Arnold's Grub Shack - Paducah

Great food, I could eat here every day and be happy forever

I stopped by one Sunday afternoon and tried the country fried steak, which was fantastic. I also took home the last serving of chicken dressing, and it was just as impressive. The sides were amazing as well, particularly the baked mac and cheese. If you're craving hearty Southern home cooking, Arnold's will definitely leave you satisfied.

WOW! We just stopped here to grab some fried chicken and catfish for dinner later but instead of waiting we ate ourselves into a coma! This is by far the best southern home cooking I've ever had, (don't tell my grandma I said that! . The catfish was spiced and cooked so well it needed no sauce, the Mac and cheese was sinfully rich, the fried okra had the perfect crunch and flavor, THE COLLARD GREENS OMG, fried chicken was crisp and delicious and the bananna pudding must have weighed 5 lbs and was something I'll daydream about! I almost forgot to mention the astounding jalapeño cornbread and the best hushpuppies I've ever tasted.No pics cause cause we devoured it...

This place serves the best ribs in Paducah! They are consistently cooked to perfection and just fall off the bone—absolutely delicious! You should definitely give them a try! The staff is wonderful too!

Honestly... I came here because of the good reviews on Google. We arrived to find multiples items not available, and I had to settle for something I hadn't planned to order. Maybe they were having a hard time, but our experience was not good tbh.
