Had All You Can Eat there yesterday for $9.99. I ate 12 pieces with french fries (skin on ) and jalepeno hush pups. He marinates them in some secret mustard sauce (he said it was his dad's old red cross recipe), and fries the pieces up crisp on outside, and tender on inside. Finished with a bread pudding I took home. The special of the day was bread pudding came free with the lunch special or AYCE catfish. Place was hopping yesterday, bar was completely full and food was great. Keep up the good work opie and staff

Around Blackwater. Where Hooper goes from a four lane to a two lane.

Try their Blackened Catfish. It's topped with lump crabmeat in a buttery cream sauce. YUM!

Those directions don't help me at all, I've never been out there.

I'm planning on trying it out next time my dad is in town.

Take I-110 North to the Metro Airport exit and head East. Do not turn untill you get to Our Place on the left, just past Blackwater as soon as Hooper goes from 4 lanes to 2 lanes..............

Fried Catfish is exceptional, the rest of the menu is average.

Wasn't that some Italian guy's place? Sotile's ?

And now that I'm thinking of it wasn't that the name of the place on Airline at Highland that was knocked down and is now the Shell station?
