Loaves Fishes Family - Wilmer

Really neat family owned restaurant. Only open Thursday, Friday and Saturday so make sure you go on a day they are open. Great fried Catfish. There cake pieces are HUGE.Food: 5/5

Tried to eat here around two weeks ago and ended up taking my wife and mother to another place, some 25 miles away because the moment we entered the restaurant we were welcomed with the option to wait along with around thirty some odd people waiting for tables even though the parking lot was barely half full. Frankly if you can't handle anymore customers than that you shouldn't be operating. If this eatery is anything like most, in our current economy, they likely won't last much longer anyway.

The all you can eat is a scam . They start with a cheap appetizer and finally bring you a dwarf size serving of catfish which I ate before the waitress was out of sight and she didn't return for 15 minutes and then with another dwarf serving. They just try to wait out your appetite hoping your food will settle before you can eat $2 worth of catfish. If you go DO NOT get the all you can eat catfish unless you're on a diet , in that case it'll be perfect .

This place and another place within a 30 mile range: are eerily similar to one another. They give you the same app (hush puppies with cheese) and offer many of the same dishes. It is also is decorated similar. However, the grease was old. Our fried pickle appetizer disappointing. The seafood platter was all cooked in the same grease as the pickles and burnt hush puppies. I don’t know if the fried pickle are house made; they do not taste house made. The food was saturated with grease. This place also rivals the movie “Grease.” The catfish filets were small and did not have a pleasant taste.If you are used to quality seafood, you might want to skip this establishment. If you love a fresh taste and hate burnt flour, don’t come here. If you want to make your step parents upset bring them here. We went in during a slow time and the person handling the money was also handling the cakes. It’s just something about where money and credit cards have been, and handling food. The service was decent. It was not great nor war is deplorable. There were a couple of things (lemons) that took about five minutes to get to us.

I usually get the fried filets but i tried the lemon pepper grilled fish this time. Both are very good! The spinach dip with fried bowtie pasta is amazing!Food: 5/5
