Catfish fans, take heed: Barrow's Catfish is back in town at 8300 Earhart Blvd., Suite 103, in Gert Town.
Barrow's Catfish was originally founded in 1943. According to its website, the family-owned business, which had two locations at its peak, operated for decades across several generations until Hurricane Katrina wiped out both restaurants.
Now, reopened by the same Barrow family, Barrow's Catfish is back to serving fried catfish plates with sides like potato salad, french fries and salads.
So far, the new catfish restaurant has earned a 4.5-star rating out of three reviews on Yelp.
Zina H., who was the first Yelper to review the new spot on July 9, wrote, "Same great taste! Looking forward to my next visit. I went during lunch hour and was able to dine in and get out within an hour."
Michele K. added, "Same great taste! Same great portions! I ordered the large and it was more then enough; I had leftovers for breakfast the next day."
Swing on by and get reacquainted: Barrow's Catfish is open from 11 a.m.–9 p.m. on Monday-Thursday and 11 a.m.–10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. (It's closed on Sunday.)
