Middendorf's...?

Thanks so much!...the spelling error is probably the reason why I couldn't find their website :)

Love their crispy thin-fried. Pretty good shrimp, but they are often overcooked a bit. +1 on the softshell crab if they have them...

Try the shrimp remoulade for an appetizer...its our favorite!

Then I would suggest getting either the catfish and shrimp platter or the oyster, shrimp, and catfish platter. I haven't been since the new owners took over but they haven't changed the menu (from what I hear) and I've never had anything from there I didn't like! Enjoy!

I've been numerous times since they new owners took over and the food hasn't dropped off. In fact, they improved many of the dishes while not meddling with the classics (catfish, etc).

If anything, I'd attribute a dropoff to post-Gustav problems.

So what'd you end up getting?

I went there last night. Got the seafood platter. Was really good they do give you a ton of catfish on it so you really dont have to worry about getting JUST the catfish. Meal was very good for the catfish. Everything else though I have had better elsewhere. But the catfish is what they specialize in and it is very very good. Although its sometimes so thin that you may just have breading which I thought was wierd. Great place though.

My one complaint is that the catfish has no spice in the breading.

That's one of the best things about it, in my opinion.

It's all about fresh catfish, fried to perfection.

If anyone thinks the thin's, too thin, just get the thick. It's cut like most places do it, and is really good as well.

I go back and forth between the two. As I think there's something to be said for both.

Oh, I don't know. But, they should probably let you.

I just meant that I go back and forth on different visits, though.
