Catfish Restaurants in east TN

[jabogitlu]

Can't believe no one has mentioned Huck Finn's or Pop's Catfish in Pigeon Forge!

I'm a simple guy though, for me the price / quality to beat is CAPTAIN D's!

Calhouns on the River in downtown has some good catfish.

I love fried catfish every now and then, being a MS native, and so much of the nation's catfish coming from there . I know there's a C O C K of the Walk in Nashville, which we love, but I'm hoping to find a good catfish restaurant closer than two hours from the Knoxville area.

We love crispy fried fillets with the trimmings. The only place I've found so far that has good tasting fried catfish is Cowboy's over in Dandridge, and even that's not consistent. Aubrey's (Knoxville & Maryville) has a 'fancified' catfish that's good, but I long for just the simple fried catfish.

Anybody got a place they can recommend?

I haven't eaten there in a while but Dandridge Seafood House use to be good.

We're going to Allison's tonight in Friendsville. Here is a website that has a comprehensive list of catfish restaurants in TN. In case posting the site isn't allowed just google catfish restaurants Tennessee or go to catfishrestaurants(dot)com. Happy Eating! >^.^<
