One of the few really good fish eatery's in Lubbock. A variety of fish dining options are available, but be sure to order the beans and rice side, it's delicious. My favorite fish served there is the simple white fish, tremendously flavorful and very mild. Do yourself a culinary favor and visit this eatery.

The Catch has the best cajun dishes in Denton, hands down. If you like really good cajun cooking - try this place today.

Absolutely love their Caesar salad w/ blackened shrimp. Everything else I've tried there has been very good and well seasoned too. Portions are also generous and they make everything to order.

Not only is the food incredibly priced but the service is impeccable! Jessica was sweet as can be and talked to us like we were old friends, would return simply for the hospitality! Every dish is incredible and I highly recommend their frozen margaritas - always get the swirl! Easily becoming a regular costumer!

The food was really good! However, when we were finished eating and cleaning up, a lady came to us saying we did not pay the full amount. You pay before you eat here. We paid and received a receipt. However, she demanded more money from us. I told her to talk to her cashier, who was hiding in back. She went back and came back and demanded more money again. We gave her the money and left. If this interaction wouldn’t have happened, they’d have some loyal customers, however now I do not want to return.

I had the fried catfish & my daughter had the fried catfish & shrimp combo. We had been planning on trying The Catch for a while & finally had the pleasure. The catfish was some of the best I've ever had. The fries were perfectly seasoned & the hush puppies were fried balls of happiness. I absolutely recommend this place. Now I do plan to literally eat my way through the menu. I can't wait to go again!

We have been to this location several times and the food was good. My wife and I went there today around 6. They were busy. My wife got the crablegs. I got the French Quarter Plate. They brought our food out, and my food was not hot at all. My wife took it back. She went to eating her crawlers. It took almost 10 minutes to get my other plate. It came to the table and was not hot again! I took it up to the counter. There was a young guy there. I asked him to stick his finger in the ettuffee and see if it was hot. He stuck his finger in it and said, It's a little warm. The second plate was not hot! The hush puppies were cool and hard. I was done after this and just asked for a refund on my meal. The young man told me he was sorry but I never got an apology from the kitchen. Then while we were sitting there while my wife ate her crablegs, that she informed me after we left, they were not really good and hot when they came out. She ate them all though. A lady came out to a table beside us and told the couple there was a balance left on their bill. He had paid cash and got change back. They were done eating before this happened. I could not believe this was happening. I don't know if they have changed managers or what but it is not the same. I am not sure if we will go back. I left a good review before.

The crab is amazing, the seasoning was excessive but the actual quality of the crab was AMAZING. We got the French quarter too: hush puppies 5/10, shrimp etoufee 7/10, fried catfish 10/10, tartar sauce was a bit too lemony for me but was still good, the bang Bang shrimp fried was a 100/10. Amazing. Tables were clean. Was humid inside, but wasn't uncomfortable. Delicious food. Will be back again.

I haven't been to this place much because of the food quality. I started going last month. It was amazing. Then it went back to its former standard. Fish tasted old and dry. Oysters were putrid. Dishes did not taste the same as before, particularly the bang bang shrimp. Everything was dry and overcooked. I threw out $60 worth of food because it was inedible to me.
