Great little family owned spot. Food cooked to order and sides made from scratch. Everything was delicious. I tried the Cajun catfish nuggets and a couple chicken wings and everything was tasty and crispy. It’s awesome finding these place still exist. I’ll be back.
Classic place serving up seafood to go. The food is slightly expensive but it's very tasty. I had shrimp and scallops, and the scallops in particular were delicious, fried to perfection. My father went here frequently when he was a child and when I'm in the area I always make a stop.
This is a take out spot. Seafood options, plain or breaded, sold by the pound and can be fried on the spot. Side items and Dips are available for additional prices. Not sure what all the options are.
Prices are a bit high for the QUALITY and PORTION sizes of foods put out. Catfish nuggets fell flat on taste. Also, they fried up to little crunchy breaded fish bits and pieces. The hush puppies were over fried and fried in same fish grease making them taste like old fried crunchy fish balls instead of hush puppies. Ate a few pieces of each and trashed the rest. Dissatisfied and disappointed at the fact that this is the only fried fish spot I know north. Needless to say, I will not be back.
My experience was lackluster so there isn't much for me to recommend. Quite frankly, I'm skeptical of the recent 5 star reviews. I can assure you that there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING 5 star about the Fish Keg, PeriodT. All or most of products used can be purchased at your local grocer.
*Dips that should be complimentary to the paying customer are available for a fee.
I went here about two weeks ago and ordered about $100 worth of food. I ordered the walleye catfish, catfish nuggets, shrimp and perch with potato salad, fries and hush puppies. I was INCREDIBLE DISAPPOINTED by the seafood, didn’t really have much taste, lacking seasoning. Everything else was fine but will NEVER go back for the seafood. Potato salad was amazing tho I have to say!
Used to come here in my 20s, 30s, 40s 50s. Tried it in my 60s and it was not the quality nor variety of my past experiences. No more scallops on the menu. Shrimp quality was good but the batter coating was overcooked and lacked flavor. Pricey fir the quantity Premises needs reorganization and a refresh. Service was fast and courteous so I will try again because I remember what it once was.
Okay, I confess I only stopped in because I love their sign and wanted a t-shirt. Which they have, in multiple colors. 👍
Had a taste for some fried scallops and thought about this place. Haven't been in while so I thought I would check out the menu. I didnt see scallops on menu and decided to call. found out they stopped serving scallops months ago. Really?! So disappointing
Hands down the best fried shrimp and fish in town! Everything is not only delicious but it has it's something extra that makes it super delicious.
You can hear the crunch across the table! Best flavored hush puppies. Reasonable prices..just go!
