Best catfish in the Bay Area hands down! They’re an older African American couple that drives down from Reno three days out of the week to open up the doors. Only complaint is the hours aren’t consistent but understandably so. I drove from Vallejo one day on the weekend just for their fish that I had been craving. It is a MUST TRY 🙂

Perfectly crispy catfish with a special spice blend that keeps me coming back for more. So far I keep getting the catfish cause by the time I get there they’re always sold out of everything else and as long as they don’t run out of that catfish I’ll keep coming back.

This place is awesome!!! It’s small but just right for someone who loves seafood. For several years I’ve eating seafood cooked personally by Mr. Joshua himself. This place is an historical landmark and gives Oakland the recognition of having good taste!

Greatest fish in the East Bay. But we are worried about you. The shop has been closed for some time. We’re hoping you’re ok!❤️

I got the 333 combo with three fried oysters, three fried shrimp, and three pieces of fried catfish. Everything was cooked PERFECTLY! Moist and tender meat with a crispy crust. Absolutely classic. The combo was a lot of food! It came with Louisiana style hot sauce, tartar sauce, and ketchup, as well as plenty of fries.

Good takeout only seafood place in the Fruitvale neighborhood of Oakland, no amenities. Would recommend for anyone who likes fried fish and other kinds of seafood.

The owner is super sweet and the food is amazing. My family is from the South and this is exactly how everyone makes their fried fish. It truly tastes like home. Plus the prices are so reasonable.

This place is around the corner from my house and I am so lucky!! The fish is great, the portions are huge and they are such a sweet, thoughtful couple!! But what we really go back for is the shrimp. Awesome!!
