Our story

About The Fish House

Plates of catfish, shrimp and sides on a table

Good seafood, no fuss, since 2021.

A locally owned and operated seafood eatery in West Monroe serving catfish, frog legs, po'boys and hand-cut fries in a warm, family-friendly room with attentive service.

We hand-bread our catfish, shrimp and oysters to order and fry them golden. The hushpuppies, ranch and remoulade are made in our kitchen, the shrimp come from the Gulf, and the catfish is American farm-raised "Pride of the Pond." Come for the weekday lunch specials, stay for the boiled crawfish when it's in season.

Bring the kids, bring the ballteam, bring your church group. There's room, and the staff will make you feel like you've been coming for years.

We host live music in the dining room. Dates are posted on Facebook, or call and ask about the next one.
