Nice addition to the neighborhood. The cornbread is a must-have, the shrimp and grits are “Clean your plate” worthy and the Catfish po-boy is fantastic. Very welcoming vibe with really good cocktails.

Get the Catfish Po'Boy and Voodoo Bloody Mary (or virgin) ... Not fried, not oil, lite on slaw. You won't regret it! Also, try the Shrimp & Grits if you're a fan .... Danielle will hook you up (;

Great Vibe. The wait staff is so pleasant and easy going. Get the collard greens, shrimp and grits and jumbalaya. Yum!

Everything on the menu offers a good southern flair. Mac n cheese is awesome, had the mushrooms they were great ,did not have room for dessert but the bread pudding looked good.

Jambalaya, crawfish bisque, and oyster selection were winners. Get the Sazerac cocktail. It's faithful to the New Orleans version.

Gumbo and Blackened Catfish Po'Boy over rice are a must. Don't skip the cornbread and appetizer shrimp. Cans of Heady Topper from VT are a nice touch. Great slice of Cajun in Crown Heights.

Must try the corn bread. Its to die for. Great lighting and atmosphere. The food is tasty. The bar is cool and the bar tenders are friendly. Gone back a few times already .

The biscuits come with a jam and a cinnamon butter that is so dang good. Shrimp and grits are good but should be a tad spicier and flavorful. A nice franks hot sauce concoction would be grand.

New Orleans-style restaurant that also draws a bar crowd. While many dishes aren't perfect, the place is a homey and satisfying addition to the neighborhood.
Rebecca ChadwickFebruary 22, 2015
This place is great. Amazing cornbread and po boys. The deviled eggs appetizers are a must. Lots of different kinds of Abita beers.

Catfish Bar and Restaurant are offering Southern goodies such as gumbo, jambalaya and po’ boys. Cocktails are of course New Orleans-themed - try the the Creole Bloody Mary Read more

Have one of their bloody Mary's - they are incredible. Everything else is generally awesome too! My fave place to eat in Brooklyn.

I have to say I had the most amazing time here. Brian and Aaron working the bar was soooooooo awesome!!! " see what happened was....... I'll be back again and again" :-)

The gumbo is smoky and delicious and the boudin balls are the perfect hearty savory snack to nibble with cocktails. The host Brian is AMAZING and made our evening.

One time, I left the city for a week, and spent the whole trip looking forward to the moment when I would return to the city and have Catfish's shrimp & grits with bacon 😍

The country fried steak and eggs comes with grits and is really good. So is the Creole Bloody Mary. Will def be coming back...

Catfish po'boy all day. Unless you go with a friend, in which case get the jambalaya + po'boy and go halfsies. Also bingo on Monday nights is a ton of fun.
Becksdiva BeatonDecember 14, 2014
Love love the atmosphere! Great service and the food is pretty good. If your a person who has never had grits and your trying it for the first time this is the place to go!!
Samantha 💃 LopezMarch 14, 2018
The best mussels i've ever had (the mussels themselves as well as the sauce)!

The cornbread is good, but the flavored butter they serve with it is TO DIE FOR. I also liked how the menu had clearly labeled vegan options. I'll definitely come back.

Be nice to yourself have one of the Andouille dishes. If you're watching carbs (yes ppl still do that) have the plate instead of the Po'Boy they're great
Christine BerriosAugust 8, 2015
All the food is good. Drinks are strong. Brian the bartender is awesome.
Gabriel HayesJanuary 25, 2016
For brunch, I really enjoyed the Country Fried Steak & Eggs with garlic cheese grits and country gravy.

Good luck finding another restaurant these days serving $10 and $12 entrees! Catfish is bringing New Orleans dishes to Crown Heights at very reasonable prices. With a backyard for the warmer months!
KelseyMay 27, 2015
The food and cocktails here are amazing! You can't go wrong with the po boy or jambalaya, it will make you feel like you're in New Orleans.
Chris RyanJanuary 8, 2019
Great southern food and amazing collection of hot sauces at your disposal on each table.
Brian FlescherJuly 15, 2017
The chicken with biscuits and gravy is so f-in good. Also you cant go wrong with the po boy either. Love this place!

The grits and Mac and cheese are both excellent. Fun cocktails too. A good New Orleans style bar.
James GotwaldMarch 12, 2016
Everything! Jambalaya, gumbo, oysters, stuffed mushrooms...I could go on!
Renz PeeJuly 5, 2015
The chicken fried steak was absolutely delicious. I'm not a grits person but those tasted really good but that apple pie they served for dessert was the TRUTH. I almost ordered seconds of the pie!
Gabriel HayesJanuary 25, 2016
Great brunch cocktails. Really enjoyed the Milk Punch (brandy, cream, vanilla, sugar & nutmeg).
Big WittMay 4, 2016
Brunch, they absolutely nailed the atmosphere of new Orleans style restaurants as well as the food although i only had the brunch
Soo BrooklynMay 26, 2014
Lydia the bartender was so damn awesome!!! I love her funky attitude and cool tattoo. ** Jambalaya was the best ever felt like I was in New Orleans**
Alan LightfeldtJuly 25, 2013
A reliable rotation of Abita drafts. Don't miss the black eyed peas and andouille sausage side dish - tasty and big enough to be a modest main.
Felipe ManchenoJanuary 24, 2020
The best Catfish I've ever tried. A plus if you go to the patio.
Jenn AllenNovember 16, 2015
Mac n cheese is heavenly! Collards, jambalaya, grits are delicious!!!
IfeoluwaDecember 18, 2014
Hurricane tastes like happiness in a glass, the crawfish Mac 'n' cheese is melty, fiery, crawfish-y goodness. Was disappointed in the po' boy though. If you want good a good po' boy, check out NoBar.
Sara 🌈⚔🍾December 22, 2015
It's not as authentically Cajun as I had hoped, but still tasty. The drinks and the service are awesome!
Adam MayMarch 28, 2016
Dollar Oysters during happy hour, and the fried chicken po' boy is amazing. Checkout the garden in the back.
Hayden 👋🏻January 27, 2019
Mac & Cheese with bacon to start and follow it up with some shrimp ‘n grits. 🤤
Gwendy Glamarr B.July 7, 2013
beer was warm. My hurricane was ok... Ive had better. Crawfish Mac & cheese was the shit (good)!! Catfish poboy was good, not super special. They do good with the spice.. Perfectly warm not too hot
Alyx CullenAugust 20, 2014
Great brunch place with solid Bloody Marys and hearty breakfast foods. Catfish po boy hit the spot.
Michaela Floryanzia-DavisDecember 1, 2018
The shrimp and grits is excellent on the brunch menu. And the voodoo bloody Mary is a meal in itself!!!
Shafana Mckie-DerrickSeptember 17, 2013
Catfish is totally AWESOME.. Fave drink the Pims Cup( cumber lemonade spiked). the jambalaya,craw-fish mac and cheese is freakin amazing.
Desiree GFebruary 4, 2016
Shrimp and grits with a side of pancakes OR biscuits. So many drink options, it's impossible to not find anything.

First timer? Get the blackened catfish over rice. Finish all of it.

Upcycled ambiance, comfortable, long bar, $1 oysters, nice staff and a garden. An oasis on Bedford.

$1 oysters, $2 off all beers. Best happy hour in the neighborhood and amazing New Orleans-style food to boot

I had a Campari on the rocks. The food portions are small but very tasty. Nice little spot.
