The Tackle Box Catfish, Seafood, Southern Home Cooking

So the food was actually pretty good. But the waitress knew almost nothing about the menu and the menu was real misleading. It says choose two sides and that your food is served with also salad/bread, but then told actually you can only choose one side if it comes with salad and bread. Then when we asked, 3 different people basically said oh I don’t know that’s just what the owner says. Didn’t try to fix it just said oh yeah sorry. So on top of that they gave us chips instead of bread with our queso and forgot one of our sides! I initially ordered the pork chops and was then told oh sorry we are out of those so I had to choose something else. For a Saturday night there was our group and maybe 2 other tables. Which must say something about the service. All in all the food was pretty good! Service not so much. And their “specials” just mean $1 off the regular price.

Quite possibly the worst service I’ve experienced in quite a while. After being seated we waited 15 minutes before we were approached about ordering drinks. We ordered drinks and food at the same time, and after nearly an hour wait we were told that their computer system crashed and they lost two of our orders. We were assured our orders would be ready soon. 15 minutes later, still no food and haven’t received a drink refill since we initially received our drinks. We left a $10 bill on the table and left. I highly recommend not going here. If I could give less than 1 star I would.

The catfish was good but the senior catfish had two thin pieces of fish that were tough and hard to cut, much less eat. But the fish on the regular menu were large and soft. The two piece regular catfish dinner is only 99 cents more and well worth it. The sides were fabulous. Fried squash was thin crispy with a dusting of cornmeal. The fried okra was also dusted with seasoned cornmeal. Tomato relish was light refreshing. All in all, a very goid choice for lunch.Parking: Loads of parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp.

WAITED ONE HOUR FOR FOOD. Never got food. Also, never got a drink refill. Waitress was inattentive and could not count to three.

I love the fried squash. And I love the shrimp with grits and cheese. The food is delicious.The staff is very friendly.My only complaint is its always hot inside.
