Wow, really neat! Didn't serve pizza like the other Papa John's locations, but fish instead. Kind of shocked, would have given one star as Papa John's isn't a fish place. But I was really surprised when I had the catfish basket. Not to lie, it would be way better with lemon (which they DO give you) but it would be cool if they have them already put it and ask if you want extra. Would definitely recommend this place.
Fridays are usually a time to go a little further out and try something different. Today we went to lunch at Crispy Catch on Perkins. We had driven past it many times and decided to give it a go. Rather no frills kind of place with an outdoor eating area - even today at 92 F outside, it was pleasant in the shade. We had the catfish tacos - really tasty with the cilantro lime sauce. The hushpuppies had the right amount of crunch and sweetness. Finally, great music playing on the speakers - road trip music from XM radio.
UPDATE: You have got to try their newest creation - the Baco. It's a boudin ball taco and it's amazing! It's not on the menu (yet), but ask and you shall receive. You won't be disappointed.
Great fresh, locally sourced seafood cooked to order & served with a smile. A wonderful place to grab a bite of Louisiana seafood. It's a place I call the "Raising Cane's" of seafood. I love it.
Was a little concerned since they are in the mall. But the food was amazing. Fresh. Hot. Cooked perfectly. Wish they would open in Lafayette!! Will definitely eat there again. Staff was friendly and helpful. Great experience.
Surprisingly good seafood for a food court location (helps that it's locally-owned). Specializes in fried fish and shrimp, as well as fish tacos. I usually just get the fish, but both that and the shrimp are pretty good and portioned nicely. Employees are friendly, and food is ready at a reasonable pace.
One of the more expensive food court restaurants, but worth the money, in all honesty. Not a bad choice if you're just in the mood for some fried fish and don't feel like going to a sit-down place.
The food is not just REEL good, but it is made REEL fresh as well. While the price is somewhat high for a mall food court restaurant, the quality and portion sizes are very reasonable. Staff is very friendly and accommodating.
While visiting Baton Rouge (from the North East) I happened upon this seafood gem at the Mall. OMGoodness! The catfish & shrimp were delicious, fresh & cooked to order and the staff was professional & friendly! I d agree that it s the Seafood Raising Canes - both are delicious! In the 2 weeks we ve been here I ve been here 4 times. I m not big on all the sides so I always make my own box full of catfish & shrimp. Wish the a la cart wasn t so expensive. Now if only they had some creamy cheese grits then it would really be on & poppin for breakfast! I ll definitely be back before heading home. Between this & Raising Cane s which is right next door, I know I ve gained some weight during this vacation!
Seriously some of the best fish tacos. Puts lava cantina to shame. Great price, great flavor, the hush puppies killer. Super friendly staff, I've been coming here since it opened.
The food is warm and crisp as they bright it out to you. The staff are cheerful and caring toward their customers
10+++ Triple A Rating! My daughter and I ate at the Crispy Catch in the Mall of LA Saturday evening. "Mom, this is the best catfish I've had in a long time!" I agree with my daughter 100%!
Additionally, words escape me at the service given by CALI & ADRIAN... extremely helpful, kind, considerate, and with big smiles to boot! WONDERFUL! I absolutely despise going to the mall... Eating at Crispy Catch made this a 10+ experience! Thank you Cali & Adrian! And btw, please tell your parents "great job on raising you fine young people!"
