasty as well as the shrimp. Green beans & Mac n Cheese felt like u was at home & mom duke's cooked dinner....overall was that fish was hitting. My only recommendation is could use some seasoning on sides. & the Mac & Cheese u gotta do it right or leave it alone. But I will be back tomorrow for the brisket , greens, yams, & Mac & cornbread"

"A little surprised to find out this is a private home. Conversation with the owner I found out they’re saving for a food truck. I hope they can accomplish that. It will help build business much faster. Great catfish and shrimp. Chef Steve and his wife are super nice. I’m visiting from out of town so not sure when I’ll be back, but I’ll try next time I’m in Phoenix. Give it a try!"

"Best fried fish I've had since moving to AZ! Hit your plate with a little creole seasoning and some Louisiana hot sauce and its a done deal! I think it's a fair price for what you get at $15. The folks running this business are nice as can be. I recommend asking to add an extra piece of fish to your plate if you're HUNGRY. The corn bread muffin was dry, which some people like, but I prefer it softer. I will be ordering again in the future."
