    Great food! The service was really good, although I’ve heard sometimes it’s not the best. But what makes this place special is the value! The crab is so amazing and the catfish and shrimp are the best in Florida. If you’re really hungry, they have all you can eat Crab.

    Once again a trip to Catfish Dewey’s proves to be an enjoyable experience. The friendly greeting, great service, and wonderful food make for a great dining experience. There’s no wonder after 40years they still are packed with satisfied diners. I can’t wait to go back again.

    If we could give six stars we would. We’re from out of state visiting for work. Seafood is a treat being landlocked at home. This was our second time, and neither disappointed.
